Use
In the mass activities of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA), you cannot select data by student because FI-CA was not intended to administer students. You therefore have to restrict selection by specifying a business partner interval.
In Campus Management where the student is the main object, selection of students is a useful feature. You can use the selection methods which are integrated into many Campus Management applications to select students in the mass activities of FI-CA.
Activities
Before you can use these selection methods in the mass activities of FI-CA, you must make the following settings:
- Define the Selection Method Group you want to use in the correspondence mass activity. This selection method group is also used in the mass activities for which you make the following settings.
- Extend the structures containing the additional parameters of the mass activities for which you want to use the selection methods by appending structure PIQ_FKKMASS_SELECTION. You can add an append structure to the respective structures, use existing CI includes, or extend the structures without using special techniques. Always place appends at the end so as not to change the structure composition. You can find the structures which are used for the additional parameters of a mass activity in the IMG activity Prepare Mass Activities of the 'General Control' node and 'Structures and Parameters' tabstrip.
- Define function modules CMAC_SAMPLE_1796 and CMAC_SAMPLE_1799 for events 1796 and 1799 respectively. These function modules will then be processed for all mass activities. If you want to use student selection only for specific mass activities, copy the function modules and modify them so that only these mass activities are processed. Save the copies in the events.
- Define a layout which uses the selection methods. Use group frame S8950 (CM: general student selection). You can also create several layouts for various mass activities. Since you do not always want to select students and business partners, you can remove the group frame for business partner selection from the layout. If you do not, the activity will be performed for the selected business partners and for the selected students (technically also business partners), and not only for those persons who belong to both groups.
Due to technical restrictions, you must create a separate tab page for group box S8950, or you have to place the group box at the end of an existing tab page.
- Assign the required layout to the respective mass activities in the IMG activity Prepare Mass Activities.
Further notes
If a structure is extended in higher releases, it may no longer be possible to read the parameters of old runs. To avoid this problem, you may have to program a customer function module which converts these parameters and inserts them in the mass activity Customizing settings.
