In the release of S/4HANA 1809, SAP introduced the Prediction and Commitment Extension Ledger, which enables the posting of Sales Orders (before delivery or billing) to the Universal Journal to aid Revenue and profitability Forecasting (which is traditionally accomplished in Costing Based CO-PA, using Record Type A).
