In this step you can define validations for remote data entry using MS Access. Data entered locally using a PC data entry program must be checked for consistency before being exported.

Validations can be defined centrally in the R/3 System or locally in the PC data entry program by the system administrator.

When creating the validation steps, please note the following:

  • A validation step consists of a precondition and a check. No precondition is required for PC data entry validations.
  • Define the check using the mathematical formulas supported by the validation. The structure of the check must must correspond with the following outline syntax:
    MATHS( <FILCT> SUM(*Value/Quantity field*) WHERE *Val.rule* *Operator* SUM(*Value/Quantity field*) WHERE *Val.rule*

    The following applies to entry variables marked "*":

    • *Value/Quantity field*: Local/transaction/group currency or quantities.
      17 period fields are available for each currency type or quantity. However, you only need to enter one of these fields. When downloading the validation rules, the system uses the period field to identify the currency type/quantity.
      This arrangement currently means that a comparison of periods cannot be supported for validation.
    • *Operator*: Comparison operator (< , > , >= , <= , =)
    • *Val.rule*: Validation rule containing all selection criteria. You can use the fields of the structure FILCT in a validation rule.

Standard settings

A breakdown check is preset in the PC data entry program in the standard SAP system. This cannot be subsequently changed.

Activities

Define the validations which you require in addition to those supplied as standard. You do this as follows:

  • Enter an ID with a maximum of 7 characters.
  • Select LC as the business application component 0010 as the callup point.
  • Specify the validation steps.

Notes on transports

You can manually transport validations into the productive system using the function Validation -> Transport.

In addition, you can use a Customizing function specially designed for transporting validations. You do this in the Special Purpose Ledger Implementation Guide, under Tools -> Transport -> Transport validations.

Further notes

  • the Online-Help on how to create a validation step check
  • the manual "FI-SL Validations and Substitutions" (R/3 library).
