What is Cardinality ?

Cardinality is the Smart Way to Handle Repeating or Reusable Element in Tosca.

Cardinality :- Cardinality is all about how many times you can use a module's attribute in one test step. Instead of copying and pasting the same control over and over, you can cleverly reuse the same control with different attributes. It's a smart and efficient way to work.

Why use Cardinality:-  It's great for managing repeating elements like table rows, lists, and product tiles. It lets you apply multiple validations or actions on the same control, helping to keep your test cases clean, scalable, and easy to maintain.

Real-Life Example: Imagine you have a shopping list with 10 products. You want to check each product's name and price. Instead of making 10 separate controls, you just set the product row’s Cardinality to 1-N, and Tosca takes care of each one for you automatically.

NOTE:- Use Cardinality wisely when working with dynamic or repeating elements and pair it with loops or conditions for even more power! It’s not just about saving effort. it’s about writing clean, efficient, future-proof tests.

What is F-53 ?

F-53 is used to manually post payments made to vendors without referencing open items or invoices automatically, usually for direct payments or adjustments. It’s a non-automatic, manual outgoing payment transaction.

📌 Steps to Post Vendor Payment in F-53:
1. T-code: F-53
2. Bank Account (GL Account for Outgoing Bank)
3. Posting Date & Document Date
4. Amount to be Paid
5. Vendor Account
6. Choose “Open Items” to clear against an invoice (if applicable)
7. Assign Payment Amount and Save

📍 Why it matters:
This process ensures accurate clearing of vendor invoices, proper cash flow tracking, and up-to-date financial statements.
