Running the Repost Account Ledger Program

This chapter provides an overview of the Repost Account Ledger program and discusses how to repost the account ledger.

Understanding the Repost Accounting Ledger Program

After you review and correct the postconversion integrity reports, you must repost the Account Ledger for all companies, regardless of whether you converted their base currency. You must do this to ensure that the F0911 and F0902 tables for all companies are in balance after the base currency conversion. Reposting the Account Ledger enables you to identify and correct any differences, thereby maintaining the integrity between the F0911 and F0902 tables.

Some base currency conversion programs create minor rounding differences between the transaction amounts and balance amounts that the system converted.

The Repost Account Ledger program (R099102) does the following:

• In proof mode, the program identifies all accounts that should be adjusted due to minor rounding differences between transaction amounts in the F0911 table and balance amounts in the F0902 table.

  Most company auditors want to keep an audit record of the rounding differences that the report identifies.

• In final mode, the program updates the F0902 table with the posted amounts from the F0911 table.

  This program enters numbers in the F0902 table, based on the detailed transactions in the F0911 table.

Reposting the Account Ledger updates or creates new F0902 records for all existing F0911 records and, therefore, can take a long time to process. Typically, reposting updates the F0902 records; however, if the records contain no values in the CRCD and CRCX fields or an account has a post edit code, reposting creates new F0902 records.

Note. Run the Repost Account Ledger program and complete all remaining tasks in this guide in the test environment first, and then correct any data issues in both the test and production environments. Later, when you are satisfied with the results of the conversion in the test environment, complete all of the tasks again in the production environment and go live.

Prerequisites

Before you complete the task in this chapter:

• Review and correct all postconversion integrity reports.

• Run the Annual Close program (R098201) for all companies before reposting the account ledger if you run the base currency conversion at the end of their fiscal year.

  Depending on the records that were purged before the conversion, the repost might produce unexpected results unless you run the Annual Close program before you repost the account ledger.
