The document discusses the Oracle GL Interface, detailing how the gl_interface table facilitates the import of journal entries from external and internal systems into the Oracle General Ledger. It outlines the process for creating, importing, and reviewing journal entries, as well as correcting any errors, while also describing the data model and various tables involved. Additionally, it mentions the Applications Desktop Integrator (ADI) tool which allows data interfacing and analysis through spreadsheets.
Oracle Gl Interface
- 1. Oracle GL Interface Introduction The journal Import interface uses the GL_INTERFACE table as a bridge between external systems and the Oracle General Ledger base tables. For each journal line that needs to be imported, a single record is inserted into GL_INTERFACE table. Standard GL Interface Process Create journals in feeder systems and upload them to Oracle General Ledger using Journal Import Import journal entries from feeder systems – Third Party Systems - Billing, Banking etc. – Oracle Sub-ledgers - AP, AR,Payroll – Includes statistical information - airtime, customers Review journal import data Correct and delete journal import data For transfers initiated from Oracle subledgers, the system automatically populates the GL_INTERFACE table, and then starts the journal import process. GL Data Model GL_JE_BATCHES Journal Batches GL_JE_HEADERS Journals GL_JE_LINES Journal Lines GL_BALANCES Balances for every code combination, currency and period
- 2. A journal batch is a group of related journals that are posted together. The period in which the journals belong is stored at batch level. Each journal in a batch gives rise to a separate record in the GL_JE_HEADERS A journal is a group of journal lines that balance. The sum of the debits is equal to the sum of credits. The currency code is stored at the journal level. The GL_JE_LINES table holds a record for each journal line. The lines record the accounted amounts, either debit or credit, and the account code combination that the amount will be posted to.
