Setting Up AAIs by Cost Component

Enter a code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the Company Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany transactions.

Note: You can use company 00000 for default values such as dates and automatic accounting instructions. You cannot use company 00000 for transaction entries.

Enter a user defined code (00/DT) that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction. The system reserves several prefixes for document types, such as vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets. The reserved document type prefixes for codes are:

P: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts payable

R: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts receivable

T: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Time and Pay

I: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory

O: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Purchase order

S: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales order

Enter a user defined code (41/9) that identifies the GL offset that system uses when it searches for the account to which it posts the transaction. If you do not want to specify a class code, you can enter **** (four asterisks) in this field.

You can use automatic accounting instructions (AAIs) to predefine classes of automatic offset accounts for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Management systems. You might assign GL class codes as follows:

IN20: Direct Ship Orders

IN60: Transfer Orders

IN80: Stock Sales

The system can generate accounting entries based upon a single transaction. For example, a single sale of a stock item can trigger the generation of accounting entries similar to the following:

Sales-Stock (Debit) xxxxx.xx

A/R Stock Sales (Credit) xxxxx.xx

Posting Category: IN80

Stock Inventory (Debit) xxxxx.xx

Stock COGS (Credit) xxxxx.xx

The system uses the class code and the document type to find the AAI.

Enter a code that designates each element of cost for an item. Examples of the cost object types are:

A1: Purchased raw material

B1: Direct labor routing rollup

B2: Setup labor routing rollup

C1: Variable burden routing rollup

C2: Fixed burden routing rollup

Dx: Outside operation routing rollup

Xx: Extra add-ons, such as electricity and water

The optional add-on computations usually operate with the type Xx extra add-ons. This cost structure allows you to use an unlimited number of cost components to calculate alternative cost rollups. The system then associates these cost components with one of six user defined summary cost buckets.

Enter a subset of an object account. Subsidiary accounts include detailed records of the accounting activity for an object account.

Note: If you are using a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, entering 000456 is not the same as entering 456 because, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.

If you leave this field blank, the system uses the value you entered on the work order in the Cost Code field.
