Which documents can be posted to the Universal Journal?

The Universal Journal in SAP S/4HANA is designed to provide a single source of truth for all financial and controlling information, integrating various processes into a comprehensive framework. This integration allows for a wide range of documents to be posted, including but not limited to financial postings, asset accounting documents, material documents, and even logistics-related messages.

By allowing various types of transactions—from invoices and payments to purchase orders, sales orders, and inventory movements—the Universal Journal enables real-time reporting and analysis across the organization. This inclusivity is what empowers businesses to maintain accurate financial records while simultaneously achieving operational efficiency through integrated data.

The other options, which suggest a limited scope of postings (such as just invoices and payments or solely purchase and sales orders), do not reflect the full capabilities of the Universal Journal, as it accommodates a much broader range of documents essential for comprehensive financial management within SAP S/4HANA.
