Master Data Setup

Initialization script
  • An initialization script must be written which uses the DAL (DAL.NEW) of the involved tables to create rows in the database tables mentioned in the sections below.
  • Naming conventions mentioned in this document should be strictly adhered to. Otherwise, mixing up with (future) standard data cannot be ruled out.
Business objects (tfgld454)

This table shows the business objects that will be part of integration transactions displayed in, for example, the Integration Transactions (tfgld4582m000) session.

FieldDescriptionFormatDomainMandatory *Comments

* For external data, this setting may be different from the table field’s property.

Elements (tfgld456)

This table shows the elements that will be logged related to integration transactions, and will be primarily used for ledger account and dimension mapping. The elements are displayed when, for example, you set up the mapping scheme.

Integration document types (tfgld457)

Elements by integration document type (tfgld458)

This table shows the elements that will be logged for a particular integration document type, and that can be used within the mapping scheme for ledger account and dimension mapping.

Additional procedure steps

After running the initialization script, complete these steps:

  1. To update the business object and integration document type language dependent descriptions, in the Integration Parameters (tfgld4150s000) session, from the appropriate menu, select Initialize Descriptions.
  2. In the Period Handling by Integration Document Type (tfgld4579m000) session, for each external integration document type – debit/credit combination, set Closed Period Handling to either Post to next open period or Post to current period. (Exception handling is only applicable for internal business objects.)

    Because table tfgld479 must be shared for all financial companies (please check!), you do not need to repeat this step for each individual financial company.
