Displaying the Source of Master File Values 

To view the source of master file values:

In Customizing for Special Purpose Ledger, choose Basic Settings ® Master Data ® Maintain Integrated Master Data.

The Change View "Fields for Master Data Validation" Overview screen appears.

The Validation field determines where the system searches for master file values. If the value in the field is preceded by an = sign, the system uses a user exit to access the FI-SL master file values for a dimension.

If you created a user-defined user exit for your master data, this user exit must be included in program SAPLGUMD. For more information about program SAPLGUMD, see the online documentation for this program.

You can also execute user-defined user exits using the CMOD function. This allows you to create and activate user exits without having to modify the above master file management program.

If the value is not proceeded by an = sign, the system refers to an FI-SL table to access master file values for a dimension. (This table number appears in the Validation field).
