Specify Distributable Segment Values

In the Primary Segment Values tab, specify a combination of segment values to identify distributable accounts in Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials—the accounts that contain the transactions for the joint venture.

At a minimum, each combination must include at least one value for the primary segment. If all of the accounts associated with a specific primary segment value are distributable, you can leave the other segment values blank. If you have a combination of distributable and non-distributable accounts with the same primary segment value, you must identify each distributable account in the joint venture definition.

1. Access the Account information page for your joint venture definition and click the Primary Segment Values tab.

2. Click Add, and then in the empty row in the grid, click in the first column and select a segment value.

   The first column in the grid represents the primary segment associated with the primary segment label specified in the Joint Venture System Options, for example “Primary Segment: Department.”

3. Click Submit on the row you added.

   The system displays the description associated with the primary segment value.

4. If all accounts associated with the primary segment value are distributable, perform the following steps:

   1. In the row with the segment value, click Distributable Segment Values under the Action column.

   2. On Distributable Segment Values, click Add.

      The system adds a row with the primary segment value. In addition to the column for the primary segment value, it displays columns based on the segments selected on the Distributable Segments page.

   3. Leave the remaining segment or segments blank.

   4. Click Submit.

      The following example shows a row on the Distributable Segment Values page for cost center 1006 - Permian Basin Cost Center, where the value for the HEPPCompany and HEPP Account segments are blank. This means that any transactions in accounts associated to cost center 1006 and the accounts in the HEPPCompany and HEPPAccount segments are distributable.

5. If only some accounts associated with the primary segment value are distributable, perform the following steps to identify each distributable account:

   1. On the Primary Segment Values tab, click Distributable Segment Values in the row with the primary segment value. The primary segment value is 1006 in the example in the following image.

   2. On Distributable Segment Values, click Add, which adds an editable row for entering a combination of segment values for the primary segment value.

      The following example shows three segments for a joint venture: HEPPCostcenter, which is the primary segment selected by default; HEPPCompany; and HEPPAccount.

      

   3. To identify distributable accounts in the other segments, you can perform the following actions:

      • Click the drop-down list and select a value.

      • Use the % wildcard to designate a range of accounts in the segment as distributable.

      • Leave a segment blank if all the values for the segment are distributable.

   4. Click Submit on the row you added.

   5. Add additional rows to identify additional distributable accounts as needed.

6. When finished, click Submit on the page to save your changes.

   Note: On the Primary Segment Values tab, if you identified the wrong primary segment value, you can click Delete on the row to delete it. This also removes any distributable segment values associated with the primary segment value.
