RFFMFMMD_SETGEN - Generate Substring Groups
BAL_S_LOG - Application Log: Log header data Vendor Master (General Section)This documentation is copyright by SAP AG.
Purpose
This report is used to generate sets of substrings of one or more account assignment elements defined in your FM master data.
Note
The terms "set" and "group" are used interchangeably.
These substrings have to be created in Customizing using the structure into which you want to break down the substrings. Each part of the substring should have a meaning of its own. See the example below for further information.
After the set generation, you can use the Report Writer to report on these sets. For further information see the Report Writer / Report Painter transaction GRR2, report group 4FM.
Integration
The substring group display transactions involved in set creation are:
Transaction | Used in |
---|---|
FM_CISUB_SET3 | Sets for commitment items |
FM_FDSUB_SET3 | Sets for funds |
FM_FCSUB_SET3 | Sets for funds centers |
FM_FNSUB_SET3 | Sets for functional areas |
Prerequisites
In the IMG activity Create and Define Subdivision ID, you must create the necessary subdivision IDs for the account assignment elements you are using, and then subdivide each account assignment element into individual substrings.
You can then further break down each of these substrings into so-called partial lengths by going to the Detail screen. This is a prerequisite for generating the sets.
Depending on the account assignment element you want to create substrings for, you must also maintain the corresponding alphanumeric substring values/texts in the following transactions for editing substrings:
FRCISUB1 to 5,,Substring values for commitment items
FRFCSUB1 to 3,,Substring values for funds centers
FRFDSUB1 to 2,,Substring values for funds
FRFNSUB1 to 3,,Substring values for functional areas
Features
Selection
- Call transaction FMMD_SETGEN and select the account assignment elements and substrings for which you have created subdivision IDs and substrings in Customizing.
- Click on Executeor press F8 to run the set generation.
Standard Variants
Output
The output screen contains the set names and descriptive texts generated by the report.
Activities
Example
In this example, a public sector organization wants to create a substring structure according to departments and functions. For the upper levels, the following applies:
- The departments have the partial length1 with 2 characters.
- The functions have the partial length 2 with 4 characters.
This means that the report will break down the substring data first into the first 2 characters, and then into the first 4 characters. So in this example the first two characters stand for the department:
- 12 = Security department
- 13 = Education department
- 14 = Health department
The first fourcharacters stand for the function within the department:
- 1232 = Administration
- 1234 = Police
- 1348 = Public schools
- 1349 = Universities
- 1404 = Public hospitals
- 1455 = Vaccination offices
After running the set generation, the following sets are generated:
Substring set | Department | |
---|---|---|
S12 | Security department | |
Interval: 1200 - 12ZZ (includes all departments starting with "12") | ||
S13 | Education department | |
Interval: 1300 - 13ZZ (includes all departments starting with "13") | ||
S14 | Health department | |
Interval: 1400 - 14ZZ (includes all departments starting with "14"). | ||
Furthermore, a set is generated at the top level, which contains the lower-level sets. |
