0&FUNCTIONALITY&
This method is used to send FI-relevant data for Collections Management.
Note in the interface documentation that in all tables, the fieldPARTNER (business partner number) refers to the customernumber of FI. The related business partner in Collections Managementis determined from the table EXT_KEY_FIGURES:
The GUID of the business partner is determined from the partner(customer number in FI) and the FI company code using the fieldBU_PARTNER_GUID. The related business partner in CollectionsManagement is also determined in this way.
The field XINITIAL_LOAD is particularly important (recreation ofdata in Collections Management) in table KEY_FIGURES. If thisindicator is set, the data of this business partner is recreated. If thetables LAST_PAYMENT and ITEMS do not contain any furtherinformation on the relevant customer, the data of this business partneris deleted in Collections Management.
The table LAST_PAYMENT contains information about payments (inthe standard system, it always contains all payments for the last 99days). Note that the payments are always updated, this means, allpayments of a business partner that already exist are deleted inCollections Management and are then updated by the existing payments inthe table LAST_PAYMENT.
The table ITEMS contains information about open items that are tobe added or changed.
The table ITEMS _DEL contains items to be deleted (for example,due to clearing an invoice item).
The tables EXT_KEY_FIGURES and EXT_ITEMS containenhancements at the 'key figures' and 'open items' level of a businesspartner, if you want to send additional attributes of a customer oradditional attributes of open items to Collections Management. However,you first need to include the additional attributes in the customerinclude CI_UDM_COLL_KEYFIG of table UDM_COLL_KEYFIG (keyfigures of a business partner) or in the customer includeCI_UDM_S_COLL_ITEM_ATTR of table UDM_COLL_ITEM (openitems) in the Collections Management system:
You transfer the appropriate field names that you have included in thecustomer include CI_UDM_COLL_KEYFIG orCI_UDM_S_COLL_ITEM_ATTR to the field ATTR_ID of the tablesEXT_KEY_FIGURES and EXT_ITEMS. You transfer theappropriate value to the field ATTR_VALUE.
You also need to add the reference to the open invoice item foradditional attributes for open items. You can transfer it from the tableITEMS.

Example
You always want to transfer all existing FI-relevant data from AccountsReceivable Accounting to Collections Management.
To do this, set the indicator XINITIAL_LOAD to 'X' in the tableKEY_FIGURES. This specifies that this is a recreation and alwaysdistributes all current information to the tables KEY_FIGURES,LAST_PAYMENT, and ITEMS. You enter the business partnerGUID (ATTR_VALUE) for each customer in an FI company code usingthe attribute BU_PARTNER_GUID (ATTR_ID) in the tableEXT_KEY_FIGURES (as mentioned above).
