Kishore,

My understanding is, you are planning to create a new Journal Source for Conversion.

If so, while populating Converted GL Balances from legacy system, ensure to you use this new Journal Source in GL_INTERFACE.

1. In GL_INTERFACE table, use column USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME.

2. While populating GL_INTERFACE table, you would need to populate
Following columns (not Null).

STATUS NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (50)
SET_OF_BOOKS_ID NOT NULL NUMBER (15)
USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (25)
USER_JE_CATEGORY_
NAME
NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (25)
ACCOUNTING_DATE NOT NULL DATE
AVERAGE_JOURNAL_FLAG VARCHAR2 (1)
CURRENCY_CODE NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (15)
DATE_CREATED NOT NULL DATE
CREATED_BY NOT NULL NUMBER (15)
ACTUAL_FLAG NOT NULL VARCHAR2 (1)

3. Also you would need to populate "Assigning Values for Additional Required and Conditionally Required Columns" mentioned in GL User Guide (page 1-102)

4. Apart from this you would need to populate either Acct Code Combination ID / Individual segment values.

5. Also ensure to populate GROUP_ID column for each run (this is a nonmandatory Column, but recommended) Use sequence GL_INTERFACE_CONTROL_S for populating this column.
