GOAL

What are the basic steps in Release 12 to reconcile online accruals with the accrual account balance in GL?

SOLUTION

First, it is strongly recommended that latest patches for the Accrual Reconciliation Load Run process be applied. See Doc ID
1490578.1 for a current list of patches to apply and steps to perform to get the latest fixes.

The following steps can then be performed to reconcile online (perpetual) accruals with General Ledger:

1. Receiving Accounting

a) Ensure that all receiving transactions have been processed for the period.
b) Using the 'Cost Management - SLA' responsibility, submit the 'Create Accounting - Cost Management' program using these
parameters:

- Ledger = <ledger name>

- Process Category = <leave blank>
- End Date = <end date of the accounting period>
- Mode = Final
- Errors Only = No
- Report = Summary
- Transfer to General Ledger = Yes
- Post in General Ledger = Yes
- General Ledger Batch Name = <leave blank>
- Include User Transaction Identifiers = <yes or no>

c) Using the 'Cost Management - SLA' responsibility, also submit 'Transfer Journal Entries to GL - Cost Management' program
using these parameters:

- Ledger = <ledger name>

- Category = <leave blank>
- End Date = <end date of the accounting period>
- Post in General Ledger = Yes
- General Ledger Batch Name = <leave blank>

This will process any receiving accounting records which were not previously transferred to GL when Create Accounting was
run.
2. Payables Accounting

a) Ensure that all invoice transactions in Payables have been processed for the period.
b) Using a Payables responsibility, submit the 'Create Accounting' program using these parameters:

- Ledger = <ledger name>

- Process Category = <leave blank>
- End Date = <end date of the accounting period>
- Mode = Final
- Errors Only = No
- Report = Summary
- Transfer to General Ledger = Yes
- Post in General Ledger = Yes
- General Ledger Batch Name = <leave blank>
- Include User Transaction Identifiers = <yes or no>

c) Using a Payables responsibility, also submit 'Transfer Journal Entries to GL' program using these parameters:

- Ledger = <ledger name>

- Category = <leave blank>
- End Date = <end date of the accounting period>
- Post in General Ledger = Yes
- General Ledger Batch Name = <leave blank>

This will process any Payables accounting records which were not previously transferred to GL when Create Accounting was
run.

3. Using a General Ledger responsibility, ensure that all journals from the Cost Management, Payables, Inventory, and Work
In Process subledgers have been imported and posted in GL.

4. Using either a Purchasing, Payables, or Cost Management - SLA responsibility, submit the 'Accrual Reconciliation Load Run'
process.

- Date From = <enter a date or leave blank>

- Date To = <last day of the accounting period>

5. Submit the 'Summary Accrual Reconciliation Report'.

Review the report output. Take note of each accrual account and its balance.

6. Submit the 'Account Analysis Report' for each accrual account appearing in the 'Summary Accrual Reconciliation Report'.
The following parameters can be used:

- Ledger/Ledger Set = <ledger name>

- Period From = <current period>
- Period To = <current period>
- Balance Type = Actual
- Accounting Flexfield From = <accrual account>
- Account Flexfield To = <accrual account>
- Include Zero Amount Lines = Yes
- Include User Transaction Identifiers = Yes
- Include Statistical Amount Lines = Yes
- Include Accounts With No Activity = Yes

Review the report output. Take note of the account ending balance. This should reconcile to the account balance shown in
the 'Summary Accrual Reconciliation Report'.
