Transferring Data from Financial Accounting (FI) 

Use

Use transfer program RGUREC10 to transfer data from FI to FI-SL.

Procedure

  1. Choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® Special Purpose Ledger ® Periodic Processing ® Data Transfer ® Financial Accounting.

    2. The Data Transfer from Financial Accounting screen appears.

  2. Enter the following:

    3. – the company code for which you want the data to be transferred

    – the fiscal year for which you want the data to be transferred

    – the period for which you want the data to be transferred

    If you leave this field blank, data will be transferred for all periods.

    – Information about the business transaction (such as the activity and/or origin of the document)

    – the valid range of document numbers for the data you want to be transferred

    – the document date of the data that you want to transfer

    – the posting date of the data that you want to transfer

    – the creation date of the data that you want to transfer

  3. Set the required flags:

    4. – If you only want to test the data transfer, set the test run flag. If you select this field, the FI-SL tables will not be updated.

    – If you want to display a statistical list of the data transfer, set the List Required flag.

    – If you want to check whether data records already exist in FI-SL for the documents that you want to transfer, set the check flag. If data already exists, this will not be transferred to FI-SL.

    A prerequisite for using the check function is that the data which you want to transfer must be saved in FI-SL.

    – If you want to transfer FI documents that originate from Materials Management (MM) or Sales and Distribution (SD), set the Also Transfer MM and SD Documents flag. In certain circumstances (for example if data is summarized in FI) it is not possible to save information from the source documents. In this case, only data from the FI document is available.

  4. Enter the name of the target ledger to which you want to transfer the data.

    5. For the ledgers which you want to be updated, the company code flag on the Change Ledger: Activity Assignment screen, posting assignment field, must be set on either 2 (ledger posted when data is posted subsequently) or 3 (ledger posted directly and also when data is posted subsequently). You set the posting flag in Customizing. You should also set the line item flag for ledger to which you want data to be transferred. For further information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Special Purpose Ledger.

    If other users are posting data, you should be cautious when using this program in online mode. In this case, you should only transfer old data. We recommend that you only start these programs if no other users are posting data.

  5. Choose Program ® Execute.

Result

The system transfers the data from Financial Accounting to FI-SL.
