Subledger Accounting
Overview

Copyright © 2015 Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. | 6


E-Business Suite Challenges

• Inconsistent account derivation methods


– AutoAccounting
– Account Generator
– Subledger Accounting
• Difficult to learn multiple tools
• Discrepancies between distribution and final accounts
• Limited visibility to account overrides
• Difficult to customize

Copyright © 2015 Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. | CONFIDENTIAL: All capabilities and dates are for planning purposes only and may n
Key Differences between Fusion and EBS

• All accounting derived in Oracle Subledger Accounting


• AutoAccounting and Account Generator are eliminated
• Accounts removed from cost and revenue distributions
• Exception: Imported accounts from third-party applications

• Sources expanded – approximately 500


• Project sources available to derive accounts in other subledger applications
(PO, AP, AR, Cost Management, Receipt Accounting)

Copyright © 2015 Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. | CONFIDENTIAL: All capabilities and dates are for planning purposes only and may n
Key Differences between Fusion and EBS (continued)

• Visibility to cost transactions before accounting is created


• Accounting events generated automatically
• Single cost distribution and accounting event for raw, burden, and
burdened costs
• Project-specific accounts not sent to Oracle Fusion Receivables

– Cost Center: Cost center assigned to the expenditure organization (department)
– Natural Account: Descriptive flexfield on the expenditure type
– Product: Mapped from the project classification
