13.2 Setting Up Accounts as Active, Passive, or Bifunctional

Normally in Oracle JD Edwards World Software, a positive amount in G/L is always a debit and a negative amount is always a credit. This is not true in Russia. The accounts must be defined as active (generally assets and expenses), passive (generally equity, liabilities and revenues), or bi-functional (bank and miscellaneous clearing accounts). This definition is typically entered in description 2 for the category code UDC where there legal chart of accounts is kept.

13.3 Setting Up Correspondence Accounts (P74R0901)

A setup is required to indicate if the amount for a given transaction should be treated as a positive or a negative debit, or as a positive or a negative credit.

Use the Correspondence Account set up program (P74R0901) to define the following transaction / account characteristics:

  • Original transaction: debit or credit

  • Batch type

  • Document type (optional)

  • Account type: Active / passive / bi-functional

  • Reporting column: this field indicates how the amount will be treated. Allowed values are:

    • DR+ could keep the sign or become a D- (debit negative)

    • CR + could keep the sign or become a C- (credit negative)

    • DR- could keep the sign or become a D+ (debit positive)

    • CR- could keep the sign or become a C+ (credit positive)

This set up is mandatory, if there is no set up for a given transaction / account, an error will be printed when editing correspondence. Please note that incorrect setup will result in a correspondence file imbalance.

Balancing combinations of correspondence entries for original imputation types are:

Original Imputation DR Original Imputation CR
DR + & CR + CR+ & CR-
DR+ & DR- CR- & DR-
