SAP Table BKPF

Accounting Document Header

What Is the SAP BKPF Table?

BKPF is a financial accounting table that stores the header details of accounting documents. It contains the document header level information such as company code, accounting document number, fiscal year, document type, document date, posting date, document currency, header text, and user details who created the document.

In SAP, within a client (MANDT), an accounting document is uniquely identified by

  • Company Code
  • Fiscal year
  • Accounting Document Number

Every Accounting document has one document header and contain multiple line items. The document header information is stored in BKPF and its corresponding document line items information is stored in the BSEG table.

SAP FI consultants, users & support team uses the BKPF table to analyse the accounting document header details, verify posting details and troubleshoot document postings.
