Guided Demonstration - Create Accounting Setup

Logon: SSCNEWALL/Welcome

Responsibility: General Ledger, SSC Worldwide

This demonstration will show you how to use the Accounting Setup Manager to perform the accounting setup for a newly acquired company in France. You will the create entities, operating units, and the ledgers and reporting currencies needed to meet different reporting requirements.

Scenario

SSC US, a US-based company, currently has operations in both the US and Italy. Here is a graphical representation of how the legal entities and ledgers are currently defined for both the parent company and Italian subsidiary:

SSC US has just acquired a Company in France called <Your initials> SSC France, a non-profit organization. You must set up the accounting for this newly acquired company in France. The following depicts how the parent company would like their French subsidiary set up:

• There is one legal entity and one operating unit.

• The primary ledger represents the corporate representation that uses the same ledger attributes as the parent, except the currency is the local currency in Euros.

• A subledger level reporting currency in US Dollars is assigned to the primary ledger for corporate reporting and consolidation needs.

• To meet statutory reporting requirements for the local French authorities, a subledger level secondary ledger is assigned that uses a different chart of accounts and accounting method.

3. Once you finish creating your structure, you will receive a confirmation message informing you that you can define your accounting options now or later. Choose to define your accounting options now.

Assign Specific Balancing Segment Values (BSV) to your Legal Entity

Assign balancing segment value "101" to your legal entity to easily identify and secure transactions by legal entity and use Advanced Global Intercompany System.

Once you assign balancing segment values to your legal entity, you limit the balancing segment values that can be used for transaction processing and journal entry for this legal entity and its operating units and ledgers.

4. Update the balancing segment values and assign value 101 your legal entity.

Hint: Click Update Balancing Segment Values icon for the Legal Entity.

Default Period Average Rate Type Period Average875

Cumulative Translation Adjustment Account 101.100.35000.0000.000.000.000

Notice the status is now complete for this step.

Complete Reporting Currency

6. Use the following to completely define your primary ledger's reporting currency. The name of the reporting currency is system-generated and named after the primary ledger with the currency of the reporting currency appended to the end of the name.

7. Change the name of the subledger level reporting currency to <Your Initials> France ALC (USD). Name <Your Initials> France ALC (USD)

Short Name <Your Initials> SSC FR ALC (USD)

Default Rate Type Corporate

Retain Transaction Type Yes

8. For the Journal Source and Category Conversion, leave the default to YES for the source and category "Other". This means you want to automatically convert all journals entered in GL to this reporting currency.

Note: By default, the subledger sources are set to No. This is because it is a subledger level reporting currency resulting in Subledger Accounting (SLA) handling the currency conversion to the reporting currency—NOT GL Posting.

9. When finished, select Apply and then Complete mark the step complete and return to Accounting Options page to continue with other steps.

Responsibility: General Ledger, SSC Worldwide

SSC US wants to minimize the overhead of maintaining separate ledgers and would like to take advantage of processing and reporting efficiencies afforded by ledger sets, such as being able to open and close periods for multiple ledgers simultaneously and running reports across multiple ledgers in a single financial statement. SSC US is also a shared service center and performs many accounting functions across its subsidiaries and therefore wants to access multiple ledgers from a single responsibility.

View Ledger Set

(N) Setup > Financials > Ledger Sets

1. Query the ledger set called "SSC All".

Notice the following 5 ledgers that are assigned:

Note: The Secondary Ledgers for Italy and France cannot be included because they use a different chart of accounts.

Guided Demonstration - Enter Journals Using Different Balancing Segment Values (BSVs)

Logon: SSCNEWALL/Welcome

Responsibility: General Ledger, SSC Worldwide

In this exercise, you will test the effects of entering and viewing journals when your data access set provides limited access to ledger data.

Enter a Journal using BSVs with different read and write access

1. Select the responsibility "<Your Initials> US GL Accountant BSV Access". Remember, this responsibility can only read and write to the SSC US ledger, and only read balancing segment value 101 for the French primary ledger and its reporting currency.

2. Open the Enter Journals form.

(N) Journals > Enter.

3. In the Find Journals window, place your cursor in the Ledger field and open the list of values. Notice that both the US ledger (SSC US) and the French ledgers (SSC France and SSC France ALC (USD) are available to allow you to choose any of the ledgers to VIEW journals.

4. Query the Journal Name "<Your Initials> Exercise 3 Rent". (You entered and posted this journal to the French ledger earlier in Exercise 3).

5. Because you have read only access to the French ledger, you can view journals and balances online and in reports.

6. Click New Journal to enter a new journal.

7. Open the Ledger list of values.

8. Notice that only the US ledger, SSC US, is available. That's because it is the only ledger with which you can update balances.

10. You should receive an error message that the Balancing Segment Value is not valid for the ledger.

Even though your data access set provides read and write access to all balancing segment values for the SSC US Ledger, you can only access those values applicable for the ledger. This ledger is associated with two legal entities where the SSC US legal entity has values 001 and 003 assigned and the SSC US LE2 has value 004 assigned. Thus, you can only enter values 001, 003, and 004 when entering transactions and journals to this ledger.

11. Change the journal lines as follows to correctly adjust Sales: Line Account Description Debit (EUR) Credit (EUR)

1 001.100.41000.0000.000.000.000 Revenue 10,000

Guided Demonstration - Define Definition Access Sets and Secure Definitions

Logon: SSCNEWALL/Welcome

Responsibility: General Ledger, SSC Worldwide

You want to prevent other users from modifying or using your FSG Report definition. You will however allow them to view it. Create a definition access set to give read-only access to the FSG report definition and assign it to the General Ledger, SSC France responsibility that is assigned to the SSCFR user and your current user.

Also, to have the full ability to assign definition access set controls, assign the Super User Definition Access Set to your current responsibility, <Your Initials> US GL Accountant BSV Access.

Assign Definition Access Set with View Only Access

1. From the responsibility Your Initials> US GL Accountant BSV Access, open the Definition Access Set window.

(N) Setup > Financials > Definition Access Set > Define

2. Define a Definition Access Set called <Your Initials> View Only Access.

Note: You are only defining a name for your definition access set. You are not securing definitions yet.

3. Navigate to the Definition Access Set Assignments form.

(N) Setup > Financials > Definition Access Set >Assign

Secure Definitions

6. Log out and log in as SSCFR/welcome.

7. Choose the responsibility General Ledger, SSC France.

• Open the Report page (N) Reports > Define > Report and query the FSG report definition you submitted earlier called "Balance Sheet SSC WW PTD" and enable security and immediately click the Assign Access button and notice how the report was automatically assigned with the View privilege.

Note: Some may argue that this is a security breach, because the user could quickly change his privilege from View to Use and Modify. This is a technical limitation because the concurrent program has not been submitted yet. It gets submitted when you save your work. We provide function security on the Assign Access button so if you want to prevent users from changing their privileges, you can hide the button from those responsibilities.

8. Save your work and wait for the Compile Definition Access Set program to complete.

9. Re-query the definition to see that you can only view it now. Also notice the Generate button is disabled because you cannot use or submit this definition.

10. Log out and log back in as your username/password and select the responsibility General Ledger, SSC Worldwide.

11. Query the FSG Report Definition. Notice you have full use, view, and modify privileges even though the Super User Definition Access Set was not assigned to this responsibility (It

Note: You have just secured the report definition, but you have not secured the column set and row set definition. Other users will not be able to modify the report definition, but they can modify the components (the row set, the column set, row order, etc.). You need to secure the individual FSG components if you want to prevent other users from modifying them.

Practice - Enter Values

Overview

In this practice, you will enter the valid values into your value sets. Note: You are not creating combinations, only the lists of individual values that will appear in the LOV of each segment.

Assumptions

Since an account type of Expense is the default, make sure the account type is correct for each account as you tab through the fields. It would be an unpleasant surprise if the cash account was misclassified as Expense and closed to retained earnings at the end of the accounting year.

Note: We will not be using the Control Account feature or the Reconciliation Flag, leave them both set to No for all values.

Practice - View account combinations Created with Dynamic Insertion

Assumptions

• Replace XX with your terminal number or unique number.

• You must have access to an Oracle Application Vision database or comparable training or test instance at your site on which to complete this practice.

• Responsibility = XXGeneral Ledger Super User, XXBOOK

Tasks

1. View account combinations Created with Dynamic Insertion

Note: If dynamic insertion is not enabled, you will have to define your account combinations prior to being able to use them. One option is to temporarily turn dynamic insertion on and load a 0 amount journal entry using ADI with all account combinations you plan to use. Dynamic insertion will create the account combinations for you; you can then turn dynamic insertion off. The journal entry can be deleted if desired.

If you work with Oracle Applications that generate a lot of new account combinations (e.g. Oracle Assets), consider your decision to use (or not use) dynamic insertion carefully.

Also, if you will be using Oracle Projects, dynamic insertion must be turned on. The Auto Accounting feature in Oracle Projects checks to verify that dynamic insertion is on. If it is not, you will not be able to create journal entries from PA.

Practice - Define Cross Validation Rules (Required)

Overview

Cross Validation Rules determine which combinations of valid segment values are invalid, regardless of the user's responsibility. It is a good idea to use combinations of several simple rules rather than a few "all encompassing" rules. Keep in mind that Cross Validation rules are linked to a flexfield structure; security rules are linked to a responsibility. In this practice, you will define cross validation rules.

Example:

Goal: Prevent balance sheet accounts (0000-3999) from being usedwith anything but the balance sheet department (000). Allow 000 to bepaired with 9930 to 9940.

Include

Exclude

Exclude

Exclude 00 - 000 - 4000 - 0000ZZ - 000 - 9929 - ZZZZ

00 - 000 - 0000 - 0000ZZ - ZZZ - ZZZZ - ZZZZ

00 - 000 - 9941 - 0000ZZ - 000 - ZZZZ - ZZZZ

00 - 001 - 0000 - 0000ZZ - ZZZ - 3999 - ZZZZ

You will implement three rules as a test to the system:

Rule Purpose

Commission Rule Prevent the Administration (100) and Finance (150) departments from receiving commission payments (Account 5150)

Balance Sheet Rule Prevent balance sheet account codes from being used with anything but balance sheet departments (and similarly with P&L account codes and departments)

Revenue Rule Allow only sales departments (300 to 3ZZ) to be used with revenue account codes (4000 range)

Assumptions

• Replace XX with your terminal number or unique number.

Define the Balance Sheet Rule

5. Create Rule XXCVR02 for the Balance Sheet Rule. Remember to include a description, error message, identify the segment name, start date, and use the following information.

− Rule = XXCVR02 − Description = Balance sheet accounts and income statement accounts must be used

with appropriate departments − Error Message = XXCVR02 - Balance sheet and income statement accounts must be

used with appropriate departments. − Error Segment Name = Department − From = 31-JAN-2001

Note: You should limit the number of periods you have open in order to improve posting performance. This is particularly useful during implementations when you are uploading balances from a legacy system. Instead of having a year's worth of periods open as you are uploading and posting to each period, open a couple of periods and have a high number of future-enterable periods defined for your ledger.

Note: The number of future-enterable periods can be changed at any time in the Ledger window. After you have uploaded the balances for all the periods, open each period to post the journal, then close older periods.
