Integration of the Securities Order Function to Transaction Management

Scope of Functions

The securities order function has been completely revised for this release and brought into line with the transaction management functions in the money market, foreign exchange and derivatives areas. This significantly changes the way in which securities transactions are processed.

  • Activity concept
The previous status concept has been replaced. You now have the following activity categories:
  • Order

  • Order expiration

  • Contract

  • Settlement

A transaction can pass through the following activities according to which start activity you choose:
  • Order -> Order expiration

  • Order -> Contract

  • Order -> Contract -> Settlement

  • Contract -> Settlement

A transaction can only reach the settlement activity if you have defined the processing category '00002' (order - contract - settlement) in Customizing for the relevant transaction type. If, instead, you have chosen processing category '00001', (order - contract), the last activity in the chain is the contract.
The 'reverse contract' function resets the last step in the activity chain.
  • General ledger update
Flows are no longer posted in the general ledger online, that is, when you save the settlement.
As of this release, the posting status of the flows is simply set to 'Flagged for posting' when you save an activity that is relevant for posting (processing category 0001: Contract, processing category 0002: Settlement). A separate report program updates the flows in the general ledger in a second step. This divides the back office functions from the general ledger accounting functions, and standardizes the process chain for the money market, foreign exchange and derivatives modules.

Flows, which have the 'Flagged for posting' and 'Posted' posting statuses, are interpreted as actual flows in securities position management, and cannot therefore be changed. This means in particular that a transaction, whose flows show one of the flows mentioned above, cannot be processed using the transaction 'Change transaction'. You first have to reset the active activity and hence the flow status of the flows by reversing it.
  • Correspondence
You now process correspondence in the same way as you do in the money market, foreign exchange and derivatives areas.

Effects on Existing Data

To process transactions using the new transaction management functions, you must enter new Customizing settings and convert the flow data.

Effects on Data Transfer

The flow data is converted using a conversion program. This program also makes some of the necessary Customizing changes. The sequence of conversion activities is described in the program documentation.

You call up the conversion program using transaction TS_CONVERT.

Notes:

  • Since the program only converts the transactions which have 'order' or 'posted settlement' status, you must settle or, if required, delete all the transactions which still have 'planned' status before you upgrade your system to 4.6A.
  • Note that the conversion program assigns new transaction numbers, which do not match the previous order numbers.

For more information, see the documentation for the conversion program. Go to the SAP Library and choose AC Financials → Treasury → Treasury Management → Securities → Conversion Program: Securities Transaction (Rel. 4.6A).

Effects on Customizing

As a result of the integration with the transaction management functions, the following IMG activities are no longer included in the securities area for orders:

- Define Transaction Number Range

- Maintain Active Indicator (Release)

- Define Release Status Parameters (Release)

- Define Status

- Define Status Transfers

Go to the new settings for the transaction management functions by choosing Securities → Transaction and Position Management → Functions → Transaction Management.

You are required to enter these new IMG activities. These are divided into two groups. You make the settings for the first group manually; the settings for the second group are made by the conversion program.

IMG activities you enter manually

  • Define Order Number Range
  • Define Number Ranges for Underlying Transaction
  • Define Flow Types for Transaction
  • Define Derivation Procedures and Rules
  • Assign Transaction Flow Types to Securities Flow Types
  • Define Order Limit Checks

IMG activities entered using the conversion program

  • Define Transaction Types
  • Assign Flow Types to Transaction Type
  • Account Determination for Transaction Flow Types(go to this IMG activity by choosing Securities → Transaction and Position Management → Functions → Accounting → General Ledger Update → Define Account Determination forTransaction Flow Types)
  • Assign Planning Levels
  • Define Correspondence Activities

Further Information

Go to the documentation for the conversion program for securities transaction (Rel. 4.6A) in the SAP Library by choosing AC Financials → Treasury → Treasury Management → Securities → Conversion Program: Securities Transaction (Rel. 4.6A).
