Functional Processing

A published business service calls processGLAccountUtility and passes an input value to the method. The processGLAccountUtility method sets processing parameters based on the input value. The method compares the input with null to determine which values are not included in the input. The order of null comparison is:

  1. Account ID

  2. Account Long ID

  3. Account Alternate

If all the values are null for these account fields, then the method evaluates these fields:

  • objectAccount

  • businessUnit

  • subsidiary

If the comparison is successful, the processGLAccountUtility method calls the internal method, InternalGLAccountUtility. The InternalGLAccountUtility method calls the ValidateAccountNumber business function (XX0901), passing in the desired action code. The business function retrieves the appropriate data from the Account Master table (F0901).

Note: This method retrieves records from F0901. The ValidateAccountNumber business function selects 19 columns from the table. Using the business function does not have a significant performance impact.
