    Multiple Reporting Currencies

    The Multiple Reporting Currencies (MRC) is the set of unique feature

    embedded in Oracle applications, which allows you to report on and

    maintain accounting at the transaction level in more than one functionalcurrency. MRC is based on the Multi-Org Architecture, and is a significant

    aspect of a globalization strategy.

    The primary functional currency is the currency you use to record

    transactions and maintain your accounting data within the Oracle E-Business

    Suite. In the primary set of books, the functional currency is always the

    primary functional currency. Usually, the primary functional currency is the

    currency in which you perform most of your business transactions, and the

    one you use for legal reporting.

    A reporting set of books is a financial reporting entity associated with a

    primary set of books. While the reporting set of books has the same chart of

    accounts and accounting calendar as the primary set of books, its use of a

    different functional currency (reporting functional currency) allows you to

    report in a different functional currency than that of your primary set of

    books.

    You must define a separate set of books for each of your reporting functional

    currencies. By using MRC concept we can maintain up to Eight Reporting

    Set Of Books.

    that Oracle Applications are installed multiple times on a single database.

    numerous databases, each with one or more installations and

    implementations of the Oracle Applications.

    Period status in General Ledger

  • 8/8/2019 Arif Financials Notes

    16/31

    Open: In the Open status you can enter and post Journals.

    Closed: In this status Journal entry and posting not allowed until accounting

    period is reopened. Reporting and inquiry allowed.

    Permanently Closed: In this status Journal entry and posting not allowed.

    You cannot change this period status. Reporting and inquiry allowed. You

    can change the status.

    Never Opened: Journal entry and posting are not allowed. General Ledger

    assigns this status to any period preceding the first period ever opened in

    your calendar, or to any period that has been defined, but is not yet future-

    enterable. You cannot change this period status.

    Future-Entry: Journal entry is allowed, but posting is not. Your period isnot yet open, but falls within the range of future-enterable periods you

    designated in the Set of Books window. You cannot change this period

    status without using the concurrent process to open the period.

    Recurring Journals

    Define recurring journal formulas for transactions that you repeat every

    accounting period, such as accruals, depreciation charges, and allocations.

    You can use recurring journals to create three types of journal entries:

    Skeleton Journal Entries: Skeleton journals have varying amounts in each

    period. You define a recurring journal entry with out amounts, and then

    enter the appropriate amounts each accounting period.

    There are no formulas to enter, only account combinations. For example,

    you can record temporary labor expenses in the same account combination

    every month with varying amount due to fluctuations in hours..

    Standard Recurring Journal Entries: Standard recurring journal entries

    use the same accounts and amounts each period.For Example: Record monthly lease expenses with constant amounts

    charged to the same account.

    Recurring Journal Formula Entries: Formula entries use formulas to

    calculate journal amounts that vary from period to period. For example,

    calculate commotion to sales representative based on the sales of the month.

    key flexfield is a field made up of segments, where each segment has both a

    value and a meaning. You can think of a key flexfield as an intelligent

    field that your business can use to store information represented as codes.

    Most organizations use codes made up of meaningful segments to identify

    general ledger accounts, part numbers, and other business entities. Eachsegment of the code can represent a characteristic of the entity. For example,

    consider an account number for a bank. A complete bank number may

    consists of various segments like the country code, area code, city code,

    branch code, account type, account number etc

    the most comprehensive solution to comply with the India specific tax

    requirements as specified by Central Excise, Customs, Sales Tax and VAT,

    and Income Tax, (to the extent of tax deduction at source and generation of

    Depreciation Schedule for fixed assets). India Localization product also

    provides valuable information that can be used for statutory and

    management reporting.

    What Does India Localization Product Do?The product uses its own tax engine, for handling taxes applicable across

    'Procure to Pay' and 'Order to Cash' transactions.

    In India Localization, taxes are defaulted based on the pre-determined setup

    (Tax Defaultation). Tax amounts are calculated based on precedence such as

    transaction base value, tax on tax, or assessable value as specified by tax

    authority (Tax Calculation). The Tax Amount is considered for inventory

    valuation, recoverability and accounting based on the pre-determined

    recoverability and accounting rules (Tax Accounting and Recoverability).Details of recoverable tax amount are recorded as part of the repository (Tax

    Recording). This information can further be used to calculate the final tax

    liability arising on settlement at the end of the tax period (Tax Settlement)

    and for statutory reporting (Tax Reporting).

    Form personalization

    Introduction to Form personalization

    Form personalization is a declarative feature that alters the look and

    behavior of the oracle forms with out changing base code. This concept was

    introduced in the release 11.5.10. All E-Business suit forms can be

    personalized

    By using form personalization you can:1. Display your own terminology.

    2. Stream lines the screen interaction.

    3. Implement security policies.

    4. Add your own validation and error messages.

    There are some limitations:

    1. You can only change what oracle forms allows to be changed at run time.

    2. You can only respond to limited trigger events only.

    3. Your changes may be overridden by oracle base code.

    The scope of the AIM is enterprise wide.

    There are eleven processes of implementation.

    1. Business Process Architecture[BP]

    This phase explainsExisting business practicesCatalog change practicesLeading practicesFuture practices

    2. Business Requirement Definition[RD]

    This phase explains about theBase line questionnaire andThe gathering of information.

    3. Business Requirement Mapping[BR]

    In this phase we can match all the requirements of business with thestandard functionality of the oracle applications.

    If all the requirements match with oracle standard (with outcustomization) functionality then, it is called as vanillaimplementation).

    4. Application and Technical Architecture [TA]

    Explains the infrastructure requirements to implement oracleapplications.For example:

    desktopssoftwarehardwarepeople...etc

  • 8/8/2019 Arif Financials Notes

    30/31

    5. Build and Module Design[MD]

    In this phase concentrate on developing the new functionality which isrequired by the client.This is called customization.In this phase explains how to design a forms, database and reports...

    6. Data Conversion:[CV]

    Is the process of converting or transferring the data from legacysystem to oracle applications? This is called as data migration.Ex: transferring the closing balances of the previous year as anopening balances to next year.

    7. Documentation:[DO]In this phase we have to prepare module wise user guides andimplementation manuals which helps in the implementation.

    8. Business System Testing:[TE]

    A process of validating the setups and the functionality by a tester tocertify its status is allied business system testing. It is done by afunctional consultant.

    9. Performance Testing:[PT]

    Performance testing means evaluation of transaction saving time,transaction retrieval times. It is done by a technical team.

    10; Adoption and Learning.[AP]

    This phase explains about the removal of the legacy system of the

    client. The entire user should be trained with new oracle applications.In this phase we have to prepare user manuals.

    11. Production Migration[PM]

    A process of decommissioning of legacy system and the usage ofnew oracle application system begins in this phase.
