The FACTS II reports provide information on Standard General Ledger (SGL) account balances and associated attributes affected by FACTS II requirements.
The FACTS II Trial Balance Report is used by federal agencies to review SGL account balances at the attribute level. Only attributes for accounts reported on FACTS II are captured.
The FACTS II Trial Balance is an RXi report. The Default Attribute set groups the data by treasury symbol, fund, fiscal year, organization, program, and project. This attribute set can be copied in order to customize the layout to suit the reporting needs of the agency. In the Default Attribute set, the fiscal year, organization, program, and project segments were assigned default segment columns. To maintain this level of detail, the agency must create a customized attribute set to map the segment of the Accounting Flexfield to the appropriate column headings.
See: RXi attribute sets, see Oracle Financials RXi Reports Administration Tool, Oracle Financials RXi Reports Administration Tool User’s Guide.
Agencies' financial systems are required to comply with the US SGL at the transaction level for FACTS II reporting in accordance with the Federal Financial Management Improvement Act and section 7(c) of the Office of Management Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-127.
