Use

As of SAP ECC Enterprise Extension Financial Services 6.0 (EA-FS 600) you can identify businesspartners in external systems in total commitment in the following ways:

- Identification number from Additional Partner NumbersA business partner in an external system is identified using the Additional Partner Number for thebusiness partner in the local system. The business partner number from the external system is storedas an identification number in the local business partner. When you call total commitment thesystem converts the business partner number into this identification number so that it can find thebusiness partner in the other system.

- Business partner number (same numbers)The numbers for the business partner in the local system and in the external system have to be thesame. A business partner in an external system is identified using the business partner number.

- Cross-system GUID for the business partnerA business partner in an external system is identified using a cross-system business partner GUID.

10.3.10.4 FIN-FSCM-TRM-TM Transaction Manager

10.3.10.4.1

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005 there are new BAPIs in the foreign exchange area.

The following methods already exist for the business object ForeignExchange:

Method Function module

Change BAPI_FTR_FXT_CHANGE

Create BAPI_FTR_FXT_CREATE

GetDetail BAPI_FTR_FXT_GETDETAIL

PrepareChangeStructure BAPI_FTR_FXT_PREP_STRUC

Reverse BAPI_FTR_FXT_REVERSE

Settle BAPI_FTR_FXT_SETTLE

The interfaces for the existing BAPIs have not been changed and their functions have only changedslightly:

- The BAPIs return a success message in the RETURN parameter due to a success. Warning messagesare returned for the consistency check.

- If errors occur, an error message is included in the RETURN parameter as well as error and warningmessages that have occurred in the consistency check.

After the coding has been restructured and grouped together for services, the architecture of the BAPIs inthe foreign exchange area is as follows:

In the function group FTR_API, services are provided using function modules. These services correspondto processing a tab page for the online transaction. In the BAPIs, the services are simply called up in theappropriate sequence and supplied with data. This means you can easily create additional BAPIs. IfBAPIs do not fulfill the required functions, customers can create a remote-enabled function module in thecustomer namespace which calls up the required services.

The business object ForeignExchange has been enhanced using the following new methods:

Method Function module

DealCreate BAPI_FTR_FXT_DEALCREATEDealChange BAPI_FTR_FXT_DEALCHANGEDealGet BAPI_FTR_FXT_DEALGET

- With the DealCreate method you can now create a foreign exchange transaction completely withonly one call. You must enter the general data, data for a specific product category, payment details,and other flows for the method.

- With the DealChange method you can change all the data for a foreign exchange transaction withonly one call-up. You must enter the general data, data for a specific product category, paymentdetails, and other flows for the method.

- The DealGet method gets the complete data for a foreign exchange transaction (general data, datafor a specific product category, payment details, and other flows).

For the new BAPIs, the concept of selected field changes has been changed. Now a change parameterexists, also when creating, for a structure or table parameter. This change parameter indicates the fields ofthe parameter that are to be transferred. This means it is also possible to create fields without a value, thatwould usually have default values in the application.

Since payment details and other flows possibly occur several times and are therefore to be transferred astables, the TABLEINDEX column exists. This column creates a unique assignment between a parameterentry and a change parameter entry.

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 54

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 62: 10_FIN_EN

The parameters PAYDET_COMPLETE_INDICATOR and ADDFLOW_COMPLETE_INDICATORalso exist for the payment details and other flows. These parameters specify whether the entries that aretransferred to the table are complete or not. If they are set, the transferred entries are complete and existin the transaction. However, entries that are not transferred in the BAPI are deleted. If they are not set, thetransferred entries are changed and created.

10.3.10.4.8

Use

As of release mySAP ERP2005 there is another authorization object (F_T_TRANSB) in transactionmanagement.

When a transaction is called, the authorization for this transaction is checked cross-application(authorization object S_TCODE). However, if a transaction is called from another transaction then thischeck does not take place.

Therefore, there is also the authorization object F_T_TRANSB in transaction management which you canuse to control the authorizations as required. This applies particularly to the following areas:

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 61

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 69: 10_FIN_EN

- General collective processing

- Using the worklist

For more information, see the release note Syndicated Facility (New).

10.3.10.4.10.2

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005 you can map issues from bonds. The following functions are available:

- Positioning an issue is mapped using a new transaction category. There is likewise a separatetransaction category for an issue redemption. Multiple issue transactions can be created for an IDnumber. Positioning and redemptions are possible for product categories 040 - Bond and 042 Bondwith Installment Repayment.

- Condition-based flows (interest, repayments) can be posted using a payer/payee or payment request.Information from the master data of the respective securities account is used as the default value.You can override this information when posting condition-based flows or other flows manually.

- When entering issue transactions, issue charges can be accrued/deferred for the term of a bond.

- For the accrual/deferral of interest and the calculation of amortizations and valuations, the samefunctions are available as for asset positions.

- Securities account positions or subledger positions for issues are displayed with positive nominalamounts and negative values.

- For evaluation purposes, the issue position can be grouped with hedging instruments (for example,swaps) using a reference. The new reference category ICH - Issuance Contract Hedge is availablefor this purpose.

The following restrictions apply:

- It is not possible to assign a liability position to an issue program.

- Redemptions from issues are only possible in the same liability securities account and the samegeneral valuation class as for positioning. The system therefore does not display redemption andpositioning as separate positions. This means it is not possible to map redemptions as separate assetitems (for example, according to German Commercial Code).

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 64

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 72: 10_FIN_EN

Effects on Customizing

You need to make settings for issues in the following IMG activities:

Define Securities Account CategoriesHere you create securities account categories for securities account type 2 - liability securities account.Positioning and redemptions of issues can only be entered in securities accounts with a category of thatkind.

Define Transaction TypesHere you define transactions types for the new transaction types 300 - issue: positioning and 400 - issue:redemption.

In the IMG activity Assign Update Types to Condition Types, you define update types for condition typesfor asset and liability positions.

See also

For more information see the release notes on reporting Issue Position.

10.3.10.4.10.3

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005, you can specify the securities account category, securities account type,and payment information in the securities account master data.

The securities account category distinguishes asset securities accounts from issuance and lendingsecurities accounts. Only security issues are managed in issuance securities accounts. Only lent securitiesthat are part of a securities lending transaction are managed in lending securities accounts.

In addition to the house bank, house bank account, and payment currency, you can now specify furtherpayment information. This information is used as default value if condition-based flows are posted fromthe relevant securities account (interest, dividends, repayments) using a payer/payee or payment request.

Effects on Existing Data

It is not necessary to adjust or change data for securities accounts that already exist in the system. Thesystem treats securities accounts without a securities account category as asset securities accounts.

Effects on Customizing

You define securities account categories in Customizing under Define Securities Account Category. Todefine a securities account category, specify a securities account type.

Short text

Syndicated Facility (New)

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005 you can map syndicated facilities as well as bilateral facilities.

The following new functions exist:

- You can assign multiple business partners (banks) as facility participants to a facility. You canvariably determine the issued commitment for each facility participant both individually and duringthe term. This makes it possible, for example, to map a dependency over time of the banksparticipating in the facility.

- One of the banks takes on the leading role of the administrative agent. This bank carries out allcorrespondence and processes all payments, amongst other things. You can assign a rank that youdefined beforehand in Customizing, to the other syndicate members. You can make time-dependentrank assignments.

- One of the banks participating in the facility can assign its commitment either completely or partlyto the secondary market, in other words, to other banks. You can store information about this fordocumentation purposes in the system.

- You can define multiple lines of credit for a facility. In addition to the main line of credit whichdescribes the total credit lines, you can also determine further sublines of credit and assign them tospecific facility participants.

- You define the lines of credit that can be assigned to the facilities in a separate transaction. Whendefining swinglines (sublines of credit for short-term financial borrowing in a foreign currency), youcan define the appropriate foreign currency. Drawings from the swingline are then always translatedinto this currency. When defining a line of credit, you can also enter whether a drawing is permittedon this credit line or whether it can merely be used to define further sublines of credit.

- When drawing on a facility you have two options:

a) Syndicated Drawing:The drawn amount is split between all syndicate participants according to their confirmedamount.

b) Competitive Bid:The requested amount is provided by one single bank only.

- To calculate charges that are due on the utilization or non-utilization of the facility, you can definescaled charges. For example, you can define a charge amounting to 10 basis points for utilizationbelow a threshold amount. For greater utilization you define a charge of 15 basis points.

Effects on Existing Data

The data from the bilateral facilities that already exist in the system must not be adjusted or changed.

Effects on Customizing

In addition to the IMG activities for bilateral facilities, the following activities are relevant for syndicatedfacilities:

- Define Product Types:With the facility category field you control whether bilateral or syndicated facilities are mappedwith the facility product type. If the facility category field is not filled, the system assumes it is aproduct type for bilateral facilities per default. In addition you can determine whether to considercompetitive bids when calculating utilization charges.

- Define Partner Rank:Here you define the ranks that can be assigned to the syndicate participants.

10.3.10.4.10.5

10.3.10.4.10.6

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005, the Transaction Manager of Treasury and Risk Management providesXI interfaces for automatically transferring transactions that were concluded on a marketplace.

The following financial products from the Foreign Exchange Transactions area are currently supported:

- FX Spot und Forward

- FX Swap

- FX Options (plain vanilla)

In contrast to the previous BAPI interfaces, XI interfaces function independently of their Customizingsettings, Customizing terms, and their organizational structure. It is sufficient for your business partner (acounterparty or a marketplace) to simply send you the structure characteristics of the transaction.

Effects on Data Transfer

You can use tools from the SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI) to technically map external formats (forexample, XML) to the SAP XI interface TreasuryDealNotification . There are two new Business Add-Ins(BAdIs) for business mapping. You can use these, for example:

- when translating the external partner ID to the key in your business partner master data.

- for specifying terms that depend on your Customizing settings (for example, product types andtransaction types).

Received transactions are held and further processed in different data structures. The following steps arecarried out sequentially:

1. Internal SAP Step: The system converts the XI message and preassigns the EXT structures.

2. Call BAdI:(FTR_XI_INTERFACE_MAPPING, Method MAPPING )You can implement this BAdI if, for example, you prefer the actual view of theTreasuryDealNotification message type or you have enhanced the interface with your ownfields/elements.

3. Internal SAP Step: Default values of INT structures.

4. Call BADI:(FTR_XI_INTERFACE_MAPPING, Method GET_ID_TYPES):Here you give SAP the ID types for the business partner identification from the view of the provider(counterparty) or exchanges.

5. Internal SAP Step: When you have informed SAP of your ID types, SAP tries to select an existing business partnerusing this data and the "external" business partner ID included in the message. Note: (See SAP

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 68

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 76: 10_FIN_EN

business partner master data, tab page "Identification." Alternative ID numbers can be defined thereand assigned to the "ID types.")

6. Call BAdI: (FTR_XI_GENERAL_MAPPING, Method PRE_MAPPING)You can implement this BAdI to carry out, for example, checks and further steps that are only usefulafter successful conversion of the business partner IDs.

7. Call Derivation Tool:Two sequences are always carried out here:

- Sequence for general transaction information.

- Sequence for specific mapping for each financial product.

If you have not implemented any of these BAdIs up to now, you must execute the externalbusiness partner IDs for internal business partner IDs and their company code (requestor), andassign a product type and transaction type. Other fields are optional.

8. Call BAdI: (FTR_XI_GENERAL_MAPPING, Method POST_MAPPING)You can implement this BAdI to make, for example, checks and further steps that are only usefulafter processing in the derivation tool.

9. Internal SAP Step: You must have specified all data in the required fields to create the transactions. BAPI interfaces areused to check and create the transactions.

Effects on Customizing

You can find the new BAdIs in the IMG under Transaction Manager -> General Settings -> TransactionManagement -> External Link

- BAdI: Receive XI Message Type "TreasuryDealNotification" (FTR_XI_INTERFACE_MAPPING)Here you have complete access to the TreasuryDealNotification interface or the enhancements.

- BAdI: Receive Financial Transactions (General View)(FTR_XI_GENERAL_MAPPING)Here you have access to flat structures that have already been processed. They should facilitatemapping and how you proceed.

Further transactions are also available that allow mapping with the derivation tool. You can also defineassignments and derivation rules without any programming knowledge:

- Mapping for general transaction information.

- Mapping for spot exchange and forward transactions

- Mapping for foreign exchange swaps

- Mapping for currency options

10.3.10.4.10.7

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005 , it is possible to map asset backed securities (ABS) and mortgagebacked securities (MBS) from the view of an investor. The following functions are available:

- There is the new product category 042 - Bond with Installment Repayment for ABS / MBS. Everytranche has its own ID number. In the class data, the new Tranche Classification field and ExpectedEnd of Term field are available as basic data. You can also assign a rank to the various businesspartners involved. You can enter data on the underlying asset pool for every ID number. You canmap repayments within redemption schedules using factors or nominal amounts. You can also mapABS / MBS repayments flexibly as installment repayments.

- Based on enhancements in the class data, the following BAPIs have been adjusted accordingly:BAPI_FP_CREATEFROMDATA Create Class

BAPI BAPI_RSS_CREATE Create Redemption Schedule Set

BAPI_RSS_CHANGE_SCHEDULE Change Redemption Schedule

BAPI_RSS_ADD_SCHEDULE Add Redemption Schedule

BAPI_FP_GETDETAIL Read Class

BAPI_RSS_GET_DETAIL Read Redemption Schedule

- The system differentiates between the original nominal amount and the nominal amount for productcategory 042 - Bond with Installment Repayment. The original nominal amount is the amount thatexists without taking into account the nominal amount that has already been repaid.

- Specify the original nominal amount when creating a purchase or sale. The system calculates thenominal amount based on the relevant redemption schedule in the class. The nominal amount can beadjusted within specific limits. The corresponding factors in the redemption schedule cannot bechanged.

- You specify the original nominal amount for a securities account transfer, a valuation class transfer,and for exercising rights of notice. The corresponding factors in the redemption schedule cannot bechanged.

- You can adjust the nominal amount within specific limits for manual debit positions. Thecorresponding factors in the redemption schedule cannot be changed.

- A new component is available for accumulated repayments in position management within the newposition management category 8 - Securities/Loans with Installment Repayment (WithoutIndex-Linked Bonds). Therefore, the system does not recognize an installment repayment as outflowand does not calculate rate gains/losses.

- Fields are now available for the original nominal amount and for the accumulated repayments wheninitializing a new valuation area and for the legacy data transfer.

- The current redemption schedule is fixed in the class master data for every amortization flow. Thecash flow and the effective interest rate are therefore still recognized at a later date. This meansdifferent variants of the effective interest method are provided to calculate amortization results.(Immediate adjustment of effective interest rate, deferred adjustment, or constant effective interestrate). You can also waive amortizations for installment repayments.

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 70

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 78: 10_FIN_EN

For loans from SAP Loans Management that are created and repaid in release mySAP ERP 2005, you canuse the new functions in the Position Management of Treasury and Risk Management to manageinstallment repayments (position management procedure and amortization procedure).

The following restrictions apply:

You cannot change the nominal amount in the interest condition period (regarding the calculation date)for product category 042 - Bond with Installment Repayment. Otherwise, the system does not calculatethe interest amount correctly. You must therefore choose an interest period that is small enough in theclass.

Effects on Existing Data

- Classes with other product categories cannot be managed with the new position managementcategory 8 - Securities/Loans with Installment Repayment (Without Index-Linked Bonds).

- It is not possible to transfer positions with previous position management categories to the newposition management category 8 - Securities/Loans with Installment Repayment (WithoutIndex-Linked Bonds). This means that the new function for managing installment repayments cannotbe used for repaid loans from SAP Loans Management that were already managed in the PositionManagement of Treasury and Risk Management.

Effects on Customizing

The following IMG activities are relevant for ABS / MBS:

10.3.10.4.10.8

Use

As of release mySAP ERP 2005, you can map securities lending as financial transactions in the system.This is restricted to transactions in which a position in the system is lent to another company. Securitieslending transactions are mapped using product category 770 (contract type derivatives).This function is available for all financial transactions in Treasury and Risk Management, regardless ofthe product category.

The following functions are also available:

- You can create fixed and open-ended securities lending transactions. You can roll over fixedsecurities lending transactions and terminate open-ended securities lending transactions.

- You transfer a lent value (partial) position at the start of the securities lending term from thesecurities account to a lending securities account. You transfer it back at the end of the securitieslending term.

- The lent positions are still visible in subledger position management and can be valuated.

- The system makes sure that lent positions cannot be sold or transferred to other securities accounts.

- You can define whether dividends or interest flows are generated for lent positions or not usingsettings in Customizing.

- You can define the revenues from a lending transaction using two methods:

- As a percentage which refers to the market price (number or nominal amount multiplied by themarket price) when the contract was concluded.

- As a fixed amount

You can enter a calculation frequency and other payment information for both methods.

- You can define two types of collateral for a transaction:

- Securities collateral:The collateral can be defined time-dependent in the system. (The system does not make anypostings to the general ledger.) If the relevant data exists in the system, the system displays therelevant market values.

- Cash collateral:Is entered as a flow and can be posted to the general ledger so that it can be displayed as aliability in the balance sheet if necessary.

The following restrictions apply with regard to mapping securities lending transactions in the system:

- You cannot map any securities lending transactions in which a position is borrowed from anothercompany.

- The number (or nominal amount) of the lent security must be fixed for a specific period / time. Itcannot be changed during the term, notice, or rollover.

______________________________________________________________SAP AG 72

SAP-System______________________________________________________________

Page 80: 10_FIN_EN

- No positions are managed for the defined securities collateral. This means that positions cannot bevaluated and do not appear in reporting. Therefore, interest and dividends cannot be calculated.

- It is not possible to exercise rights on lent positions or carry out corporate actions.

- It is not possible to valuate a securities lending transaction.Note: This only applies to the securities lending transaction as an independent entity but not for lentsecurities which can still be valuated.

Effects on Customizing

The following IMG activities are relevant for securities lending transactions:

- Define Product Types and Define Transaction TypesNote: During the definition of the product type, you need to enter whether it is a fixed oropen-ended securities lending.
