• Key Concepts: 
  Exposure subitem is a feature of SAP Transaction Manager (TM) that allows users to manage and monitor their financial exposures. It enables users to define and track the financial exposure of a transaction, such as the amount of money that is at risk in a given transaction. The exposure subitem also allows users to set limits on the amount of exposure that can be taken on in a given transaction. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the exposure subitem, users must first define the exposure limits for each transaction. This can be done by setting a maximum amount of exposure that can be taken on in a given transaction. Once the limits are set, users can then monitor their financial exposures by viewing the exposure subitem in the TM application. The exposure subitem will show the current amount of exposure taken on in each transaction, as well as any changes in the amount of exposure over time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting exposure limits, it is important to consider both the potential risks and rewards associated with taking on a certain amount of exposure. It is also important to consider how much risk you are willing to take on in order to achieve your desired outcome. Additionally, it is important to regularly review your exposure limits and adjust them as needed.
