PSGLFLEXT
If the business function PSM, Cash-Basis Accounting and Cash Flow
Reporting (PSM_FA_CASH) is not active, you cannot use the PSGLFLEXT
totals table.
FMGLFLEXT
The field RE_ACCOUNT is used to trace cash through the system.
Therefore, PSM must be activated for the system to perform source-based
cash flow reporting.
