Setting the business object document configuration properties

The business object document configuration properties must be set before using the BOD processes to create files.

  1. From System Administration, select Integrations > Business Object Documents.
  2. In the Primary pane, click Set up.
  3. Select an organization.
  4. On the Setup tab, specify this information:
    Default BOD Accounting Entity
    Enter the accounting entity that matches that accounting entity from the application that is sending the BODs. For example, for Infor Financials and Supply Management, the accounting entity matches the Finance Enterprise Group.
    Default BOD Location
    Select the default location that is associated with the HROrganization.
    Send Identification Number
    Switch to send the employee ID number in BODs.
    When this switch is enabled, the identification number defaults first to the primary payroll country on employee third-party payroll. If there is no primary payroll country on employee third-Party payroll, the HR Location country on the employee’s primary work assignment is used for the default.
    Home Country Included In Identification Number Defaulting
    Switch to include the employee’s Home Country as part of the current defaulting process. If no identification number is found through the Employee Third Party Payroll or the work assignment location, then the identification number associated with the Home Country is used.
    Use First Identification Number If None Found With Defaulting
    Switch to determine the identification number if no numbers are found through defaulting. If an employee identification number exists, regardless of the country, the first number that was entered for the employee in the Employee Identification Number business class is used.
    AES Key
    Enter the Advanced Encryption Standard key that is used to encrypt a field value in BOD.
  5. From the BODs tab, in the Active column, enter Yes for all of business object documents you wish to use.
