What is the result of posting a vendor's invoice?
Answer : C
Posting a vendor's invoice in SAP S/4HANA results in several important updates and document generations, one of which is the update of the purchase order history (C). This update provides a comprehensive record of all transactions associated with a specific purchase order, including the receipt of goods and invoice verification, ensuring transparency and traceability in procurement processes.
The material ledger document (A) is not directly generated by posting a vendor's invoice but rather by material movements and valuation changes in inventory.
Clearing the vendor's account of open items (B) occurs when payments are made against the invoices, not when the invoice itself is posted.

What is the purpose of using a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question
Answer : A, D, E
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) in project management is used for several purposes, including:
To evaluate aggregated data (A): WBS allows for the aggregation and analysis of project data at various levels, facilitating project monitoring and control.
To allocate budgets (D): Budgets are allocated to different elements of the WBS, enabling detailed financial planning and control at each level of the project.
To define responsibilities (E): WBS elements are associated with specific responsibilities, clarifying the roles and accountability within the project team.
To schedule warehouse tasks (B) is not a function of the WBS; warehouse tasks are managed through logistics and supply chain management systems.
To manage equipment (C) is also not a direct function of the WBS; equipment management is typically handled through asset management or maintenance systems.
You have found a new source of supply for a material. When maintaining the Business Partner information for the Supplier role, which organizational unit should be extended?
Answer : A
When maintaining the Business Partner information for the Supplier role and you have found a new source of supply for a material, the organizational unit that should be extended is the Purchasing Organization (A). The Purchasing Organization is responsible for procurement activities and negotiations with suppliers. By extending the Business Partner information to include the Purchasing Organization, you ensure that the supplier can be associated with specific procurement activities and conditions set by that Purchasing Organization.
Extending the Company Code (B) is necessary for financial transactions and accounting, but it is not specifically related to procurement activities.
A Plant (C) is typically the organizational unit for which materials are procured, but it does not need to be extended in the Business Partner information for procurement purposes.
A Purchasing Group (D) is responsible for day-to-day buying activities, but extending the Business Partner information to include a Purchasing Group is not a standard requirement.
