Creating SAF Codes
Use the SAF Code activities (25.3.7.2) to create the values that you assign to an SAF concept. They generally correspond to the individual item for which you require analysis. For example, you can track transactions relating to a particular vehicle belonging to the organization by creating an SAF code of the vehicle registration number.
Every SAF concept must have at least one default SAF code—defined in the SAF structure where it is used—and you can link any number of codes to the same concept.
You build SAF analysis for an account by creating an SAF code for each type of transaction that updates the account.
You build the list of SAF codes for both system-defined and user-defined SAF concepts manually.
