In this Customizing activity you can start the following processes:

• Extract Data

This step of the initial load is a prerequisite for productive use. It transfers the FI documents to the Central Finance system in intermediate database tables. This is a prerequisite for the next steps.

Features

This initial load step is mandatory. It prepares the upload of the FI documents from the source system to the Central Finance system.

You can display the status of this step in the activity Monitor Initial Load Execution for Initial Load Group.

Notes

Once the extraction process is complete, you must always start the extraction again in delta mode, because it is possible that not all documents will have been selected in the first run.

• Mapping Simulation

This can be used to identify missing mappings before you start the actual initial load. Nothing is posted in this step, but you can still see error messages in the initial load monitor, as you would during the actual initial load.

• Initial load simulation

This can be used to check if all necessary settings have been maintained to enable an initial load. Nothing is posted in this step, but you can see error messages in the initial load monitor, as you would during the actual initial load.

• An initial load which posts documents in the Central Finance system

SAP recommends you carry out a simulation of both mapping and the initial load before you trigger the initial load.

Each of these processes is triggered for one initial load group at a time.

You have carried out the following Customizing activities for Central Finance:

• All activities under Central Finance -> Central Finance: Target System Settings -> Set Up Systems

• All activities under Central Finance -> Central Finance: Target System Settings -> Mapping

• Under Central Finance -> Central Finance: Target System Settings -> Initial Load Settings, the activities:

• Choose Logical System

• Define Clearing and Subsitution Accounts

• Make Configuration Settings in Source System

If necessary, you can also make additional enhancements using the BAdIs under Central Finance -> Central Finance: Target System Settings or Central Finance: Source System Settings -> BAdIs: Central Finance.

To enable an initial load for one or more company codes you must first define an initial load group.

You use initial load groups to group company codes belonging to one or more logical systems. For more information, see the activity Define Initial Load Groups.

1. Under Mass Data Run, choose whether you want to extract data, start a mapping simulation, a posting simulation or an initial load which creates real postings in the Central Finance system.
2. Optionally, you can define the number of batch jobs which are allowed for the Initial Load processing under Batch Job Control.
3. As a third mandatory step you choose an initial load group from the initial load groups you have already defined. You do this under Initial Load Group Selection.

Depending on the number of documents which have to be transferred and reposted in the Central Finance system, processing of the initial load can take a long time.

Because everything is processed in background jobs the progress of the initial load can only be seen in the Initial Load Monitor.
