Selecting Source Accounting Entities

Select accounting entities to specify the E-Business Suite ledgers or PeopleSoft business units from which the metadata and/or data is extracted.

After you register and initialize your source systems for use with ERP Integrator, you select the source system accounting entities (ledgers or business units) that you want to use for integration. Segments and chartfields are the terminologies specific to E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft.
