Automatic Accounting Instructions
Many JD Edwards EnterpriseOne programs need information about the account structure and specific account values to process business transactions properly. You define the account structure and specific account values using AAIs. The system stores the AAI values that you define for the company in the Automatic Accounting Instructions Master table (F0012). Whenever a program performs an accounting function, it accesses this table.
Some of the fixed assets AAIs can be set up as specific to the company, based on ranges of account numbers. The system includes predefined ranges. You must specify the business unit, object, and subsidiary accounts for the ranges as necessary.
The system uses single AAI values to find individual accounts and AAI ranges to find account ranges. When you set up AAI ranges, note that:
You can set up a maximum of 49 account ranges for a single company.
The maximum number of account ranges that you can set up for all of the companies combined is 200.
Do not skip AAI ranges.
For example, do not set up FX range 01-02 and FX range 05-06, and leave FX range 03-04 blank for later use. If the system searches the AAIs for an account and finds a gap in a range, it stops searching.
You must set up the AAI ranges consecutively, but you are not required to set up the object accounts in numerical order.
You must set up these AAI ranges for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Fixed Assets system:
