Answer 1

To post a simple general ledger document in SAP Fiori, you must create and (2) assign a posting period variant and (3) maintain number ranges and document types. These configurations are essential for ensuring postings occur within the correct fiscal periods and that transactions are properly classified.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few important configuration elements you must set up before posting your first basic general ledger record using the SAP Fiori app in a test environment. Of the options given, the following are the two correct responses:

1. A variation for the posting period needs to be made and allocated.

2. Document types and the range of numbers must be preserved.

Posting period variants are critical as they define the periods in which financial transactions can be posted. They ensure that entries are made in the correct fiscal period. Meanwhile, ensuring that number ranges and document types are maintained is equally important. Number ranges determine the number that will be assigned to your documents and document types help classify accounting transactions within the ledger.

The other two options provided—maintaining line item text templates and maintaining tax types and tax codes—are not necessarily required for posting a simple document, though could be relevant depending on the specifics of the entry being made.
