We are comparing 3 different "Sales" figures and I wonder if you can confirm my understanding about the differences between them:
The parameters we use would be exactly the same, ie the same period, to include ALL Items and ALL Business Partners
1. In SALES/Sales Reports/Sales Analysis/ Analysys by Customer = £ XXXXX (for 2011) My understanding is that this figure includes:
+ A/R Item Invoices
- A/R Item credit Notes
+ Service Invoices
- Service Credit Notes
So this report does not include Adjustment Journals posted to Sales Nominal Accounts
2. In SALES/Sales Reports/Sales Analysis/ Analysis by Item = £ XXXXX1 (for 2011) My understanding is that this figure includes+
+ Items from Item A/R Sales Invoices
- Items from A/R Sales Credit Notes
So this report does NOT contain Service Invoices so that may explain the difference between 1 and 2. Please confirm if this is correct.
3. In the Financial Profit and Loss SALES figure is £XXXXX51 (for 2011)
This figure is different from 1 and 2 because it contains 1 + Adjustment Journals.
I would be grateful if you can confirm the contents of these reports and how they are arrived at in SAP.

Juan
