| # Mapping scheme prerequisites Before you can set up an integration mapping scheme, you must perform these tasks: Set up table sharing In a multifinancial company structure, it is recommended that the financial companies share the mapping scheme tables and the reconciliation tables (tables tfgld430 - tfgld495). The financial companies then all map the integration transactions to the same ledger accounts and dimensions. You can define exceptions to the shared mapping for individual integration document types. Note When you start the Mapping Scheme (tfgld4573m000) session, LN checks whether the required tables are correctly shared. If this is not the case, an error message is displayed listing the tables that are not correctly shared and you cannot start the session. Initialize mapping scheme data In the Initialize Mapping Scheme Data (tcfin0210m000) session, select the transaction origins and the mapping elements that must be mapped, and then click Initialize. LN generates the integration document types and retrieves the business objects and mapping elements required for the packages and modules that are selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session. Authorize users to post integration transactions Users can only post integration transactions if they belong to an integration user group. In the Integration User Groups (tfgld4135m000) session, you can define user groups. Set up integration parameters In the Integration Parameters (tfgld4150s000) session, perform these tasks: Initialize the descriptions of the business objects, integration document types, and business object attributes, in the installed languages. On the appropriate menu, click Initialize Descriptions. Enter a default transaction type and series for the integration transactions. Newly entered integration document types are only inserted automatically on the Document Numbering and Compression tab of the Mapping Scheme (tfgld4573m000) session if a default transaction type and series are available. Select the way in which you want to handle the document numbers and the batch numbers for the integration transactions. Optionally select the Delete Logged Elements during Posting check box. Removing integration information that is not longer needed can save space and avoid a possible low performance. Define the integration accounts In the Chart of Accounts (tfgld0508m000) session, define the ledger accounts to be used for the integration transactions. You must select the Integration Account check box. Integration accounts cannot be used for any other type of transactions, for example, manual transactions. Define integration user groups for Operations Management areas For information purposes, you can group the Operations Management users who create integration transactions in user groups. To support dimension mapping in the integration mapping scheme, in the Dimensions (tfgld0510m000) session you can import the codes of various entities and properties defined in the Tables module of Common to create the dimensions.
