Import and Export Ledgers

You can import and export flat file ledgers to and from third-party reporting software. A process in General Ledger enables you to import a flat file from another product or external system that contains rows of ledger data. This functionality is often used to combine distributed ledger data from different General Ledger systems to perform consolidation, summarization and corporate reporting.

You can also select or add a flat file format and create flat file ledgers using a general ledger process that exports them to third-party reporting software systems. This functionality is often used in those countries requiring delivery of ledger data in a particular format for use in producing statutory reports in a required format.

You can also exchange ledger data between distributed General Ledger systems using the Ledger Publish Enterprise Integration Point (IP) and Ledger Load processing. This functionality is designed to work together with Consolidation.
