10.4 Ledger Configuration

Ledger configuration was added in the release 22C. Before you execute a SLA, ensure that both Product Information and Ledger Configuration are complete (show 100%).

You must perform ledger configuration each time a change to ledger assignment is done.

To perform ledger configuration, click the bar next to Ledger Configuration to launch the configuration UI. The headers are pre-populated based on the selections you have made while performing Ledger Assignment. Data is pulled from either the dimension table or from the seeded LOV (List of Values) table. Depending on whether the dimension table or LOV tables have data, the UI presents drop-down lists or text boxes for you to select or enter values for the attributes, respectively.

The configuration specifies precedence using the if, else if, else logic. This means, you specify the first combination with values for the attributes. If this condition is not satisfied, the next combination is executed, and so on, until the final option is reached which is assignment to the default ledger (user- specified). You can select a maximum of 30 attributes per combination and an unlimited number of combinations.

Depending on your access privilege, you will see the Save and Apply buttons. Users belonging to AFCSBUGRP can only save the changes. Users belonging to the AFCSAPVRGRP can apply the changes. Before saving the changes, AFCS performs validations such as ensuring duplicate combinations are not present, all mandatory fields have values, and values chosen are validated and should not exceed limits set by Data Catalog.

Note that when one user is applying changes, another user cannot modify the same until the changes being applied are complete. After configuring the ledger, the SLA can be executed and based on the ledger configuration specified, records will be assigned with ledger name.

The ledger configuration can be defined only for the following conditions:

• The SLA should be in Configured or Available status.
• There should be more than one ledger selected during ledger assignment in the SLA.
• Only distinct attributes used in ledger assignment will be available in the ledger configuration UI.

After configuring the ledger, the SLA can be executed and based on the ledger configuration specified, records will be assigned with ledger name.
