6 Setting Up for Exporting Financial Information In China

This chapter contains the following topics:

6.1 Understanding the Standards to Ensure Correctness of Accounting Data

The China National Audit Office (CNAO) and Standardization Administration of China jointly issued the standard Information Technology – Data Interface of Accounting Software to enable better data interchange between the enterprises in China and the government, and to ensure completeness and correctness of accounting data.

As per the standard, you need to export the financial information such as fiscal period end, year-end reports, journals, and transactions, into an XML, TXT or PDF file and send it to CNAO for an audit. In order to do this, you need to first set up the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system for China.

6.2 Setting Up the XML Output File Structure of the CNAO Reports

This section provides an overview of the output file structure required for the CNAO reports and discusses how to set up the structure of the XML output files of the CNAO reports.

6.2.1 Understanding the Output File Structure of the CNAO Reports

The CNAO requires the reports to be in a specific XML format. In order to make the report generation dynamic and to enable the you to create the XML report as and when required, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system enables you to enter the elements of the report in the Dynamic XML Output Generator program (P75CDXM). In this application, you enter the report name as the parent element and the field names as the child elements. You also specify the values that you wish to assign to the parent and child elements.

When you run the CNAO reports, the system uses the elements and values that you have defined and generates the output XML file. This application enables you to print the XML files in the format as required by the CNAO.

Enter the mode of your natural account.

In mode 1, the natural account is defined as the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne object + subsidiary. For example, if the object is 1110 and the subsidiary is 0101, the natural account number will be 11100101.

In mode 2, the accounts are separate from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne accounts and are stored as natural account numbers.

6.4 Generating the Natural Account Information

This section provides an overview of how to generate the natural account information and discusses how to:

  • Set processing options for the E1 Account to Natural Account Setup program (R75C0903).

  • Generate the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne account numbers as natural account numbers.

6.4.1 Understanding the Generation of the Natural Account Information

The China chart of accounts is divided into two modes. In mode 1, you use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne chart of accounts which consists of the object and the subsidiary. However, as you need the reports in the natural account number format in China, you use the E1 Account to Natural Account Setup report (R75C0903) to generate the chart of accounts information in the natural account number format.

In mode 2, the accounts are separate from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne accounts and are stored as natural account numbers. Therefore, you do not need to generate the report separately here.

The system calculates the account level for both modes.

6.4.2 Setting Processing Options for E1 Account to Natural Account Setup (R75C0903)

Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.

You use the E1 Account to Natural Account Setup program (R75C0903) to generate the account numbers stored in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system as natural account numbers, if you are a mode 1 customer.

The natural account information is stored in the Account Master table (F0901), the Account master - Tag file - China Localization table (F75C091) and the China – Chart of Accounts Set Up table (F75C007).

If you are using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne chart of accounts, the system generates the values in some of the fields of the China Chart of Accounts program such as the natural account number, level, and description. You will need to enter the values for the other fields.

If you are using the natural account numbers, you will need to enter the values for all the fields of the China Chart of Accounts program.
