GL Balance Cube Processes Run from User Interface

On application pages, you can run processes that create, rebuild, publish, and maintain Oracle General Ledger balances cubes, including automatically run child processes.

The Create Accounting Configuration process updates the underlying table and permanently saves the settings after the accounting configuration has been completed. The process also runs the Create Accounting Configuration: Create Cubes child process, which creates the accounting configuration and a balances cube when setup is completed. Both standard and average daily balances (ADB) cubes, if enabled, are processed in the same request. To run the accounting configuration process, navigate to the Review and Submit Accounting Configuration task.

The Publish Chart of Account Hierarchies process creates the structural hierarchy for the chart of accounts. Both standard and average daily balances (ADB) cubes, if enabled, are processed in the same request. The process also runs the Publish Chart of Account Hierarchy Versions child process, one child process runs for each combination of value set and chart of accounts. To run the publication process, navigate to the Publish Account Hierarchies task.

The Create Ledger Set process updates the underlying tables and creates a ledger set. It affects both standard and ADB cube types, if enabled, in the same request. To run the ledger set process, navigate to the Manage Ledger Sets task.

The following table describes the child processes for the Create Ledger Set process and indicates the affected cube types.
