What is Accounts Payable (AP)?
The FI sub-ledger that manages supplier invoices, liabilities, and outgoing payments.
In S/4HANA, supplier master data is maintained as a Business Partner with a supplier role. AP integrates with MM invoice verification and the payment run. Duplicate invoice checks and payment-block handling are typical test cases.
