Creating Accounting in Receivables

For each accounting event, Receivables uses AutoAccounting to derive the default accounting. You then submit the Submit Accounting program to actually create accounting entries in Oracle Subledger Accounting. Receivables predefines setup in Oracle Subledger Accounting so that the Submit Accounting program accepts the default accounts that AutoAccounting derives without change.

You can optionally define your own accounting rules in Subledger Accounting to create accounting that meets your business requirements. If you do so, then Subledger Accounting overwrites the default accounts, or individual segments of accounts, that AutoAccounting originally derived. However, you must still set up AutoAccounting. See: Using AutoAccounting.

Submitting the Submit Accounting Program

From the Submit Requests window, run the Submit Accounting program in either draft mode, if you want to review the results before you create the final accounting, or final mode.

For a description of the program parameters, see: Create Accounting Program.

During program submission, if you create final accounting, then those entries are automatically transferred to Subledger Accounting's interface table and, depending on other entered parameters, imported by the Journal Import program and posted in General Ledger. Draft accounting cannot be transferred to General Ledger. See: Posting.

At the conclusion of the process, the Submit Accounting program generates the Subledger Accounting Program Report. See: Oracle Subledger Accounting Program Report.

You can also create accounting entries from the Transactions window for a specific transaction, in either draft or final mode. See: Creating Accounting Information.
