Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding CNAO Standard Accounting Data

The National Audit Office of China (CNAO) publishes the accounting auditing filing standard, GB/T 24589-[Year] Financial Information Technology - Data Interface of Accounting Software. This standard mandates the filing format of accounting data, expands the scope of filing required information, and requires additional organizations to file their accounting information including payroll data. State-owned enterprises, joint ventures, public sector, and the government ministry in China are required to report information to CNAO using the CNAO standard. The standard requires that organizations generate and submit compliant XML documents.

Oracle enables you to export PeopleSoft HCM data to XML files to comply with the CNAO standard for Shared Information and Payroll Information reports.

Note. As of the date of this PeopleBook publication, the most recent CNAO standard was GB/T 24589-2010, referred to as CNAO Version 2 standard. This chapter describes compliance with the Version 2 standard.
