  Key Concepts: 
  Sales relevance is a feature in SAP Financial Accounting (FI) that allows users to assign a sales document to a financial document. This allows users to track the financial impact of sales transactions and to ensure that all sales documents are accounted for in the financial system. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use sales relevance, users must first create a sales document in the system. This document can be either an invoice or a credit memo. Once the document is created, users can assign it to a financial document such as an accounts receivable or accounts payable document. This will link the two documents together and allow users to track the financial impact of the sales transaction. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning a sales document to a financial document, it is important to ensure that all relevant information is included. This includes the customer name, invoice number, and any other relevant information that may be needed for tracking purposes. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all documents are properly linked so that they can be easily tracked and reported on.
