Search Criteria for Liabilities

The system uses certain fields as search criteria to determine a valid account for the distribution of liabilities. The system uses this sequence to search for AAIs for a specific company:

1. On the first pass, the system compares the home business unit PDBA code and journal type of the time entry record to the search criteria defined in the AAI for Liabilities and attempts to match the AAI search criteria to the appropriate journal type.

2. On each successive pass, the system uses the business unit or the journal type.

3. Finally, if no matches exist in the rules for the specific company, the system searches the rules for Company 00000.

This table illustrates the fields that the system uses as search criteria for a specific company. For tax liabilities, the system matches the journal type and, optionally, the employee's business unit. For PDBA liabilities, the system matches the PDBA code and, optionally, the employee's business unit.
