Basics of Accounting in Oracle ERP/EBS

I would like to provide input about accounting concepts to Oracle Consultants and as a First step I prepared the attached Document for the benefit of Oracle Community Members who are not aware of Accounting.

The Document below is Level I of Accounting with reference to Oracle set up like Business Group, Set Of Book, Legal Entity etc.
I will also prepare Advanced level Document and then buid a Test case for Mapping the following in Oracle Applications
a) Loading of Opening Balances
b) Create Transactions in Procure to Pay, Manufacturing and Order to Cash Cycle for a Confectionery Industry and the Accounting Transactions.
c) Get the Closing Trial balance and Financial Statements from the system

Hi Radhika

Please can you elaborate your requirement so that I can think of some solution.

If your intention is to call a pl/sql, then a post notification pl/sql can be attached to Notification activity of the workflow

Thanks
Anil Passi
