Balancing the segment values

Post by amicguys »

HI,

I have a doubt

The vers. is R12

We have four Branches say B,C,D,E in one country for the company "A"

so i defined one leagl entity

And then defined only operating unit rather going for four

And at the bsv level i made the "A" as my parent and the others i made it as child values

And i assigned the balalcing entity for the segment called company so that i can generate the financials reports...

So what i do is, i performs all the transactions in one operating unit.

so while defining the financials options i enter the imp code combinations such as liability a/c and prepayment and etc..
so these are the accounts which will be defaluted to our supllier as well
(Ex: assume that i have defined it as 02.000.2210 (Company-Dept-Laibility A/c)

So know i want to do a transaction for the Company 3 (Balancing segment)

so at the invoice dis tribution level i will be entering it as 03.110.8923(company-finance dept2-furniturea/c)

so when we go validation and creat a/cing it will credit the laibility a/c from suplier site (for which it will be automatically defaulted from fiancial options i.e., 02.000.2210)

So how do we settle this things..

Do we need to go for Automatic offsett method such as balancing and account

so if we go then what will be the final accounting impact.if we go for the same then i will there be the need of intercompany at gl level.

If we wont go for balancing segment then how do we od the settlements.

And how does the same appear in gl

OR

can we do any setup at gl

Such as intercompany rules if so then how can we do the same


If my logic is wrong then kindly tell me so that i can correct myself.

Note: i cannot define all of them as operating units cuz i have more than 120 branches

If go for location segment for all my branches then i cannot generate the financial reports.

Hi amicguys

Your problem can be solved by using the SLA in the payable manager. You can change the liability account to be generated according to cost center which entered in the invoice distribution for example.

You can search on net for this case & I think you will find it.

Thanks
Hisham
