Document Chain Feature in Transaction Register (New)

Use

As of SAP ECC 6.0, Enterprise Extension Public Sector Management (EA-PS 602), Enhancement Package 2 , the transaction register includes a document chain feature.

The concept of the document chain is to select a document in the transaction register and to display all the predecessor documents and successor documents related to the selected document. Due to the wide range of business processes and possible types of documents, the document chain display provides a best-effort to construct and display the documents in a processing chain using various information sources.

The document chain has a default overview display that lists the documents/items involved in the processing chain, as well as ledger views that display the ledger entries from General Ledger, Special Ledgers or Funds Management related to each document/item in the chain.

The following functions are available during document chain display:

  • Display document
  • Own document chain (construct/display the document chain of one of the predecessor/successor items in the current document chain)
  • Overview/ledger views: switch between views
  • Show accounting documents

The document chain is designed to provide a basic level of support for any documents that post to General Ledger (G/L) Accounting or Funds Management (FM). It has extended support for certain document types to enable more document type specific data to be displayed for the document (such as status values dependent on the document type) as well as finding predecessor and successor documents using methods other than those available for all documents through the G/L Accounting and FM.

  • For documents that post to FM open items or FM actuals, successor and predecessor documents can be identified through predecessor references in the FM data tables.
  • For documents that post to accounting, successor and predecessor documents can be identified through:
  • Clearing: the cleared and clearing documents have a predecessor/successor relationship

  • Reversal: the reversed and reversal documents have a predecessor/successor relationship

  • Invoice reference: certain types of invoice reference (BSEG-REBZG) are used to determine relationships

  • Document types for which extended support is available include:
  • FM: Earmarked funds documents

  • Purchasing: Purchase orders, purchase requisitions, outline agreements

  • Inventory Management: Goods movements

  • Logistics Invoice Verification: Invoices

  • Sales and Distribution: Orders and billing documents

Effects on Customizing

The document chain report supports customer enhancements to fill gaps in the construction of the chain. Through enhancement implementations, the customer can provide additional methods of finding successor and/or predecessor documents; modify the information displayed for a document; and provide additional ledger views if required.

Enhancements can be implemented through the following enhancement spots:

  • FM_DC_DOCITEM (Enhancements to basic doc info)
  • FM_DC_SOURCE (Methods for finding successor / predecessor documents)
  • FM_DC_LEDGER (Ledger data providers for document chain)
