B Batch Input Setup

This appendix contains these topics:

To successfully upload batch journal entries from outside sources such as PC data entry, third party or customer systems, or electronic data interfaces (EDI) to the Journal Entry Batch Input table (F0911Z1), you must enter data into certain fields.

Table 1 in this appendix lists the fields required by the Batch Input Journal Entry Processing program (P09110Z) for uploading. Tables 2 and 3 list optional fields that may be useful to you in organizing the data, but are not required by the program. Table 4 lists fields that the system ignores during the upload process. The functional server does not pass ignored fields to the JD Edwards World fields.

Each field in tables 1-3 is shown as required, conditional, or optional, as follows:

  • R = Required entry. You must enter data into this field to successfully upload the transactions to the F0911Z1 table.

  • C = Conditional entry. Under certain conditions, you must enter data into this field to successfully upload the transactions to the F0911Z1 table. The conditions are listed in the table under Explanation.

  • O = Optional entry. You can enter data in this field.

Other information in the tables include the following:

  • Value. The valid input value is edited. If no value is listed, you can enter any value that meets the field's alpha/numeric specifications.

If the UDC list shows DD as the value, the system uses valid values from the data dictionary specifications for the data item. The system may validate data dictionary specifications against user defined codes, allowed values, or upper/lower allowed values.

If a table or user defined code (xx/xx) is listed in the UDC list, the system validates the value you enter against that table or user defined code.

  • Default. The default value the system assigns if you leave the field blank. If no default is listed, the system uses the initialization value for the data item, with blanks for alpha fields and zeros for numeric fields. If DD is listed, the system uses the default value for the data item from the data dictionary. You can revise some of the defaults through the functional server processing options (XT0911Z1).

  • Formats. Julian date. The JD Edwards World Julian date format is CYYDDD, where C is the century (1900=0, 2000=1), YY is the year, and DDD is the day of the year.

    • Numeric amounts. The data dictionary shows amounts with a 0 data table decimals. The data item size includes the decimal values. For example, if the display decimals = 2, the table keeps 5.50 amount as 550. If display decimals = 0, the table keeps a 1000 amount as 1000.

    • Multi-currency. If you are working in a multi-currency environment, the system uses the company or account display decimals for ledger type AA (domestic), and the transaction currency code for ledger type CA (foreign).

Other special format considerations appear under Explanation for the specific field. If no format is listed, use the data dictionary specifications for the data item to enter the field.

B.1 Table 1 - Required or Conditionally Required Fields

The Batch Input Journal Entries program (P09110Z) requires the fields in this table for adding or deleting transactions.

As of release A7.1, all programs and tables use Julian dates instead of Gregorian dates (D/M/Y). You can continue to use the Gregorian date format in the G/L date field (DGM, DGD, DGY). If you decide to use Julian dates, you only need to load DGJ.

Field Description R C O Explanation Value Default
AA Amount R Required to enter amounts in domestic mode (CRRM=D) Calculated from ACR if working in multi-currency and foreign mode.  
ACR Foreign Amount R Required to enter amounts in foreign mode (CRRM=F) Calculated from AA if working in multi-currency and domestic mode.  
ANI Account number R The system validates the account number, the posting edit code, and the business unit through the F0901 table. F0901 If you enter AN8, the default is F0101 (revenue or expense accounts.)
DCT Document Type R Required to delete a transaction (EDTC=D) F0005 00/DT JE
DGJ or DG# DGM DGD DGY G/L Date R Required to add a transaction (EDTC=A or blank) Valid date  
DOC Document Number C Required to delete a transaction (EDTC=D). If you leave this field blank when you add a transaction, the system uses Next Numbers to assign a document number. If you enter a document number, it must not already exist for an add. F0911 Document For an add, this is assigned by Next Numbers.
EDTC Transaction action R Required to delete a transaction (EDTC=D). Enter only one line to indicate the JD Edwards World document and document type to be deleted. A = Add

D = Delete

A
EDTN Transaction number R The user transaction, voucher number, or sequential number for batch processing. This field, or this field in combination with EDUS and EDBT, should contain unique identification for a specific A/R voucher transaction.    
EXA Explanation R Required to add a transaction (EDTC=A or blank).    
ICU Batch number R This field must be left blank. The system assigns the number through the Batch Edit/Update program. Each change in the EDBT field drives the creation of a new batch number. Assigned by Next Numbers.  
MCU Business unit C Required if business unit security is used F0006 Derived from ANI

B.2 Table 2 - Optional Control Fields

The fields in this table may be useful in processing and organizing batch data.

Field Description R C O Explanation Value Default
CRCD Currency Code O If multi-currency is turned on, the system edits this field. You can use this field to control the currency calculations if you are working in a multi-currency environment. F0013  
CRR Exchange rate O If multi-currency is turned on, the system edits this field. You can use this field to control the currency calculations if you are working in a multi-currency environment. F0015 for CRCD if CRRM=F or D. Calculated from AA and ACR if CRRM=3 for both AA and ACR.  
CRRM Mode of entry O If multi-currency is turned on, the system edits this field. You can use this field to control the currency calculations if you are working in a multi-currency environment. D-domestic

F-foreign

3-pre-calculated

DD
EDBT User defined batch number O This field, in combination with EDTN and EDUS, uniquely identifies a specific journal entry. This field also acts as a level break and drives the assignment of a JD Edwards World batch number each time this value changes.    
EDUS User ID O User defined ID number. This field, in combination with EDTN and EDBT, uniquely identifies a specific journal entry. PC processing uses this field as the PC terminal ID number.

V A/P journal entries

I A/R journal entries

98/IT G
KCO Document company O This field in combination with DOC and DCT uniquely identifies an original document.    

B.3 Table 3 - Additional Fields
