What are the setup options that determines if transfer to GL is in detail or summarized mode

What are the setup options that determines if transfer to GL is in detail or summarized mode

There are two variables that determine how the data is transferred to GL from the subledger tables XLA_AE_HEADERS and XLA_AE_LINES. These setups determine whether accounting data from across multiple transactions in the subledger will be merged or not merged while inserting rows into the GL_JE_HEADERS and GL_JE_LINES tables.
a) Subledger Accounting Options
Navigation: Accounting Setups : Ledger Setup : Define : Accounting Setups
Choose the ledger
Click on “Update Accounting Options”
Scroll to Subledger Accounting Options in the Primary Ledger section
Click on Update Icon
Click on Update Icon against the Application to be setup(Example: Payables)
i] Field: General Ledger Journal Entry Summarization
This can be set to ONE of the following:
  • Summarize by GL Period
  • Summarize by GL Date
  • No Summarization
This setup determines if the accounting header is summarized or not.
ii] Field: General Ledger Journal Entry Summarization:
‘Group by GL Period’ and ‘Group by GL Date’
b) Journal Line Types
Navigation: Accounting Setups: Subledger Accounting Setup: Accounting Methods Builder: Journal
Entry Setups
Form: “Define Journal Line Types”
Field: Transfer to GL
This can be set to Summary or Detail
This setup determines if the accounting lines in XLA_AE_LINES are summarized during transfer to GL.
Note 1: Lines cannot be summarized if the headers are not summarized.
If “General Ledger Journal Entry Summarization” is set to No Summarization, the “Transfer to GL” setups in the Journal Line Types are irrelevant. The lines and headers are not summarized in this scenario.
Note 2: Irrespective of transfer in Detail or Summary, there is always a one-to-one correspondence between the XLA_AE_LINES and GL_IMPORT_REFERENCES tables.

Q1) What are the different combinations of the two setup options that determine if transfer to GL is in summary or detail and the corresponding outcome?

Note: The “No Summarzation” option causes the level of detail in the GL to be the same as in the Subledger i.e. the same number of headers and lines.

Public API’s for FA Transactions

Public API’s for FA Transactions So far Oracle FA is have all the good things except the lack on reporting.Oracle FA is now offer lot of public API's that can be used to interfacing with third party or Oracle application other modules. Here are some of transaction's API's:   Additions API if you have requirement to add assets directly via PL/SQL then use  FA_ADDITION_PUB.DO_ADDITION. If you have selected the Allow CIP Assets check box on the Book Controls window of a tax book when adding CIP assets using the Additions API, the this API automatically adds those CIP assets to that tax book at the same time that they are added to the corporate book. Adjustments API you can make cost adjustments to your assetsdirectly via PL/SQL using  FA_ADJUSTMENT_PUB.DO_ADJUSTMENT  for any  process adjustment. Detail can be found in appendix H) You can use this API if you have a custom interface that makes it difficult to use with the existing Oracle Assets interfaces for adjusti...

Unbilled Receivables and Unearned Revenue Accounting in Oracle Projects

Unbilled Receivables and Unearned Revenue Accounting in Oracle Projects Introduction When it comes to contractual billing, invoice and revenue generation are two separate processes, which during the lifespan of a project may or may not always coincide with each other and so do the balances in revenue and receivables accounts.  This interim difference between revenue and invoice account balances is bridged using Unbilled Receivables (UBR) and Unearned Revenue (UER) Accounts. Unearned Revenue (UER) Unearned Revenue (also termed as deferred revenue or UER) signifies money received for the goods or services, which are yet to be delivered.  As per the principles of Revenue Recognition, UER is recorded as on the balance sheet unless it is converted to Revenue upon delivery of goods or services For Example XYZ Consulting Ltd. receives an annual maintenance contract of $ 12,000 on Dec 31, 2014 for the period of Jan 01, 2015 to Dec 31, 2015. At the start of the contract as of Dec 31, 2...
