Transactions vs. Accounting

SLA provides a distinction between a transaction and the accounting representation of the transaction

– Accounting distributions did not necessarily go away• Needed for upgrade customers

• Needed as starting point for SLA (Don’t want to force customers to define their own SLA rules)

• In some cases, necessary to allow user input

– Most default SLA rules just ‘pass through’ the distribution accounts (where applicable)accounts (where applicable)

– If you modify SLA rules, the ultimate accounting entry may not match the distributions.

– OK because distribution accounts are just defaults

Third Party Control Accounts

– Certain accounts can be identified as control

Third Party Control Accounts

Certain accounts can be identified as control accounts. In this case:• You cannot enter manual adjustments against these j g

accounts in General Ledger

• SLA maintains balances for these accounts by third party

– This typically only applies to balance sheet accounts

Supporting References

Transaction attributes can be identified as supporting references and stored on journal entries. In this case:• SLA maintains subledger balances for each supporting

reference value and account.

– This can apply to balance sheet as well as income statement accounts. In the latter case, subledger balances are reset automatically at fiscal year endbalances are reset automatically at fiscal year end.
