In this IMG activity you can transfer the client-dependent customizing settings for an analysis structure from the sample customizing, in so far as this has been provided for by SAP. You can then use the appropriate maintenance transactions to process these settings.
The following settings may be transferred:
Segment-level characteristics
Portfolio hierarchies (because the segment-level characteristics are a prerequisite, they are automatically transferred as well).
Settings for finance object integration (derivation) per transaction category (money market, forex.....). If one or more transaction categories are selected here, the general derivation strategy, which applies for all transactions, is transferred as well. Finance object integration is set to "partially active" for the respective transaction category, that is, finance object creation is integrated, but you can also save transactions without finance objects (when there are errors).
For the sample customizing settings to be transferred in a sensible way, at least some of the characteristics in the target analysis structure have to match up with the characteristics in the template. Characteristics that do not appear in the target analysis structure (because they were deleted in transaction AFW_ACT1, for example) are deleted from all settings with this transaction. In the case of derivation strategies, this can result in semantic errors. No customizing settings are created for characteristics that do not appear in the template. These have to be maintained manually.
The settings are written to transport requests (if this has been provided for in the system settings). Two transport requests may be necessary (derivation strategy to Workbench request, other settings to Customizing request).
