Glossary

In order to import an xP&A data export into CFP, you must first create and configure the data transfer script Lucanet xP&A #3700-xP&A.SQL.FOS.

Note for customers who still use Lucanet.Financial Client

You can either perform this step in the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform or in Lucanet.Financial Client. The script will be visible and editable in both systems, no matter where you created it.

To create and configure the data transfer script Lucanet xP&A #3700-xP&A.SQL.FOS, proceed as follows:

In the overview, click the Import and Journals workspace.

In the tree view of the workspace, right-click Scripts or a folder and select the following from the context menu: Create | Script:

Choose one of the following options to load the script xP&A #3700-xP&A.SQL.FOS into the Scripts workspace in the subsequent dialog:

Drag and drop

the desired script into the dialog.

Click

browse

and navigate to the desired script.

Create the script.

In the detail view of the script, click Edit and configure the tabs of the script as described in the following under Script Parameters.

Click Save (or press Ctrl+S) to save the script configuration.

The Connection tab is displayed as follows, for example:

Shows the 'Connection' tab of the script Lucanet xP&A #3700-xP&A.SQL.FOS — 'Connection' tab

Configure the following options on the Connection tab:

Parameter	Description
Export IDs	Select all xP&A exports, i.e. the models that should be imported. All exports are available which have been created in xP&A and for whose model you have access permissions. You can click Refresh to update the selection of available exports.
Database	Optional: Connection to an SQL database Serves as a temporary storage location for reimporting exports already performed from xP&A and for drill-down without restarting the export from xP&A. Connection information for Lucanet.Financial Warehouse can be used here.

The Dimension configuration tab is displayed as follows, for example:

Shows the 'Dimension configuration' tab of the script Lucanet xP&A #3700-xP&A.SQL.FOS — 'Dimension configuration' tab

On the Dimension configuration tab, you map xP&A dimensions to CFP dimensions.

The key mapping dimension is entity (i.e. how does the entity dimension in your xP&A model translate to cost centers in CFP).

The following options are available on the Dimension configuration tab:

Option	When to use
Refresh dimensions from xP&A	Click Refresh dimensions from xP&A to update the available dimensions from the specified xP&A export(s).
Use dimension for reporting entity	Activate if you use a custom dimension in xP&A (not integrated from CFP) and want to map it to reporting entities manually.
Use dimension for transaction currency code	This is a legacy option and not needed in the current xP&A setups.
Assign cost centers automatically dependent on OIDs	Activate when you use the organization element structure from CFP in xP&A. The OID (unique identifier per cost center) enables automatic matching.
Assign cost centers automatically dependent on OIDs	This is a fallback option — where matches are based on name. Requires a dedicated assignment table.
Dimension mapping	Assign xP&A dimensions to Lucanet.Financial OLAP Server (FOS) dimensions. For user-defined dimensions, you can use the target dimensions UserdefinedDimension1 to UserdefinedDimension9; when configuring the data source, use the corresponding DimensionsCode as needed.

Best practice: Always create a separate assignment table for xP&A imports to avoid conflicts with other import processes.
