Security for Subledger Accounting

Oracle Fusion Subledger Accounting features require both function and data security privileges.

Overview

Security for Subledger Accounting includes:

• Setup task security

  • Security to configure accounting rules to define accounting treatments for transactions.

• Transaction task security

  • Security to create subledger journal entries (manual subledger journal entries or those generated by the Create Accounting process or Online Accounting).

  • Security to review and generate reports of subledger journal entries and lines.

Security to Perform Setup Tasks

Use the Define Subledger Accounting Rules task in the Setup and Maintenance work area to configure subledger accounting rules.

To configure subledger accounting rules, the setup user must be provisioned with a role that includes the Subledger Accounting Administration duty role.

• In the security reference implementation, the Financial Application Administrator job role hierarchy includes the Subledger Accounting Administration duty role. This role provides the access to configure your accounting rules.

• For more information about available setup job roles, duty roles and privileges, see the Oracle Financial Security Reference Manual.

Security to Perform Transactional Tasks

To create and view subledger journal entries, you must have the necessary access to perform the tasks in the relevant subledger work areas. Predefined subledger job roles include the entitlement to create and view subledger journal entries for subledger transactions you are authorized to access.
