Journal line description

Post by kommineni7 »

Hi all,

Normally at GL lines, we will see the standard descripiton - "Journal Import Created".

my doubts over here is..

it is the indeded functionality of oracle? For all journals it will generate the standard description or is there any other way we can change this standard descripiton?

For example, if we are transfering from payables to GL, at line level in journal, i need to see trax number or supplier name etc? Is that possible ?

what are the set ups which will contral the Journal line description?

Thanks,
Venkatesh

Hi Venkat, This is Niranjan Chillakuru

I have some solution for ur problem.,

Navigate to Payables

(1)Define Journal Line Description in Accoounting setup.

We need to copy the existing setup and do the changes accordingly.

By Clicking on conditions you can get the options.

Setup/Accounting setups/Sub ledger Accounting Setups/Accounting Method Builder/Journal Definition of Journal Entry Descriptions.



(2) Nav:- Setup/Accounting setups/Sub ledger Accounting Setups/Accounting Method Builder/Journal Definition of Journal Line Type


Define Journal Line type. in the main form enable Enable Details Option under Transfer to GL Block.

(3) Navigate Application Accounting Definitions


Query With application.,

Click on Journal Line definition., Copy the existing definition and create new one.


Add ur customized/Newly defined one.


(4) Define Custom SLA Method.
Navigate to Application Accounting Definition.

Select the Application and find it Copy the Acc method then add ur newly defined Journal line definition.




(5) Finally navigate to acc set manger in GL add this new acc method to ur ledger.

Dear Venkatesh,

You can get the details from GL_JE_LINES table has columns named as REFERENCE_1 onwards, which captures the subledger information be it AP, AR etc ... You can fetch the same from back end. The Reference columns captures data only if you transfer in detail mode.

Dear Venkatesh,

11i does not allow you to change it. You can only run reports or fetch from back end directly.
Please run "Account Analysis Report with subledger detail", this report will show the details of subledgers also.
One can customize this report, as per thier needs

Regards,
Karthikeyan
