In addition to setting up special purpose ledgers and companies, you must also define field movement information. Field movements determine which dimensions are used within the FI-SL System. You use these dimensions to define your special purpose ledger(s). You cannot define field movements for standard ledgers that are defined in other applications.

Naming convention: You must use a letter as the first character of a user-defined field movement name (for example, R000, M001). If your system currently contains field movements defined with a number as the first character, contact your SAP consultant for assistance.

For more information about defining field movements, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Special Purpose Ledger.

You can also determine if CO information from FI/MM/SD is to be posted as actual or statistical data. You define this information per field within a field movement. For each field in the field movement, you can enter a standard exit, which determines whether you want to take over actual data only or also statistical data.

For more information, see the "Standard Exits for Field Movements in Special Purpose Ledger" Release Note.

Within field movements, you can also enter user exits. In previous releases, user exits for field movements were stored in the following programs:

• RGIFU000, for user exits in fixed field movements (such as, Currency)

• RGIVUxxx (xxx = client), for user exits in user-defined field movements (such as Account and Cost Center)

Beginning with Release 3.0, you can define your own user exit programs. If you create a user exit program, this program name must be defined in the table for client-dependent user exits (table T80D) in Customizing. (For more information, see the Maintain Client-Dependent User Exits step in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Special Purpose Ledger.) If you do not change table T80D, the exit programs RGIFU000 and RGIVUxxx are used.
