FI-CA Customizing [1 September 16]

This document is based on the old Wiki article, and shall be considered a
living document for all purposes. Update it whenever necessary.

Some steps are meant to be done on the Transactional System, while

others are on the FI-CA system itself. The latter ones will be indicated by
an “On FI-CA” text on the beginning of the step description.

1. The following FI-CAx setup document is used to setup

Development Clients ONLY.

2. FI-CA Setup for Test & Performance Systems should be done using
a ToC (Transport of Copies).

3. ToC is to be done via the FI-CA cross client 005 and needs
Authorizations.

4. Use the DLM incident as a reference to get User & Authorizations

in the cross client.

5. The Test & Performance Systems need to be checked for the

Customizing to verify the ToC was successful.
 1. Create the RFC connection from the Transactional Banking
system to FI-CAx system using transaction SM59.

e.g.:

FICA system: Q7k (078)

TrBk system: FLT (205)

1. Create new RFC Connection (SM59) – In TrBk – FLT (205)

Field / Section Name Data to Enter / Value to Select Activity / Check / Comment

Configuration of RFC Connection

Click on “create”.

e.g. RFC_Q7K_078
Connection Type 3 –ABAP Connection

Description 1 RFC Connection to FI-CAx, Dev (Q7K 078)

RFC Destination: Technical Settings

Goto the SAP logon
Right click on FICA system

2. Now on SPRO, navigate to Financial Services -> Account
Management -> Communication Between Logical Systems ->
Master Data Distribution -> Define Logical System.

3. Now, navigate to Financial Services → Account Management →

Communication Between Logical Systems → Master Data
Distribution → Define System and Method for Communication
Technique.
4. Then navigate to Financial Services → Account Management →
Communication Between Logical Systems → Account → Define
Account-Managing System.

5. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication

Between Logical Systems → Account → Assign Method and
Technology to System.
6. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication
Between Logical Systems → Account → Business Add-Ins (BAdIs)
 General BAdIs → BAdI: System Determination for Accounts
If the account proxy does not find an account contract in its own system with the BAdI
Decoupling of System AM (BCA_PXMC_GET_AC_TB, whose use is limited to SAP), it calls the
BAdI System Determination for Accounts to determine the account-managing system.
6. Financial Services → Account Management →
Communication Between Logical Systems → Open Item
Management → Define Open Item Management System

RFC_Q3I

7. Financial Services → Account Management →

Communication Between Logical Systems → Open Item
Management → Assign System and Method to Technology
8. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication
Between Logical Systems → Bill Creation → Define Bill Creation
System

9. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication

Between Logical Systems → Bill Creation → Assign System and
Method to Technology
10. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication
Between Logical Systems → Payment Distribution → Define
Payment Distribution System
set to NONE

11. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication

Between Logical Systems → Payment Order → Define Payment
Order System
set to NONE
12. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication
Between Logical Systems → Payment Order → BAdI: Define
Technology and System
13. Financial Services → Account Management → Communication
Between Logical Systems → Payment Order → BAdI: Connection to
Payment Order System
Important: Use class CL_BCA_PO_PROXY_SET_SERVICE as template for the code above.
14. Financial Services → Account Management → Product
Management → Payment Distribution → Define Payment
Distribution Processing Mode

The New Entry button might be missing, use the table /FSPD/TCPD to make your first entry.

14 a. Financial Services → Account Management → Product

Management → Payment Distribution → Define Number Range
Interval for payment Lots.
(Transports are done manually so check after client copy)

 Change Intervals
 Use the client number for the number range beginning.
 Eg. 0000000001 -> 2000000001 and 0009999999 -> 2009999999
Now on your FI-CA system, execute the following steps.

15. Create the RFC connection from FI-CAx system to Banking

Services system using transaction SM59
16. Transaction SE18 –

Implement BAdI BADI_SYSTEM_FINDER_LOANS

17. Implement BAdI BADI_CONTRACTPARTRNER_DETAIL
Perform this step on cross client FICA system like Q3I 005/Q7K/077

Transaction : SALE -> Basic Settings -> Logical Systems -> Define Logical System.
18. Financial Accounting (New) → Contract Accounts Receivable
and Payable → Data Transfer → Define Identification for External

61. Lastly, verify users permissions to the users assigned to the
RFCs created in both systems in order to avoid integration
problems, this must be done on transaction SM59.

system already connected to FI-CAx.
62.1. On SPRO, add the identification for your system at Financial
Accounting (New) → Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable → Data
Transfer → Define Identification for External System
62.2. Create a new RFC connection from FI-CAx system to Banking
Services system using transaction SM59.

62.3. Change BAdI BADI_SYSTEM_FINDER_LOANS implementation to

add the new RFC.

62.4. Execute the Outbound Interface pointing the system targeted by

your RFC (transaction FPOITR).
