Combination Editing Groups
Combination editing groups define a set of combination rules. You can use the Combination Group page to associate multiple combination rules with a combination group definition. The system then applies the rules as a group during the journal edit process.
For example, if you create a combination definition in which you specify ACCOUNT as the anchor ChartField and DEPTID and PRODUCT as the nonanchor ChartFields for the rules, all the rules that are in a common group must use this combination definition. If you create a combination definition for PROJECT_ID and AFFILIATE, you must create another group for the rules with this combination definition.
Note:
You can define several groups by using the same ChartField combination definition and attach all of these groups to a ledger group for a given business unit. However, PeopleSoft recommends that you keep all the rules that have the same combination definition within the same group if possible. This increases performance of the combination editing process, because it reduces the number of groups that are being processed. Within the Ledgers For A Unit component, you can select to process a combination edit group (Process Group) by transaction source, which also increases processing efficiency by eliminating unnecessary validation against process groups that are not applicable.
