Jounral Entry apportionment through Journal Template

Hi Experts:
I have a business scenario with one of my client.
They have electricity bill (or all the utility bills) received through the purchasing module which goes into one GL account Electricity. At the end of the month, they want to apportion the amount from Electricity account as 50% to their branches, 25% to administration and 25% to marketing.
I tried to achieve this using Journal Template (percent distribution) - by credit 100% from General Electricity and distributing the balance as above
Unfortunately it does not work - it requires an amount to be put in the first account (General account)
Any ideas as to how to achieve this ?
regards
Manian

Hi,
I am not sure what the issue is.
You create a template that will distribute an amount according to a predifined percentage.
When you create a Journal Entry from this Posting Template you fill in an amount on 1 of the rows and the other rows will be populated according to the percentage relation with that row. An amount will of course have to be put in as the percentages themselves are not amounts.
Is it always the same amount or does it change from month to month? The idea with the percentage is to use it as a distribution when the amount changes but the distribution should always be the same.
If the amount is always the same you could use Recurring Posting.
Is there something we are missing?
Let us know.

Journal Template

is it possible to fix some default dimension members in journal template..for example the value datasrc allways have to be JOURNAL..
Also is it possible to rearrage the Journal Template looks for example Jounral ID and Group are coming to the lowerpart of the header ...can it be shifted to the upper part so that FIXED header dimension can come as last portion of Header Journal Template..
Appreicate inputs...

Hello,
For adding a fixed value of datasrc try this....
Limits to Dimension Members for Journal Entries
You can limit the number of dimension members that are available to users during journal entry. All base-level members that the user has access to are available when the user fills out a journal template. By using the EnableJRN property for a dimension, you can limit the members available to users when they double-click member cells in the journal template.
Features
You can limit journal dimension member lists by adding the property EnableJRN to the dimension for which you want to limit journal access. Then, in its dimension sheet, type a Y in the EnableJRN column of base-level members for which you want to allow users to post journal entries. Repeat this for each dimension you want to limit, and process the dimensions.
Also, I know of at least one project that had success with changing the journal template heavily for formatting. I did not test you exact changes but suspect this will be ok. Please note you will have to recreate the template which means historical journal entries are lost (SAP is chaning this in the future)
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Chris

How to filter records in EIS drill through using template SQL

Hi,
I'm looking for an option to filter records in EIS drill through using Template SQL.
For eg: If we user runs drill through on 2011, it should restrict display of Jan & Feb and should display records for other months.
I tried using NOT IN clause, but got an error.
Can any one help me in understanding how this needs to be defined in template SQL
Thanks in advance

Hi Glenn,
I'm able to filter the records for specific periods.
However, I'm facing another problem now.
When I try to run drill through I get 'OLAP_error (1192025): Unknown Error: Not a valid Entry' error.
This is happening when I include condition as ((($$ab.ACCOUNT_CODE-COLUMN $$) IN ($$Account-VALUE$$)))
Here, ACCOUNT_CODE is field from Account dimension table and 'Account' is the name of the dimension.
If I remove this statement and run drill through, it runs but shows data for all accounts (irrespective of the Account selected)resulting in incorrect data.
Our RDBMS is Oracle. Can you please help me with this
Thanks

Web ADI GL Journal Template - Journal Line Number

Is anyone know if you can add the journal line number to a web adi journal template.
Our users create journals in a spreadsheet and upload in to Oracle vua web adi. They print a hard copy of the journal in Excel ADI template format as well as an output from Oracle of the journal to which their backup is attached. This is required for our audit/SOX requirements.
Our users/audit review team are frustrated that the order of the lines in the adi xls file is not the same as in the actual oracle journal.
Having looked at the journal template document I cannot find the journal line number as an option when creating the adi template. Is there any other way of ensuring that the line number in excel is the same as in Oracle (aside from re-ordering the excel lines into code combination order).
We are running on Oracle Applications : 11.5.10.2
Thanks

As per (How To Add Line Number Column To Journal Entry Webadi Template [ID 1102405.1]) this feature is not available in R12 so this implies that it is not available in 11i.
Thanks,
Hussein

Copy a journal template ?

is there a way to copy a journal template in HFM 9.3.1 ?

Hi,
If you want to move a journal template you have created for a specific scenario/year/period combination to another combination, you can go to the "Extract journals" menu then tick "Extract templates" and generate a jlf file. Once the jlf file is generated, you only need to change scenario, year and period at the beginning of the jlf file and reload it through the "Load journals" menu.
Hope this is clear and helpful.
Lionel.

Clear table should delete the earlier journal template, when you save the new one.
I hope it works for you too.

Can't open 1 document created using travel journal template

Since installing Snow Leopard yesterday I found out I can't open this one file I created using the travel journal template. All other Pages '09 files are fine. I just get this error message telling me Pages had to close my document "unexpectedly".
*"Pages quit unexpectedly while using the SFWordProcessing plug-in"*
Don't see why it would need to use this plug-in. And I don't recall choosing this plug-in. There must be a way around this. To open this file by turning off that plug-in perhaps. Unless it's absolutely necessary when using the templates. Or the "travel journal" template.

Error message when we try to save a journal template / table

Could anybody help us?
Attached you find the error message , when we tried to save a journal template:
We're using BPC Microsoft Version 7.5.104

Check and make sure that you can visit http:[server]/reports, for the reporting server. Does that work? If yes, I would make sure your DB has the APPSET_EXTRA database in addition to the APPSET in SQL DB. Also, when you process the Applications, via MOdify (full process), does it fail on step 8?
I have seen this before and it seems to be related to getting the structure correct for the Reports and reporting services. Hope this helps.

Service Account Management through Request Templates

Hi,
I am trying to implement Service Account lifecycle use cases (Create, Modify, Delete) on 2 resources(AD User, iPlanet User) through Request templates. In this case OOTB tasks - Service Account Alert, Service Account Changed, Service Account Moved with resource specific Process definitions are not get triggered as I am initiating process through Request Templates.
I want to trigger post process EventHandler upon triggering any of these events. so, I created metadata xml file as the following and imported it into MDS.
-----------------EventHandler Metadata file------------------------
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<eventhandlers>
<action-handler class="com.wipro.sdf.iam.oim.plugin.ServiceAccountCreationEventHandler" entity-type="Resource" operation="PROVISION" name="ServiceAccountCreateEventHandler" stage="postprocess" order="1021" sync="TRUE"/>
</eventhandlers>
----------------------------XXX----------------------------------------------
When I trigger create event of SA on any of the resources, the EventHandler is being invoked and from execute() method, Orchestration is giving the following data
{UD_IPNT_USR_LAST_NAME=TestTwo, BENEFICIARYKEY=798, UD_IPNT_USR_COMMON_NAME=SA Test Two, *ResourceKey*=12, serviceaccount=true, UD_IPNT_USR_SA_ADMIN=USER16TE, UD_IPNT_USR_USERID=SATEST2, UD_IPNT_USR_FIRST_NAME=SAccount}
My EventHandler has to do some actions on target resource(AD / iPlanet),so I would like to get resource connection details like IP, port , admin login details etc.
To fetch those details, I am using ResourceKey that is coming from Orchestration.
When I use the following code to find Resource details based on Key, its throwing resource not found exception.
-----------------------Code from execute() of EventHandler----------------------
String resKey = getParamaterValue(parameters, "ResourceKey");
tcITResourceInstanceOperationsIntf resInsObj = Platform.getService(tcITResourceInstanceOperationsIntf.class);
//Get Resource Details based on Resource Key
HashMap searchMap= new HashMap();
searchMap.put(Constants.IT_RESOURCE_KEY, resKey);
logger.debug(methodName+" - IT Resouece Search Map is : "+searchMap);
tcResultSet resultSet = resInsObj.findITResourceInstances(searchMap);
-------------------------------End of code ------------------------------------------------
I tried finding for the table which stores all IT Resource connection details. But no luck.
Now my questions are:
1. Which table stores all IT Resource Information that can be seen from Design Console -> Resource Management -> IT Resource Type Definition - > Resource?
2. Which table stores Resource Key and Name details?
3. When we do query for records from any form in Design Console, where exactly would logs get recorded? (as it queries DB to fetch information there should some file like DB Tracer Log etc)
Could somebody please answer these questions and give some hint to implement SA management through Req Templates?
Thank you in advance,
Mounika

Hi kevin,
thanks for reply.
i am thinking that, Even though OIM11G is developed in ADF,some parts of the code is in struts only,like xlWebApp.war .
i have seen source code of xlWebApp.war folder that is there in OIM11g.
it seems to be developed in struts only.
is there any ADF interaction in that?
i have written helloworld program in struts,that is working fine.
i have done that,for ADUser resource popup i added button "serviceaccount for this resource".when i click that one jsp page will come.
so i am thinking that,some other reason is there for not working.
can u please tell me the reason?

Recepient type not updating in entries posted through F-54

We have a scenario as follows
1. First we have made advance payment to vendor through F-48 with TDS posting.
2. We received 4 bills against these advance payment and we booked these bills with TDS posting.
3. We have used F-54 T-Code to nullify the TDS effect in FB60 and to process open item of FB60 against the advance payment through F-48.
Now it working fine while open item clearance ( there is 1Re.diff which we are rounding up).
But while making TDS payment through J1INCHLN two of the entries posted through F-54 ( KA Documents ) are not getting picked up as a result there is differenc between total TDS payable & what is shown in J1INCHLN open items.
On checking in WITH_ITEM table it is found that Receipent type is not updating for these particular entries.
Additional observation : we have three tds codes for basic, surcharge & E cess and three seperate line items are generated for each while posting TDS. It is observed that for these particular invoices as the amount is in hundreds the E cess amt is less than Re.1 so the only two line items are created i.e. Basic & Surchage.
Please guide us for solving this.
Thanks & Regars,
Chandrakant

Hi,
You have to check two tables :
T059C for Receipient types for country IN whether all the WH Types are maintained for CO and OT.
V_T001RWT - WHT Rounding Rules - normally it will be 100 for INR (min Re.1) you may have to change it.

Hi Dzmitry,

We have already tried to download the journal template and insert our logo. The problem is that the journal template is protected and we do not have the password.
