Setting up Line Details for External/Business Line Import Type

After you have completed the general details for the ledger interface line details, the remaining information required is dependent on the Ledger Interface Value Type. A different set of information is required for each type, and this information is used in different ways. This topic covers the External/Business Line Import type of ledger interface.

Note: The Business Line Import options are used with the SunSystems Connect (SSC) BusinessLineImport component. This allows you to import business transactions, for example, sales orders and purchase orders, from external applications and from that information, generate the required ledger postings.

Click the Business Line Import tab only, then the front row of tabs containing Value, Analysis Suppression, and Transfer Data Codes. If you click the Transaction Value or Inventory Cost tabs in error, the correct information is not displayed. Click the Business Line Import tab again to display the correct information.
On the journal lines generated, the value to be transferred can be split into four parts: base, transaction, and reporting values, and a memo value. Financials fourth and fifth currencies are not supported for ledger interfaces between Order Fulfilment and Financials.
For each of the four parts, enter where the value to be transferred to the journal is obtained from. Each value label identifies a value on the external transaction being processed that is to be transferred to the appropriate journal value. This can be one of the twenty fields in the SSC import payload, or one of the four purchase or sales prices on the Item Master.
For each of the ten analysis dimension codes on the journal, you can specify where the analysis code is to come from.

Suppress OR Replace with

Select Suppress if no analysis code is to be entered in the relevant journal analysis dimension. Select Replace to enter the value as an analysis code.

You can also specify whether or not to use a specific import analysis code. The system then uses the relevant field in the SSC import payload.

If Suppress or Replace are not entered, and you specify that an import analysis code should not be used, the system checks the Analysis Mapping to Ledger (ANM) settings which define where the analysis code comes from. The system uses the options of external purchasing, external sales, or external inventory, depending on the module of this ledger interface (as specified in the main Ledger Interface form).
