Advanced Global Intercompany setup – AGIS in Oracle EBS Part I

    Advanced Global Intercompany System (AGIS) enables you to create, settle and reconcile intercompany transactions.

Intercompany transactions are transactions that occur between two related legal entities in an enterprise or between groups in the same legal entity. Transactions that occur between two legal entities are called intercompany transactions and transactions that occur between two groups within one legal entity are called intracompany transactions.
    The balances of the intercompany transactions must be eliminated or adjusted when preparing the consolidated financial statement, or it might result in overstated financial results, which in turn might lead to legal repercussions against the enterprise. Intercompany transactions can be identified and eliminated by the use of specific accounts to book these transactions. Defining these accounts allows you to book transactions that are identified as intercompany transactions in the specific accounts. These accounts must be defined as a part of the General Ledger setup process.
