Prerequisite to Printing the XML File

Before you print the XML file for any of the five accounting cases, set up data for the post office location of the reporting company. This data is common to all the five accounting cases.

To set up data for the post office location, access the Alternate Address form of the Address Book Revisions program (P01012) and enter:

  • The company address type in the Address Type field

  • The post office address of the reporting company in the Address Line 1 field

All the five batch programs that you use to run the XML file sections have a Company Address Type processing option. The system fetches the address (that you specify in the Address Line 1 field of the P01012 program) for this Company Address Type (that you specify in the processing option) from the Alternate Address table (F01161) and uses this retrieved address as the post office location of the reporting company.
