User Steps

After the administrator sets up the maintenance view and subscriptions to align the product dimensions of the Corporate GL, Corporate Planning, and Financial Close applications, the scenario walks through a user flow to demonstrate the synchronization of enterprise data across applications.

The user flow follows this sequence:

1. Betty Anderson (Corporate GL data associate) enters a request to add a product to the corporate GL.
2. Alex Smith (data manager for both Corporate GL and Financial Close) approves the request.

   The system generates subscription requests to add the same product to the Corporate Planning and Financial Close applications. Because the subscription requests are set to auto-submit, the request for Financial Close is submitted. However, the request for Corporate Planning fails validation and must be reviewed before it can be submitted.

3. Martin Anderson (data manager for Corporate Planning) reviews the subscription request for Planning, fixes the validation error, and submits it.
4. Kerry Lane (Enterprise data manager) approves both the Corporate Planning and Financial Close requests.
