Defining Line Details for Additional Ledger Fields

You can set up additional ledger fields and reference these to transfer data codes, so as to add the flexibility to transfer further Order Fulfilment references and dates to the ledger.

You can define which Order Fulfilment column is to be transferred to which additional field column on the ledger when setting up ledger interfaces, and then transfer selected field values from Order Fulfilment source transactions into additional ledger fields on the Financials transactions when posting ledger transactions.

  1. Create the required additional ledger fields using Additional Fields Setup (AFS).
  2. Add the additional fields to the Ledger Interface Setup form using Form Designer (FRD).
  3. The additional fields are now displayed on the Ledger Interface Setup form, on the Transfer Data Codes tab. Specify the required information in these additional fields.

When ledger postings are created using purchase order entry, sales order entry and so on, or transactions are imported using Business Line Import, the system automatically generates ledger details as defined in the Ledger Interface Setup, including the additional fields. The transaction lines are then automatically consolidated and posted to the ledger.
