gae90000.gif Define journals (as you can do in General Ledger) rather than using hard-coded categories. These journals must be numbered sequentially to comply with legal requirements.

gae90000.gif Assign sequential numbers to the defined journals across applications

gae90000.gif Create all accounting entries within subledgers, including miscellaneous entries and intraorganizations entries. No adjusting entries are necessary in General Ledger.

gae90000.gif Secure subledger accounting entries. You can either secure accounts individually or secure the procedure to create accounting entries. To secure subledger accounting entries, use control accounts to define accounts. A control account is only accessible from the subledgers. Securing your entries ensures a valid audit trail is on paper. The secured posting makes sure that you are only given access to a range of steps involved in the posting cycle.

gae90000.gif Comply with the granularity level of accounting entries
