TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS

1. HOW DOES CREATE ACCOUNTING WORK?

1.1 Overview of CreateAccounting Program

The Create Accounting program processes eligible accounting events to create subledger journal entries. To create the subledger journal entries, theCreate Accounting program applies application accounting definitions that are created in the Accounting Methods Builder (AMB).

The Create Accounting program:

Validates and creates subledger journal entriesGenerates the Subledger Accounting Program Report, which documents the results of the Create Accounting program.

1.2 Creating AccountingEntries in Payables

You can create accounting entries for Payables accounting events in two ways:

Submit the Create Accounting program.Create online accounting entries for a single transaction or batch.

In both cases, you can view the generated accounting entries in the following locations:

View Accounting and View Accounting Entries windows.Subledger Accounting Program Report. This report is automatically generated when you create accounting entries.

1.3 Submitting the CreateAccounting Program Use the Create Accounting program to create accounting entries for multiple transactions. You can also use this program to generate detailed error reports

if you could not successfully create accounting entries from the transaction windows.

Submit the Create Accounting program in Draft mode, if you want to view the accounting results before you create the final accounting, or Final mode.

1.4 Creating AccountingEntries from TransactionWindows

From a transaction window, you can create accounting entries for a selected invoice, payment, invoice batch, or payment batch. For a single invoice orpayment, the accounting completes online. For batches, the accounting process is submitted as a request, and you can view its completion status in theRequests window.

To create accounting entries for an invoice, payment, or payment batch:

1. Query and select the invoice, payment, or payment batch in the Invoices, Payments, or Payment Batches window. Choose the Actionsbutton.

2. The actions window for the transaction opens. Choose the Create Accounting check box.

Choose one of the following options:

DraftFinalFinal and Post

3. Choose OK.

To create accounting entries for an invoice batch:

1. In the Invoice Batches window, query the invoice batch.

1. In the Invoice Batches window, query the invoice batch.

2. Choose the Create Accounting button.

1.5 Adjusting AccountingEntries

Accounting entries are automatically generated for transactions based on your accounting setup in Oracle Subledger Accounting and Oracle GeneralLedger.You can only adjust accounting entries in Payables if you ran the Create Accounting program in Draft mode. To adjust accounting entries, adjust the transaction details and rerun the Create Accounting program.

1.6 Viewing AccountingEntries You can use Oracle Subledger Accounting to view information on accounting events, journal entries, and journal entry lines.

You can perform the following subledger accounting inquiries:

View information about an accounting event or journal entry error.View detailed information about the subledger journal entry headers for an accounting event.Compare subledger journal entry information for any two journal entriesView subledger journal entry lines for multiple documents or transactionsView subledger journal entries in a t­account formatView transactions for an accounting event or journal entry

You can use the following reports to review accounting information:

Journal Entries reportAccount Analysis reportThird Party Balances reportMultiperiod Accounting reportsSubledger Period Close Exceptions reportsOpen Account Balances Listing

1.7 Oracle SubledgerAccounting Program Report

The Subledger Accounting Program Report is generated by the Create Accounting program. It lists the following:

Successful events and the subledger journal entries created for those eventsErrors for failed events

Users can run the report in summary or detail mode which are described as follows:

Summary mode provides a summary of events processed and detailed information about their errors.Detail mode provides details of subledger journal entries generated from the processing of completed events and a detailed error report.

1.8 The Create Accounting Program Parameters

The Create Accounting program creates and transfers journal entries. In general, the parameters described in the table below determine which accounting events areprocessed.

12/8/2014 Knowledge

https://support.oracle.com/cloud/faces/DocumentDisplay?_afrLoop=174761004160205&_afrWindowMode=0&id=1375017.1&parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=… 6/23

Parameter DescriptionLedger Required. Limits accounting events selected for processing to those of a particular ledger.

Subledger Accounting lists ledgers that have events that the responsibility can access due to transaction­based security. If the profile option SLA: Enable Data Access Security in Subledgers is set to Yes, only those ledgers that are included in General Ledger Access Sets assigned to theresponsibility appear in the list of values.

If the application is a valuation method application as defined in the AMB, then both primary and secondary ledgers within the access sets are displayed. If the application is not a valuation method application, then only primary ledgers are displayed.

Process Category Optional. Restricts the events selected for accounting to a particular process category.

The Create Accounting program selects events with event types falling into the event classes assigned to the process category.Only process categories established by development teams as part of the seed data are included in the list of values.

End Date Required. End date for the Create Accounting program; processes only those events with event dates on or before the end dateMode Required. Determines whether the subledger journal entries are created in Draft or Final mode.

If Draft mode is selected, then the Transfer to GL, Post in General Ledger, and General Ledger Batch Name fields are disabled. Draft entries cannot be transferred toGeneral Ledger.

Errors Only Required. Limits the creation of accounting to those events for which accounting has previously failed.If Yes is selected, the Create Accounting program processes all events with a status of Error.

Report Required. Determines whether to generate a report showing the results of the Subledger Accounting program in summary or detail format.Transfer to GeneralLedger

Required if Mode is set to Final. Determines whether to transfer the subledger journal entries to General Ledger.Journal import is not launched if the profile option SLA: Disable Journal Import is set to Yes.

Post in GeneralLedger

Required if Mode is set to Final or Create Accounting is set to No. Determines whether to post subledger journal entries in General Ledger.

If there is a primary ledger with secondary ledgers attached to it and the application is a nonvaluation method application, the journal entries of the secondary ledgers areautomatically posted. This is based on the application accounting definition that the user sets up.

If the application is a valuation method application, then there is a different event for that secondary ledger and the accounting is not created in the same run for bothledgers.

General Ledger BatchName

Optional. User­entered batch name that appears on the transferred General Ledger subledger journal entries. Transfer to GL option must be set to Yes.

Include UserTransaction Identifiers

Required. Controls whether the report displays user identifiers' names and values.

2. HOW DOES THE TRANSFER JOURNAL ENTRIES TO GL WORK?

2.1 Overview ofTransfer JournalEntries to GL Program

The Transfer Journal Entries to GL program enables you to transfer any eligible journal entries to General Ledger, including those from previous batch runs thathave not yet been transferred to General Ledger.If you already created accounting in Final Mode but have not transferred them over to GL, and you run the Create Accounting program with Transfer to GL option,then the application does not pick up events that are already created in the final mode. You run the Transfer Journal Entries to General Ledger program to do that.

After you create accounting entries, transfer those entries to General Ledger. You can transfer accounting entries in the following ways:

If you create accounting entries from the transaction window, select the Create and Post option. This automatically creates accounting entries, transfersthe entries to General Ledger, and posts them.

If you run the Create Accounting program, set the Transfer to General Ledger parameter to Yes. This creates the accounting entries and transfers them tothe General Ledger. If you selected Yes for the option to Post the entries, the entries are transferred and posted. Otherwise, after the entries aretransferred to General Ledger, you can review and post them manually.

Run the Transfer Journal Entries to General Ledger program. This program transfers journal entries from Oracle Subledger Accounting to the GeneralLedger.

You can then post these journal entry batches, headers, and lines within General Ledger to update your General Ledger account balances.

If you do not use General Ledger, you can use the data in the GL_INTERFACE to create and post journal entries in your general ledger.You can view the accounting entries in Payables. Also, after you post journal entries in Oracle General Ledger, you can drill down to the related accountingentries or transactions in Payables.

2.2 Transfer JournalEntries to GL Program

The Transfer Journal Entries to GL program consists of a subset of parameters used in the Create Accounting program as listed below:

LedgerProcess CategoryEnd DatePost in General LedgerGeneral Ledger Batch Name

2.3 Transfer JournalEntries to GL Report

The Transfer to Journal Entries to GL Report is generated by the Transfer Journal Entries to GL program and lists the following:

Transfer to GL SummaryGeneral Errors

2.4 Posting in OracleGeneral Ledger

After you submit Journal Import, you can post journal entries in Oracle General Ledger. You can post journal entries in Summary or Detail.

3. WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO CLOSE THE PERIOD IN PAYABLES?

You close a Payables period after you have completed accounting for transactions for the period and you have transferred the accounting entries to general ledger.You cannot close a period in Payables if any of the following conditions exist:

Outstanding payment batches. Confirm or cancel all incomplete payment batches. Future dated payments for which the Maturity Date is within the period but that still have a status of Issued.Submit the Update Matured Future Payment Status Program.Unaccounted transactions. Submit the Create Accounting program to account for transactions, or submit the Unaccounted Transaction Sweep to move anyremainingunaccounted transactions from one period to another.Accounted transactions that have not been transferred to general ledger. Transferaccounting entries to General Ledger.

To complete the close process in Payables:

Period Close Step Period Close Step Description

3.1 Invoices Validate all invoices.

3.2 Payment Batches Confirm or cancel all incomplete payment batches.

3.3 Future DatedPayments

If you use future dated payments, submit the Update Matured Future Dated Payment Status Program. This will update the status of matured future dated payments to Negotiable so you can account for them.

3.4 Transactions Resolve all unaccounted transactions.

Submit the Create Accounting program to account for all unaccounted transactions. Review the Unaccounted Transactions Report. Review any unaccounted transactions and correct dataas necessary. Then resubmit the Create Accounting program to account for transactions you corrected. Or move any unresolved accounting transaction exceptions to another period (optional). Submit the Unaccounted Transactions Sweep Program

3.5 Transfer Transfer invoices and payments to the General Ledger and resolve any problems you see on the outputreport.

3.6 Closing In the Control Payables Periods window, close the period in Payables.

3.7 Reconciliation Reconcile Payables activity for the period. You will need the following reports:

3.8 Purchasing If you use Oracle Purchasing, accrue uninvoiced receipts

3.9 Assets If you use Oracle Assets, run the Mass Additions Create Program transfer capital invoice line distributions from Oracle Payables to Oracle Assets

3.10 Reconcile to GL Post journal entries to the general ledger and reconcile the trial balance to the General Ledger.

Back to Top

4. HOW TO PROCESS THE PAYABLES RECONCILIATION?

4.1 Reconciling PayablesActivity

Use the following reports to reconcile your posted invoices and payments to your Accounts Payable Trial Balance to ensure that your Trial Balanceaccurately reflects your accounts payable liability:

Posted Invoice RegisterPosted Payment RegisterAccounts Payable Trial Balance (last period and current period)

Note: Before you run your reports, transfer the journal entries to General Ledger for all transactions in the period that you are reconciling.

Note: When reviewing your Accounts Payable Trial Balance report, you may notice that the remaining amount for a given invoice is less than youexpect or even negative. This may be caused by recording invoice payments in a GL period that precedes the GL period used to record some or all of your invoice distributions.

For example: You enter an invoice with one distribution of $200 that uses a GL date of 04­JAN­2011. You pay the full invoice, and thepayment date is 20­DEC­2010. If you submit the Accounts Payable Trial Balance report as of 31­DEC­2010, then the invoice will correctlyshow an amount remaining of <­$200>.

In the reports parameter, if you do not enter an as of date, then the report shows all paid and unpaid invoices from the start date.

Payables allows the payment date to precede the invoice GL date to support certain accounting methods (e.g. recording prepaid items).

4.2 Reconciling AccountsPayable Trial Balance for agiven period

Add the current period's posted invoices (total invoice amount from the Posted Invoice Register) and subtract the current period's posted payments(total cash plus discounts taken from the Posted Payments Register) from the prior period's Accounts Payable Trial Balance.This amount should equal the balance for the current period's Accounts Payable Trial Balance.

For example, you are closing your accounting period for April and you have just posted your final invoice and payment batches to your general ledgersystem.To reconcile your accounts payable activity for April, make the following calculation:

March Accounts Payable Trial Balance

+ April Posted Invoice Register

­ April Posted Payment Register

= April Accounts Payable Trial Balance

4.3 Reconciling PayablesActivity to General Ledger

Use the Accounts Payable Trial Balance report to reconcile your accounts payable liability in your general ledger. Compare the Accounts Payable Trial Balance to the accounts payable balance in your general ledger system for a given period.

Because the Trial Balance presents the outstanding accounts payable liability information, it is only valid for an accrual ledger.

Unaccounted InvoicesUnaccounted Payments

To submit the Period Close Exceptions Report:

1. In the Control Payables Periods window if you try to close a period that has exceptions, the period status cannot be changed. Payables displays a message telling you this, and enables the Exceptions button.

2. Choose the Exceptions button in the Control Payables Periods window.Payables opens a message window. From the window you can choose the following buttons:

Review Sweep (unaccounted transactions to the next period)

3. Choose the Review button to submit the report. You can access the report output in the Requests window.

6.2 PostedInvoice Register

Use the Posted Invoice Register to review accounting lines for invoices that have been transferred and posted to your generalledger. Because it presents amounts that havebeen charged to liability accounts, this report is valid only for an accrual ledger.

The Posted Invoice Register is primarily a reconciliation tool. Use this report along with the Posted Payment Register and theAccounts Payable Trial Balance Report to reconcile balances between Payables and your general ledger.

To make their output easier to read, each of these reports can be generated for a single liability account. For example, if you are using Automatic Offsets and the liability for your invoices is allocated across multiple balancingsegments, then you can use the Liability Account parameter to limit your reports to a single balancing organization.

You can generate the report in summary or in detail. When generated in detail, the report displays invoices charged to liabilityaccounts and the accounting informationthat has been transferred to the general ledger. Also included is the supplier and amount information for each invoice listed.Payables displays the total invoice amountin the invoice currency, and the transferred distribution amount in both the invoice currency and accounted currency for easierreconciliation with your general ledger.

Note: The posted distribution amount only includes distribution lines that have been transferred to general ledger.

When generated in summary, the report lists totals for each liability account and does not include any invoice detail.The report always sorts first by liability account. If the report is submitted in detail, it then sorts in the following order:

The report sorts using the Order By parameter, either Journal Entry Batch or Entered Currency. The default value isEntered Currency, and you can change theparameter value only if the report includes journal entry batch names (the Include Journal Entry Batch parameter isYes)The report then sorts by supplier name, invoice number, and invoice date.

6.3 PostedPaymentRegister

Use the Posted Payment Register to review accounting lines for payments that have been transferred and posted to generalledger. Because it presents amounts that havebeen charged to liability accounts, this report is valid only for an accrual ledger. You can submit the Posted Payment Registerfor one payment journal entry batch or allpayment journal entry batches.

The Posted Payment Register is primarily a reconciliation tool. Use this report along with the Posted Invoice Register and theAccounts Payable Trial Balance Report toreconcile balances between Payables and your general ledger. To make the output easier to read, each of these reports canbe generated for a single liability account.

For example, if you are using Automatic Offsets and the liability for your invoices is allocated across multiple balancingsegments, then you can use the Liability Accountparameter to limit your reports to a single balancing organization.

You can generate the report in summary or in detail. When generated in detail, the report displays payments that relieveliability accounts and that have had their accounting information transferred to the general ledger. Also included is the supplierand amount information for each payment listed. Payables displays the payment amount in the entered currency and the liability amount relieved in the accounted currency. In detail mode, the report also displays the payment document and disbursement type for each batch of payments. It providesa report total and subtotals for each payment document and bank account.

When generated in summary, the report lists totals for each liability account and does not include any payment detail.The report always sorts first by liability account. If the report is submitted in detail, it then sorts in the following order

The report sorts using the Order By parameter, either Journal Entry Batch or Bank Account. The default value is BankAccount, and you can change the parametervalue to Journal Entry Batch only if the report includes journal entry batch names (the Include Journal Entry Batchparameter is Yes).The report then sorts by payment number, payment date, and supplier name.

6.4 UnaccountedTransactionsReport

Use this report to identify and review all unaccounted invoice and payment transactions and see the reason that Payablescannot account for a transaction.Payables sorts the report by transaction type (invoice or payment), exception, supplier,transaction currency, and transactionnumber.

Run this report after you create accounting entries. The report will then show only transactions that had problems thatprevented accounting. You can then correct theproblems and resubmit the accounting process. Note that this report does not include invoices that have no distributions.

Prerequisites

(Recommended) Validate invoices to reduce the number of unvalidated invoices on the report.(Recommended) If you use bills payable (future dated payments), submit the Update Matured Future Payment StatusProgram to update the status of any futuredated payments with a maturity date on or before today's date.(Recommended) Create accounting entries.

Exception. The report displays one or more of the following exception conditions for invoices and/or payments:

6.5 AccountsPayable TrialBalance Report

Use the Accounts Payable Trial Balance Report to verify that total accounts payable liabilities in Payables equal those in thegeneral ledger.

To reconcile these balances you can compare the cumulative total liability provided by this report with the total liabilityprovided by your general ledger.

The Accounts Payable Trial Balance report is a Payables­specific version of the Open Account Balances Listing report. By running this report from Payables, you can run this report for a specific operating unit. The Open Account Balances Listing identifies General Ledger accounts with outstanding balances and displays the subledgertransactions that contribute to that balance. Users can create their own layout and publish their reports using Oracle XML Publisher.

For more details about the Trial Balance report please review Doc ID 1372288.1 ­ R12: Master Troubleshooting Guide for theAccounts Payable Trial Balance report

Around 60% of the data corruption issues been resolved with available GDF patches.

Study about GDF with the document: What is a Generic Datafix Patch (GDF) and what GDFs are available for Payables? (Doc ID 874903.1)

How to use GDF ?

1. Review and run the script from Doc ID 1360390.1 ­ R12: Diagnostic Script to Validate Data Related to Invoice and Payment Transactions The script will identify when available GDF's are needed: for Accounting, Invoices and Payments issues. Or for Supplier issues.

2. You can run this script for specific invoice, Payment or supplier or for all transactions within a date range.

3. You may quickly register the script as a concurrent program so that you can schedule it as part of your regular maintenance tasks. For more details please review Doc ID 1361255.1 ­ How to Register the AP Data Validation Script as a Concurrent Program.

4. NEW !! To identify upgraded data issues please run Doc ID 1460241.1 ­ R12: Upgrade GDF Diagnostic to Validate Data Related to Invoices, Payments, Accounting andSuppliers

5. Review the output reports and submit the GDF's scripts identified by the diagnostics. Review the GDFs patches ReadMe files.

6. Every GDF delivers 2 scripts

ap_xxxxxxxxxxxx_sel.sql ­ The Select script is used to find and report the problem data. The script create a temporary table with the affected transactions and create a report which shows affected transactions.

ap_xxxxxxxxxxxx_fix.sql ­ The Fix script used to fix the problem data.

7. Check the Select script report to identify and review the affected transactions.

8. Update process_flag in the temporary table to 'N' for transactions that should not be operated on.

9. If the identified events have to be corrected, then execute the Fix script.

10. Check the results.

11. Apply the RCA patch to prevent issue in future.

9. SUBLEDGER ACCOUNTING SETUP IN PAYABLES

You can optionally define your own accounting rules in Subledger Accounting to create accounting that meets your business requirements. In Subledger Accounting, you use the Accounting Methods Builder (AMB) to define the way subledger transactions are accounted. To do this, you create and modifysubledger journal line setups and application accounting definitions. These definitions define the journal entries that enable an organization to meet specific fiscal, regulatory, and analytical requirements.These definitions are then grouped into subledger accounting methods and assigned collectively to a ledger.

Accounting Methods Builder (AMB) Overview

The AMB enables you to create and modify subledger journal line setups and application accounting definitions. These definitions define the journal entries that enable anorganization to meet specific fiscal, regulatory, and analytical requirements.These definitions are then grouped into subledger accounting methods and assigned collectively to a ledger.By using the AMB, you can define the way subledger transactions are accounted.

The different elements of a subledger journal and their relationships to the AMB are displayed in the diagram below and explained in the subsequent text.

10. THE PREDEFINED SETUP ELEMENTS FOR ORACLE SUBLEDGER ACCOUNTING

Oracle Payables provides predefined data for Oracle Subledger Accounting that you can use to integrate the two applications. When you run the Create Accounting program, the program uses the predefined data to determine how to create the accounting. Payables predefines setup for Subledger Accounting so that the Create Accounting program accepts the default accounting information from AutoAccounting withoutchange. Subledger Accounting transfers the final accounting to Oracle General Ledger.

Subledger Accounting transfers the final accounting to Oracle General Ledger.

You can optionally define your own subledger accounting rules to overwrite the default accounts from the accounting events.

Note: You must use an Oracle Payables responsibility to query predefined data that is associated with the Oracle Payables application.
