GL Distribution

Account Number

Enter a value that identifies an account in the general ledger. Use one of these formats to enter account numbers:

Standard account number (business unit.object.subsidiary or flex format).

Third GL number (maximum of 25 digits).

Account ID number. The number is eight digits long.

Speed code, which is a two-character code that you concatenate to the AAI item SP. You can then enter the code instead of an account number.

The first character of the account number indicates its format. You define the account format in the General Accounting constants.

Amount

Enter the amount that the system adds to the account balance of the associated account number. Enter credits with a minus sign (-) either before or after the amount.

Track Taxes

Enter a value to indicate whether the system updates the F0018R table with tax information for the specified account. You must set up the general ledger account as taxable to enter information in this field. Values are:

1: The account is available for tracking taxes.

0: The account is not available for tracking taxes.

Note: The system automatically changes the field to 1 if the account is set up as taxable and at least one pay item on the invoice has taxes. If you do not want to track taxes for the account, change the value to 0. If the account is not set up as taxable and you enter a 1 in the field, the system automatically changes the value to 0.

Tax Exp Code (tax explanation code)

If you enter 1 in the Track Taxes field, you must complete this field.

Tax Rate Area

If you enter 1 in the Track Taxes field, you must complete this field.

Enter one of the tax rates that was entered on the voucher. If you leave this field blank, the system uses the tax rate/area that is assigned to the GL account. If the tax rate/area assigned does not match one of the tax rate/areas on the voucher, the system will not update the F0018R table.
