Use
In these IMG activities, you make the settings to ensure that when the system adjusts a G/L account for inflation, it posts the inflation adjustment amounts to the correct G/L accounts. This involves the following activities:
- Create the inflation adjustment accounts
- Specify, for each G/L account to be adjusted, which inflation adjustment accounts are to be used
Types of Accounts
When you adjust a G/L account, you typically post the inflation adjustment amount to the same account, and record the offsetting entry to an inflation gain or loss account. But there are more possibilities, as follows.
- Inflation gain and loss accounts
You can post the inflation gain or loss to different accounts depending on whether you made the adjustment using a general inflation index or a specific index. You can also use separate accounts for adjustments made using provisional inflation indexes, again, with different accounts for general and specific inflation adjustments.
- Contra accounts
By default, the system posts the inflation adjustment amounts to the G/L account that has been adjusted. However, if you need to, you can record them separately, on a contra account. Again, you can define separate accounts for adjustments made using general and specific indexes respectively.
Requirements
Standard settings
Activities
In this activity, create a G/L account for each inflation adjustment account you need.
When you set up inflation adjustment accounts for accounts receivable and accounts payable in local currency, you must ensure that they allow postings with tax codes.
When you set up the accounts for open accounts receivable and accounts payable in foreign currency, ensure that they allow postings without tax codes, since taxes are not supported by the Inflation Adjustment of Open Items in Foreign Currency program.
If you want to assign inflation adjustment amounts to cost centers, you must assign the inflation adjustment accounts a field status that allows cost centers.
