14.4.2 Use and Execute the Balance Computation Management Ledger Process

Use this Run Pipeline (Process) to compute the daily movements, Period-to-Date, backdated, and Translation Process Execution of average balances in Balance Computation.

Ensure that you complete the following procedures and then proceed with the use and execution of the Balance Computation Management Ledger Process:

To use and execute the Balance Computation Management Ledger Process in the Process Orchestration, do the following:

  1. To access the Balance Computation Management Ledger Process Pipeline, on the Home page, select the Process Orchestration. The Process Modeller page is displayed.
  2. On the Process Modeller page, search and select the Balance Computation Management Ledger Process. The Process Flow page is displayed. This Process Flow is designed on the Drawing Canvas using the Transition, Activity, and Widgets Components available in the floating toolbar. A Data Service Widget is added at the beginning meant for sourcing the Data for Accounting Entries. Then the BalanceComputation Widget is used for each GL Type Activity such as Assets, Liabilities, Expenses, Revenue, Gains, Losses, Contra Asset, Contra Liability, and Owner’s Equity. The Activities are sequenced in the order of the Backdated Process, Daily Balances Process, and Average Balances Process. The Activities are repeated in the Run for each General Ledger Type and are executed in parallel. The Balance Translation Node is added in the end.
  3. To view the details of any Activity, double-click on the Activity and the details related to its Activity, Transition, and Notification are displayed. On the drawing canvas, you can select and see the Definition, Data Fields, and Application Rule details.
  4. To execute the Run, you can select the Run Parameter Values using the Execution Button on the Process Flow page or on the Process Modeller page.
  5. Go to the Process Modeller page to execute the Run. Click the Menu Button corresponding to the Balance Computation Management Ledger Run Process that needs to be executed. Click Execute Run. The Execution page is displayed.
  6. On the Execution page, to execute the Run with parameters, select With Parameters in the Execution Type List. Select or enter the required values for each field as follows.

    Note:

    Only one Legal Entity and Source Code must be selected for execution of the Balance Computation process pipeline.
