Documentation
Definition
Use
In a distributed system landscape consisting of multiple logistics systems and one central financials system, the central financials system contains sales and distribution document numbers from different external logistics systems. Since the logistics systems issue document numbers independently of one another, the sales and distribution document numbers are not always unique. For the accounting-relevant data that comes from the external logistics system and is needed for follow-on processes in the central financials system, the central financials system creates an accounting view of that sales document (for example, an accounting view of sales order). This accounting view contains a new, unique number as well as the original document number and the original system.
Dependencies
Example
In logistics system A, a sales order is created with sales order number 4711. By coincidence, a sales order with the same sales order number is created in logistics system B.
The central financials system creates a separate accounting view of each of the sales orders. These accounting views receive the following sales order numbers:
System Original Sales Order Number Sales Order Number
A 4711 _000ABCDEF
B 4711 _000ABCDEG
