FIELD NAME           DESCRIPTION/VALID VALUES                    UPDATED BY

SLS-LEDGER           Alpha 15
Ledger               The name that identifies the strategic
                     ledger.

                     The Ledger information is used to post
                     Strategic ledger data using SL190
                     (Strategic Ledger Posting) or used for
                     reporting in the OLAP environment using
                     SL87 (Strategic Ledger Data Mart Setup).


SLS-OR-GROUP         Alpha 1
Or Group             This field determines how attribute
                     information is grouped by creating an
                     and/or condition. The "and" condition
                     groups attributes, while the "or"
                     condition separates "and" groups
                     information for multiple attributes.

                     Type the same character to group
                     attributes with an "and" condition and a
                     different character to group "or"
                     conditions. The system interprets "and"
                     conditions first. Note: The system
                     identifies blank fields as a character.
                     If you identify two attributes and type
                     a character in this field for one
                     attribute, the "or" condition defaults.

                     For example, you want to compare totals
                     for unreleased (0) transactions in
                     period 12, released (1) transactions in
                     period 12, and posted (5) transactions
                     in period 12:

                     FIELD        VALUE RANGE      OR GROUP
                     --------------------------------------
                     Status       0-0                   1
                     Period       12-12                 1
                     Status       1-1
                     Period       12-12
                     Status        5-5                  2
                     Period       12-12                 2

                     The system looks at Trans Status 0-0
                     "and" Period 12-12 first, "or" Trans
                     Status 1-1 "and" Period 12-12, "or"
                     Trans Status 5-5 "and" Period 12-12.

SLS-SEGMENT          Alpha 15
User Analysis        The name that identifies the user
                     analysis.

                     A user analysis is a flexible,
                     user-defined element, much like an
                     accounting unit, account, or attribute,
                     that stores transaction information you
                     can use for reports and analysis.

                     You can use a user analysis to track
                     multiple elements of business data.




SLS-SEGMENT-TYPE     Alpha 1
Segment Type         This identifies whether the information
                     included in the ledger defined in SL50.1
                     (Strategic Ledger) General Ledger only
                     information, a user analysis field, or
                     an attribute.

                     1 = GL Segment
                     2 = User Analysis
                     3 = Attribute

SLS-SEQ-NUMBER       Numeric 6
Record Sequence      A unique number assigned to each
Number               transaction to be transferred into the
                     Lawson system.


SLS-FR-SEG-VALUE     Alpha 32
From Value           The beginning value in a range of user
                     analysis values.


SLS-TH-SEG-VALUE     Alpha 32
Through Value        The ending value in a range of user
                     analysis values.
