You can use the View Accounting option from the Tools menu to review accounting entries for expenditure items for which you have created accounting in Oracle Subledger Accounting. You must create accounting in final mode for the accounting events associated with the expenditure item before you can view accounting entries. If an expenditure item has multiple cost distribution lines, then you can view accounting for each cost distribution line that is accounted in Oracle Subledger Accounting. Similarly, if you adjust an expenditure item and do not create accounting for the adjustments in Oracle Subledger Accounting, then the View Accounting window only shows the accounted cost distribution lines.
Note: For both historical (prior to Release 12) expenditure items not migrated to Oracle Subledger Accounting, and transactions accounted in an external system and interfaced into Oracle Projects, the View Accounting option displays the accounts from the cost distributions table in Oracle Projects.
Note: The View Expenditure Accounting window displays final accounting entries from Oracle Subledger Accounting. It does not display default accounts that Oracle Projects derived using AutoAccounting. To view default accounts from AutoAccounting, see: Viewing Expenditure Items.
If you create accounting in draft mode, then you can either review the output from the create accounting process or use Subledger Accounting Inquiry to view the draft accounting. For information about Subledger Accounting Inquiry, see: Oracle Subledger Accounting Inquiries and the Oracle Subledger Accounting Implementation Guide.
If a receipt is associated with non-recoverable tax in Oracle Purchasing, then Oracle Cost Management creates final accounting for the full amount (receipt and tax) in Oracle Subledger Accounting. If the purchase order line is project-related and set to accrue-at-receipt, then the process PRC: Interface Supplier Costs interfaces the receipt and non-recoverable tax to Oracle Projects as separate expenditure items. As a result, when you select the View Accounting option for either expenditure item, you see the accounting for the full amount, not just for the expenditure item that you selected.
The following examples illustrates the accounting flow for receipt accruals with non-recoverable tax:
You enter a receipt in Oracle Purchasing for $110 USD, where $100 USD is the item cost and $10 USD is non-recoverable tax.
Oracle Cost Management creates subledger accounting in final mode for the total amount. The debit to the purchase order charge account is $110 USD.
You run the process PRC: Interface Supplier Costs. The process creates two expenditure items as follows:
$100 USD expenditure item with a transaction source of Oracle Purchasing Receipt Accruals for the item cost
$10 USD expenditure item with a transaction source of Non-Recoverable Tax from Purchasing Receipts for the non-recoverable tax
In Expenditure Inquiry, when you select either the receipt accrual or the non-recoverable tax expenditure item and choose the View Accounting option, you see the full subledger accounting entry, a debit of $110 USD to the purchase order charge account.
Query the expenditure transaction you want to view.
From the Expenditure Items window, choose View Accounting from the Tools menu.
You see the View Expenditure Accounting window.
Note: The View Expenditure Accounting window is a folder window that you can customize to display additional columns. See: Customizing the Presentation of Data in a Folder, Oracle E-Business Suite User's Guide.
(Optional) To view the accounting detail for the selected line as T-accounts, choose T-Accounts. In the Options window that opens, select from the Default Window poplist, and then choose from the window buttons to drill down in General Ledger.
See: T-Accounts, Oracle General Ledger User's Guide
(Optional) You can view accounting in reporting currencies when you assign reporting currencies to a ledger. To view accounting in a reporting currency, select the Reporting Currency button. Next choose a ledger in the Choose Reporting Currency window, and select the Change button.
You can select the Drilldown option from the Tools menu of an Oracle General Ledger journal to view all subledger journal entry lines associated with the journal. From subledger journal entry lines, you can navigate to the subledger journal entries or drill down to the subledger transaction. This drilldown feature enables you to view the details from Oracle Projects.
Note: Drilling down to subledger transactions is only supported for Oracle subledgers that use Oracle Subledger Accounting, such as Oracle Projects, Oracle Payables, Oracle Assets, Oracle Receivables, and Oracle Purchasing.
You can use Subledger Accounting Inquiry features to query accounting events, journal entries, and journal entry lines based on multiple selection criteria. When you view the transaction for an accounting event, Oracle Subledger Accounting drills down to Oracle Projects and automatically opens and queries information in expenditure inquiry or revenue review, depending on the event class for the accounting event.
