Invoice Distribution Statistics in Oracle General Ledger

If you use General Ledger, you can define the units of measure, such as barrels or gross, you use to record statistics on invoice distributions. In General Ledger, you can assign a unit of measure to an account. Payables then lets you enter a statistical quantity for each invoice distribution that has an account defined with a unit of measure.

If you use General Ledger and enter in Payables any statistical quantities for your invoice distributions, Payables transfers this statistical quantity information to the GL_INTERFACE table when you initiate posting in Payables. If you choose to create detail journal entries, Payables transfers the quantity information for each invoice distribution. If you choose to create summary journal entries, Payables transfers this quantity information in summary. You can then report on your statistics in a variety of ways, including the Financial Statement generator. For detailed information see: Defining Statistical Units of Measure.
