FLEX FIELDS?

Answer Posted / sara

As the name says, it is a flexible field with multiple
segments. There are two types of flex fields in oracle
apps. 1. Key flex field and 2. Descriptive flexi field.

Key flex fields are mandatory fields whereas descriptive
flex fields are not mandatory and used to store some values
for reporting purpose.

Key Flexi field Example - Accounting flexi field, Location
flexi field.

Accounting flexi field contains 30 segments with 25 char
each.

Some accounting flex field value examples are
1. Account code(seg1)-Costcenter(seg2)-product code
2. Account code(seg1)-department(seg2)

Refer to Oracle documentation-GL manual/AR Manual for more
details
