Why audit-ready AP needs the posting to happen in SAP, not in middleware

Many cloud AP tools post to SAP using a single technical service account. That means every invoice — regardless of who approved it — lands in SAP under the same identity. Your audit trail now stops at the middleware.

Fin4Sight posts under the actual approver. The standard SAP audit log records who posted what and when, exactly as if they had keyed it in — because, as far as SAP is concerned, they did.

For SOX-aligned controls, that distinction is the difference between an audit-ready process and a finding.
