Account Derivation Rules

Oracle Projects predefines account derivation rules. When Oracle Subledger Accounting uses the predefined account derivation rules that Oracle Projects provides, it accepts the default accounting that Oracle Projects generates using AutoAccounting (costs and revenue) or the Project Budget Account Generation Workflow (budgets) without change.

You can optionally define your own account derivation rules for an Accounting Flex Flexfield or for a segment. In this case, Oracle Subledger Accounting overrides the default accounts that Oracle Projects generates, or individual segment values in the default accounts, when it creates the draft or final subledger accounting.

Oracle Projects also predefines account derivation rules for Oracle Purchasing and Oracle Payables. These account derivation rules are for burden costs on project-related commitments in Oracle Purchasing and Oracle Payables.

Note: All account derivation rules that Oracle Projects predefines have an Output Type of Flexfield.
