CM Company Parameters

Company Tracker action: implementation-setup-cm-company-parameters Milestone: Cash Management / Module Setup (milestone_id=4, core_milestone_id=2) Order: 1 Estimated duration: 0.25 hours Typical owner: Controller

Purpose​

Set Cash Management company parameters so CM posts to the correct GL company and journal, uses the agreed interface level, and keeps audit / batch-report options on for support and reconciliation.

Prerequisites​

  • HQ Company Setup done for the company being configured.
  • GL Company Parameters and at least one usable GL Journal exist for cash activity.
  • Know whether this company is in test, go-live prep, or live processing (drives the statement beginning-balance flag).

Implementation guidance​

  • Decide GL company, cash journal, and GL interface level before first save. Recommended live interface level: Detail unless the client has a documented reason otherwise.
  • Audit options: ON for every company (same rule as other module company-parameter forms).
  • Attach batch reports to HQ Batch Control: checked (same as GL / audit policy).
  • Allow changes to statement beginning balance:
    • ON during go-live prep so the first statement(s) can take an opening balance.
    • OFF once live processing starts (turn off after cutover stabilization of the first statement cycle).
  • During some bring-live CM reconciliation procedures, GL interface level may be temporarily set to No Update while outstanding items load, then switched to the live level (Detail) with a journal once reconciliation is complete. Document that temporary change if used.
  • This action is implementation spine work even if the live Company Tracker template still only lists CM Accounts. Seed / insert when standardizing CM Module Setup.

Done when​

  • GL company and cash journal are set for this CM company.
  • GL interface level matches the agreed live policy (typically Detail).
  • Audit options and attach batch reports are on.
  • Statement beginning-balance flag matches current phase (ON for go-live prep / OFF after live start), and any temporary No Update interface period is documented.
