In this activity you define a DataSource for a ledger and assign this DataSource to the ledger.
Note
Please note that ledgers are client-dependent and DataSources client-independent objects. A DataSource can only be assigned to one ledger within a client. If you want to assign a DataSource across several clients the ledgers assigned must all be entered for the same totals table.
Requirements
To define a DataSource for a ledger and assign it you must have generated a transfer structure for the totals table of this ledger. Carry out this setting in Customizing for R/3 extractors under Business Information Warehouse -> Customer-Defined DataSources -> Financial Accounting - Special Ledger (FI-SL) -> Generate Transfer Structure for Totals Table.
Activities
- Check that your ledger has already been assigned a DataSource.
In the list, all ledgers are displayed that have a transfer structure for their totals tables.
The column Status displays whether the ledger has already been assigned a DataSource. If an assignment already exists (traffic light green) you can only change the description texts.
- Choose a ledger that you want to assign the DataSource to.
- Enter the name of the DataSource you want to assign to the ledger.
The name must begin with the number 3 and may only contain letters, numbers and _. The system suggests a name that begins with the prefix 3FI_SL_ and contains the name of the ledger.
Once you have saved the assignment you can no longer change the name.
- Enter a description for the assignment. You can use Copy ledger texts for this.
- Confirm your entries.
- Assign each of the fields in the transfer structure an InfoObject.
You can not exclude transfer structure fields from the DataSource.
- Save your assignment.
