CPM BOD integration

Business Object Documents (BODs) are xml files used to exchange information between business applications. BODs are one of the two methods of integrating Infor ERP or FMS applications (source systems) with CPM. Several Infor source systems publish BODs that CPM can consume to update model structure, load data and perform drill through. Other Infor source systems provideCPM specific source views containing structure and financial data. These integrations are designed to make it easier to use Infor ERP or FMS structure and data as the foundation for CPM applications.

This appendix is intended for system administrators using Infor BODs to integrate an Infor source system with CPM. Integration is supported for CPM relational models only.

These BODs are supported for structure:

  • AccountingChart
  • ChartOfAccounts
  • CodeDefinition
  • CurrencyExchangeRateMaster

These BODs are supported for data:

  • SourceSystemGLMovement
  • SourceSystemJournalEntry
  • CurrencyExchangeRateMaster

There are no BODs for Version structure. Accounting Entities referenced within the BODs can correspond to the CPM Organization Unit dimension depending on the configuration. The Accounting Chart defines the code lists used for up to ten custom dimensions.
