Did you get time to go through oracle documents and metalink to find out answers?

There are some simple questions and some medium complex questions. You can atleast try the simple questions like finding out the tables (if you are a tech consultant).

It would be better if you post the questions for which you are not able to find/understand answers from the oracle docs and metalink.

Cheers,
Saravanan

First of all thanks to Saravanan and fully agreed what he said.

1. after transferred data from sub ledgers to gl it will come to gl interface tables.which program we have to run to transfer data from backend to frontend.

<b>GL: Journals > Import > Run</b>

6. in support project we will run TAR where we will run TAR
<b>
Metalink
TAR = Technical Assistance Request</b>

22. I transferred data from legacy to oracle. Some data is not transferred to oracle . so as a function consultant where you will check to solve this.

<b>Question is not clear but as problem/error is while sending data from legacy so better to check in legacy.</b>

<b>you have given the same table names or table lines. if table lines what are the table names.</b>
What is the difference between table names and table lines?

The above given tables are the ones affected while transferring the data from AP and AR (Some one can add if I have left out any tables) to GL.

Apart from this there are some tables like XLA_EVENTS, GL_INTERFACE, GL_JE_HEADER GL_JE_LINES (in GL).
