| Mapping scheme prerequisitesBefore you can set up an integration mapping scheme, you must perform these
tasks: Set up table sharing In a multifinancial company structure, it is recommended
that the financial companies share the mapping scheme tables and the
reconciliation tables (tables tfgld430 - tfgld495). The financial companies
then all map the integration transactions to the same ledger accounts and
dimensions. You can define exceptions to the shared mapping for individual
integration document types. Note When you start the Mapping Scheme (tfgld4573m000) session, LN checks whether the required tables are correctly shared. If this
is not the case, an error message is displayed listing the tables that are not
correctly shared and you cannot start the session. Initialize mapping scheme data In the Initialize Mapping Scheme Data (tcfin0210m000) session, select the transaction origins
and the mapping elements that must be mapped, and then click Initialize. LN generates the integration document types and retrieves the business objects and mapping elements required for the packages and modules that are selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session. Authorize users to post integration
transactions Users can only post integration transactions if they belong to
an integration user group. In
the Integration User Groups (tfgld4135m000) session, you can define user groups. Set up integration parameters In the Integration Parameters (tfgld4150s000) session, perform these tasks: - Initialize the descriptions of the business objects,
integration document types, and business object attributes, in the installed
languages. On the appropriate menu, click Initialize Descriptions.
- Enter a default transaction type and series for the
integration transactions. Newly entered integration document types are only
inserted automatically on the Document Numbering and Compression tab of the Mapping Scheme (tfgld4573m000) session if a default transaction type and series are
available.
- Select the way in which you want to handle the document
numbers and the batch numbers for the integration transactions.
- Optionally select the Delete Logged Elements during Posting check box.
Removing integration information that is not longer needed can save space and
avoid a possible low performance.
In the Chart of Accounts (tfgld0508m000) session, define the ledger accounts to be used for the
integration transactions. You must select the Integration Account check box. Integration accounts
cannot be used for any other type of transactions, for example, manual
transactions. Define integration user groups for Operations Management
areas For information purposes, you can group the Operations Management users who create integration transactions in user groups. - To support dimension mapping in the integration mapping scheme,
in the Dimensions (tfgld0510m000) session you can import the codes of various entities
and properties defined in the Tables module of Common to create the
dimensions.
