Is Your ERP System Hurting Your Business?

The Importance of an Integrated System

Kathy Barthelt 0 14114 Article rating: 5.0

It could be if your ERP system isn't integrated with other systems that contain mission-critical business data.

Having data in two (or more) systems that don’t talk to one another is like baking a pizza crust in one oven and the toppings in another.

Infor LN & Baan Tip: Financial Integration Mapping Scheme

Transactions to be mapped - In the mapping scheme, you must define the ledger mapping and the dimension mapping for these types of transactions:

  1. Financial integration transactions resulting from logistic events in Operations Management.
  2. General Ledger transactions.
  3. Procurement card transactions in Accounts Payable.


In addition, to support dimension accounting you must define the dimension mapping of financial transactions from Accounts Payable and from Invoicing to the various dimensions.

The setup procedure - creating, changing, or extending an integration mapping scheme, consists of these steps:

  1. Map scheme prerequisites.
  2. If no mapping scheme exists, create a mapping scheme.
  3. Create a mapping scheme version.
  4. Map by Reconciliation Group (tfgld4166m000)
  5. Set up the integration transaction document numbers for the integration transactions.
  6. Set up compression of the transactions.
  7. Check and activate a mapping scheme for your mapping scheme version.
