Setting Up Flex Accounting

Access the Flexible Sales Account Revisions form.

To associate a flex rule with the item subledger, enter X in the Item column.

AAI Table Number

Enter a number used to specify sequence and retrieve accounting information.

Document Type

Enter a user defined code (00/DT) that identifies the type of document. This code also indicates the origin of the transaction. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has reserved document type codes for vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets, which create automatic offset entries during the post program. (These entries are not self-balancing when you originally enter them.)

The following document types are defined by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and should not be changed:

P: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable

R:JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable

T: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll

I: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory

O: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Purchase Order Processing

J: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting/Joint Interest Billing

S: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Processing

File Name

Enter the number of a specific table. For example, the General Ledger Master table name is F0901. All file names begin with F.

Enter a file name to associate a table with a segment.

Cost Object

Event point processing flag 04.

The values for the Cost Object field are 1,2,3, and 4. This value indicates which cost object is populated with a particular segment.

Cost Type

Enter a code that specifies the type of cost object and the type of editing. Types are stored in the Cost Object Types table (F1620) and can be added or modified using the Cost Object Types program (P1620).

Enter a cost object and cost type to associate a flexible segment with the standard format segment.

Data Item

Enter a data item to associate the data item with a segment.

Data Type

Enter a code used to identify the address to be used in flexible sales accounting. Values are:

1: Bill To

2: Ship To

3: Parent

This code is used in conjunction with the Data Item field (SFIT). If the data item is from the address book master file, then the Data Type field is required.

To enable flex accounting rules in a specific program, complete the appropriate processing options in that program that correspond to flex accounting. Use the Cost Object Rules Setup Method program (P1691) to display the programs that are enabled for flex accounting.
