Oracle General Ledger - Version 12.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Receivables and Payables transactions are transferred to General Ledger. A journal is generated in the Primary Ledger and the
Reporting currency ledger. However, Posting the journal in the Primary ledger also generated a journal in the Reporting
Currency.
Itis expected that only one journal will be generated in the Primary Ledger and Reporting Currency.
STEPS
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1, Execute Create Accounting (with Transfer to GL) at subledger
2, Journals are created in primary ledger and reporting currency.
3, Post the journal in the primary ledger.
4. After Posting in the primary ledger, another journal is generated in the reporting currency.
This is caused by incorrect setup of the Journal Conversion Rules for the Reporting Currency.
The Journal Conversion Rules for the Reporting Currency show Receivables and Payables have field ‘Convert Journals to this
Reporting Currency’ set to Yes.
Per the 12.1 Financials Implementation Guide page 3-54:
For subledger level reporting currencies, the journal sources for all transaction sources that use Subledger Accounting
must be set to No in the Convert Journals to this Reporting Currency field. Any journal source that uses Subledger
‘Accounting
to generate Its accounting entries must not be converted to the reporting currency using General Ledger Posting because
Subledger Accounting automatically performs the conversion for these subledger journals,

Warning: If you incorrectly choose Yes in the Convert Journals to this Reporting currency field for any transaction sources
that use Subledger Accounting,
the journal will be double counted; once by Subledger Accounting and once by General Ledger Posting, You will need to
reverse the journal in General Ledger.
Per the 12.1 Financials Implementation Guide 1 Page 3-85: Special Note for Subledger Level Secondary
Ledgers
For subledger level secondary ledgers, the journal sources for transaction sources that use Subledger Accounting
must be set to No in the Transfer Journals to this Secondary ledger field. Any journal source that uses Subledger Accounting
to generate its accounting entries must not be converted to the secondary ledger using General Ledger Posting because
‘Subledger Accounting automatically performs the conversion for these subledger journals,
** To identify the unwanted duplicate subledger journals execute the scripts found in How to Identify Duplicated Journals in
‘Secondary or Reporting Ledger with Subledger Conversion Level Setup (Doc ID 1965740.1),
To implement the solution, please execute the following:
1. (N) GL Responsibility > Setup > Financials > Accounting Setup Manager > Accounting Setups
Query the primary ledger.
2. For secondary ledgers change the Journal Conversion Rules as follows:
(N) Primary to Secondary Ledger Mapping > Update
Set the "Transfer Journals to this Secondary Ledger' to No for all Subledgers that use Subledger Accounting (i.
Receivables, Payables, etc.)
3. For any reporting currency attached to a primary or secondary ledger change the Journal Conversion Rules as follows:
(N) Reporting Currencies > Update > Select Update for desired reporting currency
Set the ‘Convert Journals to this Reporting Currency’ to No for all Subledgers that use Subledger Accounting (i.e.
Receivables, Payables, etc.).
NOTE: For any secondary ledgers and any reporting currencies be careful not to set Other/Other to No as this will cause
your manual
General Ledger journals to not be converted either - unless those specific source/categories are listed separately
and set to Yes.
4, Retest the issue,
5. If satisfied with the results, migrate to other instances as needed.
