The Financials Parameter document is used to define parameters and business rules in Kuali Financials. A specific value of a parameter can vary based on what the parameter is used to define. Some parameters create business rules. These rules create restrictions and enforce valid values and combinations on various document types or batch processes. Other parameters simply define institution-specific values not defined elsewhere in Kuali Financials. The value may, for example, be text that Kuali Financials is to display in a given location or it may be a simple yes or no value to turn an option on or off.
The Kuali
Financials Parameters, Namespaces, Components and Parameter Types have been
separated out from the Rice Namespaces, Components, Parameter Types and
Parameters. Financials Namespaces, Components and Parameter Types cannot be
edited via the UI and require technical assistance to create or modify. Rice
Parameters can be edited via the UI, but any changes made to objects with a KFS
namespace are not reflected in the Kuali Financials Parameters, Namespaces,
Components or Parameter Types.
