Segment Values and Hierarchies Interface Tables

The Import Segment Values and Hierarchies process loads segment values and hierarchies if you maintain chart of accounts reference data outside Oracle Fusion applications.

You can load the segment values and hierarchies by populating two tables: GL_SEGMENT_VALUES_INTERFACE and GL_SEGMENT_HIER_INTERFACE, and by running the Import Segment Values and Hierarchies process.

You can use the GL_SEGMENT_VALUES_INTERFACE table to load segment values and the GL_SEGMENT_HIER_INTERFACE table to load segment value hierarchies to Oracle Fusion applications. For more information about tables, see the Tables and Views for Oracle Financials Cloud guide.

Assigning Values for Columns in the GL_SEGMENT_VALUES_INTERFACE table

You must enter values in all columns of the interface table that require values for the Import Segment Values and Hierarchies process to be successful.

The following table describes the columns that require values.

Enter the value NEW to indicate that you're bringing new segment value data.

VALUE_SET_CODE

Enter the value set code for the segment values.

VALUE

Enter the segment value.

SUMMARY_FLAG

Select N if the segment value is a child value or Y if the segment value is a parent value.

ENABLED_FLAG:

Select Y to enable the segment value. Enter N to disable the segment value.

ACCOUNT_TYPE:

Enter the natural account type if the segment value is for a natural account segment.

  • A: Asset

  • L: Liability

  • E: Expense

  • O: Owner's Equity

  • R: Revenue

ALLOW_POSTING_FLAG

DESCRIPTION

Different description columns exist for different languages. To see segment value description in a different language installation, you populate the segment description for that language too.

  • CREATION_DATE

  • CREATED_BY

  • LAST_UPDATE_DATE

  • LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN

  • LAST_UPDATED_BY

  • SEGMENT_VALUE_INTERFACE_ID

  • REQUEST_ID

  • LOAD_REQUEST_ID
