Question: What is the technology SAP deployed or use to send and fetch data between SAP Fiori and the S/4HANA Backend system ?
To expose SAP data to external environments like UI5/Fiori or HANA, it is crucial to push the data in the form of an API. This is where SAP Gateway CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations come into play. By utilizing SAP OData (Open Data Protocol), developers can generate service links that allow for seamless data manipulation and integration with external applications.

Question: What are the use-case scenario for GR Non-Valuated Purchase Order item ?

Answer: GR Non-Valuated setting is only for Consumable scenario. GR Non-Valuated means for a PO item means there are no FICO postings at point of Goods Receipt AND all FICO postings are delayed until at point of Invoice Verification. The following are possible use case:
- It is commonly used for purchasing of fixed assets, because in most countries you do not post the acquisition until you have the legal back-up which could be happening only at point of Invoice Verification.
- Sometimes the PO is estimated price only for some company and to avoid posting to Expenses Account as estimated prices at point of Goods Receipt, ALL FICO postings are delayed until Invoice Verification for the approved amount to be posted at that time of LIV. (Otherwise if GR based on estimated PO value and Invoice different price will result in Adjustments; therefore, to avoid these kinds of adjustment is to switch to GR non-valuated for the PO item).
- In many cases since for Consumable scenario PO often receive the items purchased + delivery note (DO) + supplier invoice at the same time; the action of GR then Invoice Verify may be redundant step for some practices. Therefore, switch off GR indicator and switch on GR non-valuated indicator to have FICO postings at LIV only.
- There will be likely other use cases for the GR Non-Valuated indicator in the PO item which could be Accounting reasons or Country specific practives.
