Interfacing transactions in a single run group

You can interface transactions from a non-Infor system to Global Ledger.

  1. Create the import file according to the business class layout for GLTransactionInterface.
  2. Import the file to GLTransactionInterface using any of the Landmark import methods. See the Financials and Supply Management Data Interface Guide.
  3. Select Processing > Transaction Interface > Transaction Interface.
  4. Select Actions > Interface Transactions.
  5. Specify this information:
    Accounting Entity
    To only interface transactions that are associated with a specific accounting entity, select the accounting entity. If this field is blank, then transactions are for all accounting entities in the run group are included.
    Edit Only No Update
    Select this check box to check the run group for errors. If there are records that contain errors, they will be marked so they can be manually corrected before running the transaction interface in update mode.
    Partial Update
    Select this check box to interface the records that have no errors. Records in error are marked and must be corrected before running this action.

    If this check box is not selected, then transactions are interfaced only if all transactions for that entity have no errors.

    Split Journals By Journal Code
    Select this check box to group transactions with the same journal code into the same journal.
    Bypass Organization Code
    Select this check box to convert the data to accounts without validating the organization code. Bypassing the organization code improves system performance when the actual accounting entity and accounting unit are used instead of an organization code.
    Bypass Account Code
    Select this check box to convert the data to accounts without validating the account code. Bypassing the account code improves system performance when the actual account is used instead of an account code.
    Bypass Structure Relation Validation
    Select this check box if you do not want the interface to validate the structure relations that are defined for your finance structure. If you do not select this check box, then structure relation validation errors prevent the data interface.

    Bypassing structure relation validation improves performance but should only be selected when the data has been pre-validated.

    Interface in Detail
    Select this check box if transactions should not be summarized.
    Bypass Negative Rate Edit
    Select this check box if you have interface records with negative rates and you want to preserve the negative rates for those records in Global Ledger.
    Currency Table
    Select DAILY_RATES for the currency table.
  6. For transactions with budget errors, select Reset All Errors and update the code block, accounting string, or the amount.
  7. Click OK to process this action now or click Schedule to schedule the process to run later. The interface request is submitted as a scheduled action.
    • If the transactions are successfully interfaced, then they can be viewed as Released journal entries. View the results of the interface action on Processing > Transaction Interface > Interface Run Results.
    • Transactions that have errors are not interfaced and are marked as errors. Open each transaction to view the nature of the error and to correct the transaction.
  8. After correcting all of the errors, select Actions > Interface Transactions to interface remaining records.
