Automatic TAX in GL During Journal Import

Need a solution for the following.
Need to integrate Payroll data from a legacy system to General Ledger. GL Interface and Journal Import feature is being used. The Journal Lines will carry the TAX code and will have to automatically create the TAX lines in the Journal after import.
There is an option to automate TAX line generation during Manual Journal Entry by setting the TAX Required field in the Journal Header to 'Required' and supplying a Tax Code in the Line. However, on inspecting the GL INTERFACE tables for journal import there is no provision to set the Tax Required field to Required in the GL_INTERFACE table ( no column exists ).
Does anybody if Oracle GL supports the Automatic Tax calculation option for imported journals. Is the feature only available for Manual Journal Entry ?
Any workarounds possible to use the standard GL functionality for imported journals as well.

As I know, Calculate tax feature works only if you are entering manual journal entries from screen (not tried using ADI) (this is for customers who do not have any other modules others than GL and you are using manual entries).
I am aware of this functionality.If you are coming from the gl_interface, I guess, oracle assumes that you are already calculating the tax in the source system and importing the tax entries.
Journal Import on GL_INTERFACE does not support this feature.
But if you want to calculate the tax using the gl_interface, there are ways to do that. You can make use of the gl_import_hook_pkg.post_module_hook. This is called at the end of the Jounal Import program. This takes batch_ids in that are being created in the journal import. You can create a package that takes these batch_ids in and calculates tax using gl_calculate_tax_pkg.calculate_tax. This creates additional journal lines for you at the tax rate with the tax account that is setup. This involves some updates to gl_je_batches, gl_je_headers, gl_je_lines, but works. Let me know if you need more details.

Oracle GL error during journal import- ICM DOWN

Hi all,
I hit an error regarding the Concurrent Manager - Oracle GL during the journal import from GL_INTERFACE table. I've already populate the table with a set of dummy values. i've run the journal import to import the value from the table. i've clicked on correct and search for the Journal Import Data, but Oracle Application prompted me an error - FRM-40350: Query caused no record to retrieve, So i view the request, each and every of the request ID's phase is "Pending" with its status as "Stand by". I checked on the diagnostics and the error code was as following
CONC-DG-INACTIVE ICM DOWN
This request may have to wait on one or more of the following requests to complete before it can begin execution:
i have 2 doubts.firstly i was thinking could it be that i couldnt search for the Journal Import data at Journal: import - Correct was due to the Concurrent manager was down, thus prompting error FRM-40350? please advise. Secondly is that does CONC-DG-INACTIVE ICM DOWN suggest me to startup the concurrent management script? please advise
thanks in advance

Does LR3 automatically change exposures settings during DNG imports?

Hi all. I'm new to the forum and the software so my apologizes if I'm in the wrong place.
When I import RAW files and change them to DNG it seems as if the exposure settings are all over the place. For instance one image might import as:
Temp =5150
Tint =-3
Exposure =0.00
Recovery =29
Fill Light =0
Blacks =3
Brightness =+52
Contrast =+33
The very next image imports as:
Temp =5050
Tint = -8
Exposure = 0.00
Recovery = 4
Fill Light = 0
Blacks = 3
Brightness = +58
Contrast = +28
Is this a product of the software or the camera (Nikon D300).
Is there a way to import everything at baseline or 0?
Thanks in advance for the tips!!!

If the original NEF raw files have already been processed in an Adobe application then these settings will be applied to the DNG on import. The only other ways that the settings can be applied on import is via a develop preset (set in Import window) or if Apply Auto Tone Adjustments has been activated in Preferences>Presets panel

Controlling posting sequence during GL Import(GL_INTERFACE table)

I am putting multiple journal records in GL_INTERFACE table having same accounting date. I have enabled Auto Post.
My requirement is, during Journal import and subsequent Auto posting. Some particular journals to be posted before posting other journals. Is there any column in GL_INTERFACE other than accounting date, which can be used to sequence the posting of journals in GL.
This requirement comes due to the fact, that some of the journals add funds to a account and other journals use that funds from that account. My requirement is when I do a journal import, GL should first post the journals which add funds and then post the other journals which use those funds, else I may have funds check failed issue.
Please let me know of solutions...

Hi,
Thanks for the solution. My company has assigned me similar kind of automation process. So if you could give me more input on this that would be great. You can send me further mails on the following id : [email protected] or a reply in the same forum is much appriciated. Waiting for your reply.
Thanks,

Error during export & import of rules in RAR 5.2

Hi all,
We followed the steps mentioned in exporting & importing the rules as per the Config guide. But we
are receiving the below error during the import of rules. Can anybody please throw a limelight on why this error message is appearing?
"Error in Table Data ==> VIRSA_CC_CRPROF
SQL==>Insert into VIRSA_CC_CRPROF(VSYSKEY,PROFILE,RULESETID,RISKLEVEL,STATUS)Values(??????)
Record==>D VIRSA_CC_CRPROF null"
We also ensured that the downloaded file is not truncated and saved it in a separate folder. Does the file needs to saved in ANSI or Unicode text? We saved in ANSI
Also the background ground job is not getting scheduled automatically during the import of ruels. Is that due to the above error?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Srihari.K

Hello Sri,
background job for generating the rules won`t be scheduled before you upload the file successfully.
The most obvious reason for this error message is that you have line in your file - in table VIRSA_CC_CRPROF that is corrupted. Make sure all lines from table VIRSA_CC_CRPROF have all predefined fields - (VSYSKEY,PROFILE,RULESETID,RISKLEVEL,STATUS).
If you keep hiting this problem just delete this table, after the upload you`ll add the critical profiles manually - I bet you don`t have many of them.
Also from my experience I always choose to save the downloaded file in UNICODE UTF-8 format.
Once the file is saved in other format, there`s no use of it, download it again and save directly in Unicode.
Make sure you don`t have empty fields, even in the fields where you don`t have values, you must leave space, otherwise you`ll keep hitting the same issue.

Iliya

Journal Import References

Hello,
I am using the follwoing code to import a journal to GL:
INSERT INTO GL_INTERFACE
     (STATUS, SET_OF_BOOKS_ID, USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME,
     USER_JE_CATEGORY_NAME, ACCOUNTING_DATE, CURRENCY_CODE, DATE_CREATED, CREATED_BY, ACTUAL_FLAG,
     CURRENCY_CONVERSION_DATE, USER_CURRENCY_CONVERSION_TYPE, CURRENCY_CONVERSION_RATE,
     CODE_COMBINATION_ID, ENTERED_DR, ENTERED_CR,
     REFERENCE10)
VALUES('NEW', i.set_of_books_id, i.je_source,
i.je_category, i.accounting_date, i.currency_code,
SYSDATE, i.user_id,'A',
i.accounting_date, DECODE(i.currency_code, 'USD', 'User', 'Corporate'), DECODE(i.currency_code, 'USD', 1, NULL), i.code_combination_id, i.entered_dr, i.entered_cr,
i.description);
The thing is that I need to put a description that appears in gl_je_headers and not only in gl_je_lines, does anyone know which column has to be filled to achieve this?
Thanks

Refer GL User guide. It Explains all reference columns like
REFERENCE1 (Batch Name): Enter a batch name for your import
batch. Journal Import creates a default batch name using the
following format: (Optional User–Entered REFERENCE1) (Source)
(Request ID) (Actual Flag) (Group ID). If you enter a batch name,
Journal Import prefixes the first 50 characters of your batch name
to the above format.
REFERENCE2 (Batch Description): Enter a description for your
batch. If you do not enter a batch description, Journal Import
automatically gives your batch a description using the format:
Journal Import (Source) (Request Id).
REFERENCE4 (Journal entry name): Enter a journal entry name
for your journal entry. Journal Import creates a default journal
entry name using the following format: (Category Name)
(Currency) (Currency Conversion Type, if applicable) (Currency
Conversion Rate, if applicable) (Currency Conversion Date, if
applicable) (Encumbrance Type ID, if applicable) (Budget Version
ID, if applicable). If you enter a journal entry name, Journal Import
prepends the first 25 characters of your journal entry name to the
above format.
REFERENCE5 (Journal entry description): Enter a description for
your journal entry. If you do not enter a journal entry description,
Journal Import automatically gives your journal entry a description
using the format: Journal Import – Concurrent Request ID.
REFERENCE6 (Journal entry reference): Enter a reference name or
number for your journal entry. If you do not enter a journal entry
reference, Journal Import automatically creates a journal entry
reference called Journal Import Created.
REFERENCE7 (Journal entry reversal flag): Enter Yes to mark
your journal entry for reversal. If you do not enter Yes, Journal
Import automatically defaults to No.
REFERENCE9 (Journal reversal method): Enter Yes to use the
change sign method, No to use the switch debit/credit method.
REFERENCE10 (Journal entry line description): Enter a
description for your journal entry line. If you do not enter a
journal entry line description, Journal Import uses the subledger
document sequence value. If there is no document sequence value,
Journal Import creates a journal entry description called Journal
Import Created.
REFERENCE21 through REFERENCE30: Enter a reference name
or number to further identify your import journal entry lines.
Columns REFERENCE21 through REFERENCE30 map into
columns REFERENCE_1 through REFERENCE_10, respectively, of
the GL_JE_LINES table.
REFERENCE3: Do not enter a value in this column.
REFERENCE11 through REFERENCE20: Do not enter a value in
this column.

'Journal Import Created'

Hi All,
i am using WebADi to do a journal upload, and in the line description line i give description as 'XYZ'
after successful upload, when we review the journal before posting
Nav: Journals ->Post ->(find the particular batch) Review Batch -> JOurnals
the description displays 'Journal Import Created' instead of original line description 'XYZ' entered.
How to get the description to populate with the Line description entered during journal upload?
Kindly Suggest
Thanks
Regards,
SK

Inorder toachieve this for Journal Entry Line, please update Reference10 field of GL_INTERFACE to the description entered in Subledger Interface. if ots for Journal Entry Header please update the Reference6 field to the corresponding description.

Defining Accounts for Automatic Tax Payable Transfer Posting

Dear all,
I would like to know about accouting process of Accounts for Automatic Tax Payable Transfer Posting.
Please give me a detail example about business that use this account
Thanks so much
Minhtb

Hello,
This scenario applies at month end.
Say during the month you have posted payables are receivables resulting in the following balances on your tax accounts:
Input tax account: 10.000 Dr
Outpux tax account 12.500 Cr
When you prepare your tax return at month end with report "Sales Purchases tax returns", it will print out all if your input and output tax transactions, detailing the total balances mentioned above.
At the same time you can activate the tax payable posting option with help of the variant options. Besides the printout, SAP will then also automatically post the following document:
Dr Output tax account 12.500
Cr Input tax account 10.000
Cr Tax payable account 2.500
in other words, the input/output tax accounts are zero and the remaining (payable) balance is offet to a special clearing account, the "tax payable account". This account is then cleared against cash as part of e.g. bank processing when the payment is made and that ends the process.
hope this clarifies, please do not forget to assign POINTS if this answers your question.
Thanks

I have the latest downloadable version of LR5. It crashed while it was createing 1:1 previews during an import. After a Win7(64) restart, it shows a message that LR needs to quit because it can't read the preview files and it will try to fix it the next

I have the latest downloadable version of LR5. It crashed while it was createing 1:1 previews during an import. After a Win7(64) restart, it shows a message that LR needs to quit because it can't read the preview files and it will try to fix it the next time is launches. I get the same message the next and every subsequent time it launches so I can't launch LR at all now.
I get that the preview file got corrupted somehow. Is there some way to fix this problem without building a new catalog?

Use Windows Explorer to open the folder containing your catalog. You will see a folder with the extension .lrdata. You need to delete that folder and then start Lightroom again. Lightroom will generate a new previews folder.

Hi
Pl Make sure you have done following settings for the Automatic Creation of PO during GR:
1) In SPRO ---> Enterprise Structure ---> Assignment -
> Material Management ---> Assign Std. Purchase Org. to your Plant...
2) In Material Master -
> Purchasing View -
> Pl. Check. Automatic PO check Box   and Maintain Purchasing Group....
3)Create your Vendor for oyur Company Code and Std. Pur. Org. combination and in that Vendor Master -> Purchasing Data View--- > Pl. Check Auto. PO Check Box...
4)For your Vendor -Material Master - Plant -Std. Pur. Org combination Maintain valid Info record...
5)In OLMB ---> Goods Receipt -
> Automatic Creation of PO ---> for the M.Type:101 pl. check Auto PO check Box
6) In OLMB ---> Movement types ---> Copy,Delete, Check M.Types ---> Choose the M.Type:101   and go into Details -
> Then goto allowed Fields for M.Types for M.Type:101 ---> there for the M.Type:101   make the field   LIFNR as a Mandatoty field...
If you have done the above settings properly...then in MIGO ---> Choose Transaction GR and referance as Others
and do the GR....Make sure you are doing GR with M.Type:101....and yougive the Vendor's name during   GR....
Now If you save the GR ...automatically PO will be created...
this you can see it by displaying the MIGO Document..

It looks like the same error but in two different logs. Has anyone seen this error before? Thanks.

I checked and the datafiles for all the tablespaces are set to autoextend up to 10gb and none have done this in the tablepaces that are close to being full. I did increase three tablespaces that were showing close to being full and that did not resolve the error. Would I need to restart the process from the beginning and adjust the dbsize.xml to make it work?

Journal Import finds no records in GL_INTERFACE for processing.

Hi,
I'm using the Oracle Web ADI (11i) to upload journal entries form a spreedsheat to GL.
When the request is finished, this message is shown on the out put :
Journal Import finds no records in GL_INTERFACE for processing.
Check SET_OF_BOOKS_ID, USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME, and GROUP_ID of import records.
If no GROUP_ID is specified, then only data with no GROUP_ID will be retrieved. Note that most data
from the Oracle subledgers has a GROUP_ID, and will not be retrieved if no GROUP_ID is specified.
Can you help me to reslove it.
Thx.

How not to get a 'Journal Import Created' description at the Journal Entry Lines?

For records loaded thru the Journal import,
I always get a 'Journal Import Created' description at the Journal Entry Lines.
Instead of this description, I want a
more useful information which I may
include at the GL_INTERFACE table
possibly at the REFERENCE10 field.
For those who will reply to this question,
thank you very much in advance.
null

To populate this journal description, the Reference10 field must be populated in the GL_INTERFACE table.
However, I have also discovered (version 11.03) that if you populate this field, but then import summarized journals, Oracle discards the value and reverts to "Journal Import Created" unless the value in the reference10 field is identical for all records to be summarized.

I would say those exceptions always happening with Java products of Cisco.
You need to open a Cisco TAC case for them to collect logs and see in details (in programming view) why this exception is happening.
From my experience this may take sometime because the TAC engineer usually have no idea about the programming so he forward the logs analysis to a programmer who can understand.
If you can open a TAC case then this should be your next step.
Good luck.
Amjad
P.S: The main reason of most such exceptions is bugs.
