Identifying Distributable Accounts for Joint Ventures

You create joint ventures so that you can accurately calculate and distribute expenses and revenue among the partners involved in the joint venture. To ensure that the system calculates and distributes all of the required amounts, you must specify which accounts are distributable. Only amounts associated with accounts that are defined as distributable are included in the joint venture distribution process.

To specify which accounts to include in the distribution process, you use the Joint Venture Distributable Accounts program (P09J01).

When you launch the Joint Venture Distributable Accounts program, you must first enter search criteria to find the accounts you want to mark as distributable. When you click Find, the system displays all Account Master table (F0901) records that match your search criteria.

To mark an account as distributable, you select the Distributable option on that row, and then click OK.

When you save your distributable selections, the system creates a record in the Joint Venture Distributable Account table (F09J01) for the selected accounts.

If you deselect the Distributable option for an account, and then click OK, the system removes the record from the F09J01 table.

Note that when using this application, you cannot update or delete any records from the F0901 table.

Creating Distributable Accounts from Other JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Systems

If you also use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost system to manage your business, you can mark accounts as distributable when you set up accounts for chart types in the Chart Type Setup form of the Job Cost Code Structures program (P51091). After you have specified distributable accounts for a chart type, you can copy this chart type to create other chart types with distributable accounts, as well as copy the chart to the job master record. Similarly, when you copy a job (that uses a chart with distributable accounts) to another job or chart, the distributable accounts are also copied.

See "Creating a Chart Type" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Job Cost Implementation Guide.

When you use the Account Master program (P0901) to create a copy of a distributable account, the distributable feature of the account is also copied and the system creates a record for the copied account in the F09J01 table.

You can access the P09J01 program from the Row menu of these programs:

  • Business Unit Master (P0006)

  • Job Cost Master Revisions (P51006)

When you delete distributable accounts using the Account Master program (P0901) or the Budget Original program (P510121), the system deletes the accounts from the Joint Venture Distributable Account table (F09J01) if the accounts are not used in the jobs and no F0911 entries exist for the accounts.
