2.11 Configuring the general options
You can customize SAP BusinessObjects Financial Consolidation in the following tabs in Tools >
General Options:
• Specific Data Processing
This tab enables you to complement the applications standard processing with specific SQL data processing for generating package opening balances, integrating packages, transferring
preconsolidated data and transferring consolidated data.
• ComplianceLink
This tab appears only if SAP BusinessObjects ComplianceLink has been installed. It is used to enter the parameters required for linking Financial Consolidation schedules to ComplianceLink documents.
• Package Amount Trace
In this tab, you activate the Package Amount Trace function for categories.
• Transfer
This tab is used to define the packet storage folder and the mail system used to send and receive objects. It is also used to view the information defined in the Site Profiles view, such as owner site, type of site, transfer media and profile range.
Note:
To be able to send data entry schedules and reports by email from SAP BusinessObjects Financial Consolidation Web, you must configure the SMTP server parameters in the Transfer tab. You must enter an IP address or the name of the machine used to exchange emails in the Transfer vectors section.
• Working languages
This tab is used to define the languages to be used in the application. The descriptions for each language are displayed in each of the defined languages. For example, the description for French will be French in English, Français in French, and Französisch in German.
You can also select a substitution language from the dropdown list which will be used for all of the descriptions which have not been translated in the selected working language.
• Scopes
This tab is used to define the default values used when creating a scope and set investment calculation options.
• Portfolios
This tab is used to define the default values used when creating a portfolio and set investment calculation options.
• Trace Reports
You activate and configure the trace report function in the Trace Reports tab. By default this option is disabled. You can also use this tab to specify in which views the actions performed by the user are traced.
• Reporting
Use this tab to define the reporting options, like following:
• the files in which the Data Link task results and production reports will be stored.
• the multi-user mode properties. This mode enables several users to work on a package at the same time.
Package data security options:
• Activate an alert when a package is opened and a new data entry restriction or update to the category scenario results in a deletion of package data
This option enables a warning message to be displayed when opening a package containing invalid data. There is a link to a log file listing the package data marked for deletion.
• Import is not authorized if package contains data that is no longer valid and will be deleted when the package is saved
When a user imports package data, the package is automatically saved at the end of the import process. This option prevents the user from performing the import, in the case where the package contains invalid data.
• Publication is not authorized if package contains data that is no longer valid and will be deleted when the package is saved
When a user publishes a package by selecting Publish after validating packages in the "Package Manager", the package is automatically saved during the publication process. This option prevents the user from performing a publication after validation, in the case where the package contains invalid data.
Note:
If multiple users have access to a package, it is recommended that you create a specific Data Access Group detailing for which data a user has only data entry access, and a larger Data Access Group
detailing for which data the user has data analysis access. (If possible, it is recommended that you apply to the data analysis access group the same restrictions as defined in the Data Entry Restriction of the RU Organizer). In this way, if the message appears warning the user that invalid package data may be deleted, the log file that the user downloads will list all invalid package data, not just the data to which the user has data entry access.

2.11.1 Specific data processing (Hooks)
In SAP BusinessObjects Financial Consolidation, you can customize specific data processing operations in the Desktop, in the Specific data processing tab of the General Options:
• generating opening balances for packages
• integrating packages
• transferring preconsolidated or consolidated data
These specific data processing operations are always performed in addition to and after the standard processes.
You can replace standard data processing with specific data processing. To do this, in the SQL query for the specific data processing operation, you specify the deletion of the standard data processing operation, and customize the specific data processing.
Caution:
The end of the query is indicated by a semi-colon ";". If you use an Oracle query, the end of the line is indicated by "\;".
Example: An Oracle query
begin
if [srcPhase] = 39 then
update [destTbl] set data_comment = 'test' \;
end if \;
end \;
;
