Summary of the Generate Default Accrual Account Subprocess

To view the properties of this process, select the process in the navigator tree, then choose Properties from the Edit menu. This process has a result type of Flexfield Result, indicating that when the process completes, it has a result of Failure or Success. These results correspond to the lookup codes in the Flexfield Result lookup type in the Standard Flexfield Workflow item type.

This process activity is not runnable, indicating that it cannot be initiated as a top-level process to run, but rather can be run only as a subprocess when called by a higher-level process.

The subprocess begins at node 1.

Node 2 checks if the destination type for the item is Inventory, Shop Floor, or Expense.

For expense items, node 8 first checks if the item is project-related. If it is, the subprocess at node 11 builds a project-related account, if you have customized that subprocess to do so.

If the item is not project-related, node 9 gets the accrual account. For inventory and shop floor items, node 3 gets the accrual account from the organization. See the table in the section Using the Account Generator in Oracle Purchasing.

Nodes 5 and 6 are standard flexfield workflow activities. See: Standard Flexfield Workflow.
