8.1 Prerequisites

The following are the prerequisites for Fact Ledger Population Transformation:

  • All the post-installation steps mentioned in the OFS Advanced Analytical Applications Infrastructure Installation Guide and the OFS Profitability Management Pack Installation and Configuration Guide (only if OFS PFT is installed) must be completed.
  • The Application User must be mapped to a role that has a seeded batch execution function (BATPRO).
  • Ensure that your FISCAL year information is configured properly. It has the following two columns.
    • FISCAL_PERIOD: This gives the number of months in the given FISCAL period.
    • START_MONTH: This indicates which month of the calendar year is the FISCAL starting month. For example, a value '1' for this column means FISCAL year starts from January, and the value of '4' indicates that the FISCAL year starts from April.
  • Before executing a batch, check if the following services are running on the application server.
    • Iccserver
    • Router
    • AM Server
    • Messageserver
    • Olapdataserver

Note:

For more information on how to check if the services are up and on, and how to start the services if you find them not running, see the OFS Analytical Applications Infrastructure User Guide.

Batches must be created for executing the function. For more details, see Define a Batch.
