Receivables uses AutoAccounting to create the revenue accounts for your invoice after you enter your invoice lines. You can review or update the revenue account assignments for your invoice in the Distributions window.
Note: The default accounting that AutoAccounting creates is considered interim accounting only. Receivables integrates with Oracle Subledger Accounting, the E-Business Suite's centralized accounting engine, which accepts the default accounts that AutoAccounting derives without change. However, you can modify the accounting rules in Subledger Accounting to create accounting that meets your business requirements. See: Accounting in Receivables.
If you are reviewing an invoice that uses rules, you must run the Revenue Recognition Program before you can view accounting information in this window. See: Recognizing Revenue.
You can change the Accounting Flexfield for each account, but you cannot create or delete lines in the Distributions window. If you change a row that has already been posted, Receivables does not alter the posted entry; instead, it makes the adjustments through additional entries. For a list of fields you can update, see: Maintaining Your Transactions.
Prerequisites
Navigate to the Transaction or the Transactions Summary window.
Query the transaction to view.
Note: You can also view the detail accounting lines in the form of a balanced accounting entry (i.e., debits equal credits) or as t-accounts by choosing View Accounting from the Tools menu.
See: Viewing Accounting Lines.
If you are in the Transactions Summary window, select the transaction, then choose Open.
Choose Distributions.
If this invoice uses invoicing rules, you can view the account sets for this invoice by opening the Sets for All Lines tabbed region.
Note: You can also view accounting information by choosing Lines in the Transaction window, and then choosing Distributions.
To update the revenue account assignments for this invoice or invoice line, modify the GL Account information for that account.
Note: The default percent amount of each invoice line assigned to an account is 100% unless AutoAccounting is based on Salesperson and the salesperson assignment is split. In this case, the field will reflect the split and you can either accept this percentage or enter another one. If you change the percent, Receivables calculates the Amount.
