Brian,
 
There are several places that you can find the identity of the files and  
their contents. There are also various ways to determine what info you need from  
which database. Any experienced BPCS person can help.

subject: [BPCS-L] Tables & Field Names  in BPCS 2.1
All,
This is a great forum. As an accountant I  dontunderstand a lot of what
you guys are saying(too computer smart for me)  but Im trying to learn
all I can about this system. It appears to be pretty  old, so Im not
certain there is any info available for it any  more.
Reading old posts I was able to configure the database for use  with
Microsoft Query to enable some custom reporting. I can see the  tables
and am successfully seeing data in excel via my queries. The table  names
are not very friendly unfortunately. I have located some key tables  for
my needs, but Im curious to see if there is an all encompassing list  of
tables and their fields so I can determine where best to look to  find
certain information. Im mostly interested in the  following:
Inventory quantities, part #'s, values
AR & AP open  transactions
General Ledger accounts, transactions
Any insight you  could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian  Brosch

Inventory quantities, part #'s, values       IIM,
IWM,IWI,ILI,ITH(Item Master, Warehouse  Master, WH/Item Master

Paths) 
Note also: Current balance has to  be
calculated  Balance= IOPB-IISSU+IRCT+IADJU
AR & AP open  transactions                 AR -->  RCM, RAR (Customer
Master, Receivables  Details)
Note! RAR
held Invoice or  Creditnote both Original and Remaining
Amoumts  on RSEQ (Sequence  Number) = 000, Then RSEQ is bumped for 
Payments,
Debit Memo, Credit Meno etc
AP--> AVM,  APH, APL,
APO  (Vendor Master, Invoice header, Invoice Lines  and
Invoiced items (for 3-way match))
General Ledger accounts, transactions       GGM, GJH,  GJD (Account
