AAI Hierarchy

You can set up the AAI for each company or for company 00000 only. If you do not set up company-specific AAIs, the system uses the AAI that is set up for company 00000. If you do not use a GL offset, the system uses the account associated with the AAI item (PT, RT, GT) only.

If a tax rate area has a GL offset specified, you must set up an AAI with the same GL offset. If the system does not find the PTxxxx, RTxxxx, or GTxxxx, where xxxx is the GL offset specified in the tax rate area, the system returns an error message when you attempt to process the transactions.

You must specify a business unit and object account when you set up tax AAIs for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable systems. The subsidiary field is optional. For the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting system, if you do not specify a business unit for the tax AAI, the system uses the business unit from the account entered on the journal entry.

This table displays the hierarchy that the system uses to determine the account to which tax amounts are posted.

Hierarchy	Company	JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable	JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable	JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting
1	Company specific	PT + GL Offset	RT + GL Offset	GT + GL Offset
2	Company 00000	PT + GL Offset	RT + GL Offset	GT + GL Offset
