Understanding Ledger Type Columns

When you set up ledger type columns, you specify a ledger type to include in the column. You specify elements such as whether the ledger is for a budget, which totaling method to apply to the column, and whether to enable as if currency for the column.

For most ledger types, the system obtains values to display in the Project Status Inquiry form from the Account Balances table (F0902). However, for the AA (account actual) and AU (account unit) ledger types, the system obtains values from the F0902 table, the Account Ledger table (F0911), or both the F0902 and F0911 tables based on your date selection and the value that you specify for the G/L posting code. See G/L Posted Code.

You can use ledger type columns as segments in formulas, and can select a ledger type column as the basis column for a visual alert column.
