Hi,

check the following:

11i: Modify the Account generator Workflow

R12: Modify the SLA

Thanks,

The accumulated depreciation cost center is normally taken from the asset category master. As you can define only one accumulated depreciation account combination for an asset book, you should customize your workflow or you should change the SLA (as rightly suggested by Shanmukh) depending on your apps version.

Hi myso

If you use R11, so you can run the Generate account in Oracle diagnostic tools. This request will show you the accounts generated for each asset category.

By this way you can understand the account generated steps & you can modify the Account generator Workflow

Thanks

Thanks for all for your replies
but what i can do exactly to make the Accumulated depreciation account take cost center from assignment

The answer is in the previous posts for your question.

If you are using R11, then you should modify the account generator workflow.

If you are using R12, then you should change the SLA to match your requirement. There are documents available in this website itself regarding SLA.

@tgs100
thanks so much for your reply but i meant how to modify the account generator workflow.

[tgs100]

You should go through the respective manuals for modifying the workflow. There are few whitepapers available in metalink regarding workflow.

Dear Myso,
You can modify ur work flow through Flex-field builder rules , the work flow is a tool used by developers contact ur team developer to customize the work flow according to ur business need, but first u need to understand the standard FA accounts generator process then see if it needs customization,
The default process is that:
1- The balancing segment defaults from the distribution code combination noted on the asset assigment form.
2- The Cost center, Sub account & for ex. product Segments defaults are derived from the default code combination noted in the natural accounts region in the Book Control
3- The Account value segment is derived from the the code combinations in ur asset categories.

For More Info. Read the FA User Guide, Topic 6-Accounting, subtopic Generating Account Combinations
