Identify Distributable Accounts in the Joint Venture Definition
This section describes how to use distributable segment values to identify the distributable accounts for a joint venture. You can use distributable segment values or an account set (recommended), but you can't use both.
Based on the primary ledger of the business unit selected for the joint venture, the Distributable Segments tab automatically displays the segments defined in the chart of accounts instance. From this list, you select only the segments needed to identify distributable accounts for the joint venture. The primary segment is selected by default because it’s the key to identifying financial transactions for all your joint ventures. All transactions are associated to a primary segment. You must select at least one other segment in addition to the primary segment. You can then define the distributable segment values in the Primary Segment Values tab.
