What Is SAP S/4HANA Settlement Management?

SAP S/4HANA Settlement Management is based on the SAP ECC Agency Business (LO-AB) and Settlement Management functionalities. This module is used in SAP for all relevant financial settlement processes. It enables customer-specific solutions in the area of compensation settlement, including freight cost settlement. The functionality of SAP Condition Contract Management (SAP CCM) can be utilized for this purpose.
