Understanding AAI Tables for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement System

You set up AAIs to determine the accounts to which the system distributes general ledger entries.

In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system, the system creates journal entries when you receive an inventory item. You set up AAIs to indicate the accounts for which the system creates the journal entries. You also can enter memo text for each AAI.

In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system from Oracle, AAIs define the links among the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Accounting systems.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system uses multiple AAI tables, each of which applies to a certain type of transaction. In each table, you specify a general ledger account for each unique combination of company, document type, and general ledger class.

For example, you can set up an AAI table for inventory receipt transactions. Each time you enter a receipt for an inventory item, the system determines the general ledger account to which to debit the receipt based on the company, document type, and general ledger class for the receipt.

The system stores AAIs in the Distribution/Manufacturing - AAI Values table (F4095).
