Function documentationContract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) in One Exposure

 

You can integrate forecasted cash from contract accounts receivable and payable into One Exposure from Operations. In this integration scenario, the source application Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable and One Exposure run in the same system (one-system scenario).

Forecasted cash contains the following information from FI-CA:

  • Account Assignments:

    • Business Area

    • Company

Note Note

Compared to other source applications, One Exposure does not contain any reference to the documents in FI-CA. The upload to One Exposure is done on a summary level (for each company code, transaction currency, transaction date, planning level, planning group, or G/L account)

End of the note.

Certainty Level

One Exposure derives cash forecasts for items representing contract accounts receivable and payable. It stores this information with the certainty level FICA.

Flow Type

The system uses the following flow types for forecast in One Exposure:

Default Flow Types

900106 - Incoming Bank Cash (FI-CA)

900107 - Outgoing Bank Cash (FI-CA)

Planning Group

The system uses the planning group that is defined in the section general data of the contract account.

If errors occur during data upload, the system collects these errors in an application log. You can access it with transaction code FQM_APPLICATION_LOG .

Activities

Customizing Activities

  • Activate Individual Source Applications and Activate Multiple Source Applications

    You can activate the source application FICA - Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in this Customizing activity. Data coming from FICA is only updated in One Exposure if the application is activated and initialized successfully.

    Note Note

    The source application FICA - Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable is only available for activation if the software component FI-CA is installed.

    End of the note.

  • Define Queries for Liquidity Item Derivation

    It offers the possibility to enter derivation rules for data coming from Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable. The liquidity item derivation is based on a subset of information available in One Exposure (origin X).

    If no liquidity item can be determined, the system updates the flow with an empty liquidity item.

    Note Note

    As mentioned above, please keep in mind that the data coming from FICA is uploaded to One Exposure on a summary level.

    End of the note.

  • Define Alternative Planning Levels for Locks and Define Alternative Planning Levels for Transactions

    Planning Levels are determined either on the basis of the planning group (Start of the navigation path Financial Supply Chain Management Next navigation step Cash and Liquidity Management Next navigation step Cash Management Next navigation step Planning Levels and Planning Groups Next navigation step Define Planning Groups End of the navigation path) or on the basis of the company-code-dependent data of the G/L account (SKB1-FDLEV). With these two IMG activities, however, you can determine a planning level on a more detailed basis (both are available in Start of the navigation path Financial Accounting (New) Next navigation step Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable Next navigation step Integration Next navigation step Cash Management End of the navigation path).

    Customers upgrading from the classic cash management can use the existing settings for the planning level when integrating FI-CA into One Exposure.

  • Load Transaction Data from Source Applications into One Exposure from Operations Hub

    If you want to integrate transaction data that had already been created before the source application Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable was activated, you use this Customizing activity.

  • Delete Data from One Exposure from Operations Hub

    If you want to use a new starting point within an implementation project, you can use this Customizing activity to delete all existing data or the source application FI-CA from One Exposure. You do this for each company code and source application.
