Uplatz offers a comprehensive self-paced SAP FICO course, designed to equip learners with both foundational and advanced knowledge of SAP Financial Accounting (FI) and Controlling (CO). Delivered through detailed video tutorials, this course includes practical demonstrations and concludes with a Course Completion Certificate.

What is SAP FICO?

SAP FICO is one of the core functional modules in the SAP ERP system, used globally to manage an organization's financial processes. It consists of two tightly integrated components:

  • SAP FI (Financial Accounting) – Handles general ledger, accounts payable and receivable, asset accounting, and financial reporting.

  • SAP CO (Controlling) – Focuses on cost tracking, budgeting, internal orders, and profitability analysis.

Together, they provide end-to-end visibility into financial data and support accurate financial planning, analysis, and decision-making.

Why Learn SAP FICO?

SAP FICO is essential for professionals in finance, accounting, and ERP consulting. With increasing demand for real-time reporting and regulatory compliance, mastering SAP FICO enables you to:

  • Implement and manage financial processes in SAP

  • Map and configure organizational structures and master data

  • Integrate FICO with other modules like MM, SD, and HR

  • Contribute to data migration, configuration, and system testing

  • Prepare for SAP FICO certification and consulting roles
