This chapter contains the following topics:
Correspondence is the relationship between accounts used to process certain types of transactions. The Russian government defines rules for the accounts to which transactions can be credited and debited. For example, if you debit an account for an asset under construction, you can credit only an account for materials, stock, accounts payable, future period expenses, or other payables. The rules for correspondence also specify the naming conventions for the accounts. For example, accounts used for fixed asset transactions must begin with the characters 01.
When you generate reports to meet legal requirements, you can produce the reports only from accounts that are enabled under the rules of correspondence. These reports include the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow reports.
To work with correspondence of accounts, you:
Run the General Ledger Post program (R09801).
Run the Correspondence Transaction Generation program (R74R9801) to write detailed correspondence information to the Correspondence Rules table (F74R9011).
Use the Correspondence Batch Revision program (P74R0011) to create batch headers for correspondence batches and change batch statuses.
Run the Post Correspondence program (R74R9002) to post correspondence transactions to the Correspondence Balance table (F74R9002).
Use the Correspondence Maintenance Application program (P74R9011) to modify or add correspondence records in the F74R9011 table, as necessary.
Run the Repost Correspondence program (R74R9003) to post the changes you make to posted records in table F74R9011.
Before you work with correspondence of accounts, you must:
Verify that the accounts, methods, and rules that you need to report on correspondence accounts are set up.
Verify that the Zero Amounts processing options for the version of the Journal Entry MBF Processing Options that is associated with voucher and invoice entry programs is set up to allow zero amounts.
This section provides an overview of the Correspondence Transaction Generation program and discusses how to:
Generate correspondence records.
Set processing options for Correspondence Transaction Generation (R74R9801).
When you run the Correspondence Transaction Generation program, the system reads records for posted batches in the Account Ledger table (F0911) and generates transaction records in the F74R9011 table. The transaction records in the F74R9011 table relate debits with credits.
When you run the program in final mode, the system writes lines that are processed without error to the F74R9011 table, and assigns G to the post status and GE to the correspondence batch header status. If there are errors for any lines when you run the program in final mode, the system assigns E (error) as the post status and writes EG (error generated) for the status of the correspondence batch header, and sends a message to the work center. Errors exist when:
No valid rule exists in the correspondence rules setup for the account relation.
The amounts do not balance.
The sum of the correspondence generated amounts for an account is not equal to the account amount in the F0911 table for that journal entry.
You run the Generate Correspondence program after you run the General Ledger Post program, and before you run the Post Correspondence program.
Select Correspondence (G74R09COR), Correspondence Transaction Generation.
Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.
Specify whether the system runs the program in proof or final mode. When you run the program in proof mode, the system generates a report and does not update records. When you run the program in final mode, the system generates a report and updates the F74R9011 table.
Specify the account type setup for correspondence accounts. The value that you enter must exist in the Account Type (74R/AT) UDC table.
Specify the ledger types that the system uses to select records to process. You can enter up to three ledger types. The values that you enter must exist in the Ledger Types (09/LT) UDC table.
Enter 1 to print only the lines with errors on the report. Leave this processing option blank to print all lines on the report.
Specify the tolerance margin allowed for differences between the debit amount and the credit amount when the journal entries use correspondence method 01 or correspondence method 02.
This section provides an overview of correspondence records and discusses how to:
Set processing options for Correspondence Maintenance Application (P74R9011).
Review and modify correspondence account transactions.
The Correspondence Maintenance Application program enables you to:
Manually redistribute amount for transactions with a batch header status that is not equal to P (posted).
Delete lines for transactions with a batch header status that is not equal to P (posted).
Modify lines for transactions with a batch header status that is not equal to P (posted).
Add correspondence transactions to the F74R9011 table.
The Correspondence Batch Revision program enables you to:
Create correspondence batch headers.
Review or change the status.
Run the Correspondence Transaction Generation program.
Run the Post Correspondence program.

Set processing options for Post Correspondence
Balances for correspondences accounts must exist in the F74R9002 table before you can generate the Cash Flow report. You run the Post Correspondence program to populate the F74R9002 table after you run the Correspondence Transaction Generation program to generate records.

Selects all correspondence transactions with a status of G and a correspondence batch header status of GE.
Updates the F74R9002 table, if run in final mode.
Updates the posted code for each correspondence transaction to P in the F74R9011 table.

Specify whether the system verifies if a record for the batch exists in the F74R9011 table. Enter 1 to validate the entries. The system uses this processing option when you run the Repost Correspondence program.
This section provides an overview of the Repost Correspondence program and discusses how to:
Reposting correspondence records.
Set processing options for Repost Correspondence (R74R9003).
