Note: Defining a set of books is explained in Oracle General Ledger Reference. After you define your set of books, you're ready to specify this information to Oracle Sales Compensation.

   To specify the set of books on which you want to base your compensation periods:

1. Navigate to the System Parameters window.

By default, choose System Parameters from the Setup menu.

2. Enter a name for your Oracle Sales Compensation instance

3. In the Set of Books field, choose a GL set of books from the list of values.

Oracle Sales Compensation obtains this list of values from all sets of books you have defined for the installed GL application.

Calendar: The name of the calendar associated with this set of GL books. This information can only be viewed.

Period Type: The period type associated with this set of GL books. This information can only be viewed.

Currency: The functional currency associated with this set of GL books. Oracle Sales Compensation allows you to pay salespeople in the currency of their choice, known as the salesrep currency; it makes calculations in the selected functional currency, and then displays the amounts in the salesperson's subledger in the salesrep currency.

The currency in which transactions are done is called the transaction currency; Oracle Sales Compensation converts the transaction or source currency to the functional currency after it collects the transaction from Oracle Receivables or another source. For more information on multicurrency rules, see the Oracle General Ledger Reference Manual.
