10.7 Accounting Balance Ingestion

AFCS has a predefined process to extract the general ledger balance from your ERP Financials Cloud Service and ingest it into AFCS. This is achieved by executing the GL Balances Process.

AFCS will support the run-time setting of As Of Date across the Journal and GL balance ingestion from Financials Cloud. In the case of journal data, the AFCS Posting Date will also be set based on the As Of Date set at run-time and ERP Accounting Date.

The following logic will apply:
  • As Of Date is provided as a run-time parameter.
  • When it concerns journals data:
    • If ERP Accounting Date is on or after run-time As Of Date.
    • As Of Date and Posting Date are both set to ERP Accounting Date.
    • If ERP Accounting Date is prior to run-time As Of Date.
    • As Of Date is set to the provided As Of Date.
    • Posting Date is set to ERP Accounting Date (indicating a back-dated journal line).
  • When it concerns GL Balance data:
    • AFCS As Of Date is recorded as the run-rime As Of Date provided.
    • GL Balance extract jobs will not permit extraction of balance as of a prior date.
