1. Manage Account Rules

1. Create a New Account Rule for Cash Management to derive the offset account for bank account transfer transactions.
 2. In the account rule:

1. Specify the GL account to be used as offset for Bank Transfer transactions

2. For the Offset rule – specify condition as "External Cash Transaction Source" = ORA_BAT

The condition has to be entered manually - using the controls (source, operator, etc - doesn't seem to work)

2. Manage Subledger Journal Entry Rule Sets

Create a new journal entry rule set which uses the offset account rule for the External Transaction Offset CR/DR lines.
3. Edit Accounting Method
Assign the new rule set (created in step 2) to the Subledger Accounting Method that is associated to the Ledger.
 On internal environments - Vision Operations ledger accounting method will be either "Standard Accrual" or "New Vision
Operations for Projects"

4. Validate in Cash Management

Once the SLA setup is done and activated, for external transactions created for Bank Account Transfers, the offset account does not
have to be populated at the transaction level. The offset account is fetched as per the SLA rules at the time of accounting.
