Set Up AAIs
Access the Account Revisions form.
- Co (company)
Enter a code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the Company Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany transactions.
Note: You can use company 00000 for default values, such as dates and AAIs. You cannot use company 00000 for transaction entries.- Do Ty (document type)
Enter a code from UDC table (00/DT) that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction. The system reserves several prefixes for document types, such as vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets.
- GL Cat(general ledger category)
Enter a code from UDC table (41/9) that identifies the GL offset that the system uses to search for a account to post the transaction. If you do not want to specify a class code, you can enter **** (four asterisks) in this field.
You can use AAIs to predefine classes of automatic offset accounts for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system, and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Management systems.
The system can generate accounting entries based upon a single transaction. For example, a single sale of a stock item can trigger the generation of accounting entries similar to:
Sales Stock (Debit) xxxxx.xx.
AR Stock Sales (Credit) xxxxx.xx.
Posting Category: IN80.
Stock Inventory (Debit) xxxxx.xx.
Stock COGS (Credit) xxxxx.xx.
The system uses the class code and the document type to locate the AAI.
- Branch Plant
Enter an alphanumeric code that identifies a separate entity within a business for which you want to track costs. For example, a business unit might be a warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch, or plant.
You can assign a business unit to a document, entity, or person for purposes of responsibility reporting. For example, the system provides reports of open accounts payable and accounts receivable by business unit to track equipment by responsible department.
Business unit security might prevent you from viewing information about business units for which you have no authority.
If you leave this field blank, the system uses the business unit in the Charge to Cost Center field on the work order.
- Obj Acct (object account)
Enter a value that identifies the portion of a general ledger account that refers to the division of the cost code (for example, labor, materials, and equipment) into subcategories. For example, you can divide the cost code for labor into regular time, premium time, and burden.
Note: If you use a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you should use all six digits. For example, 000456 is not the same as 456 because, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.- Sub (subsidiary)
Enter a subset of an object account. Subsidiary accounts include detailed records of the accounting activity for an object account.
Note: If you are using a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, entering 000456 is not the same as entering 456. If you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.If you leave this field blank, the system uses the value in the Cost Code field on the work order.
