WHAT IS ACCOUNTING CONVENTION, WHY WILL WE USE IT

Answer Posted / seshasai

Accounting Convention which is nothing but subledger
accounting. It is the additional feature introduced in R12

For Eg. If the company in India is primary company and it
has branch at US which we can treat as secondary or subsidary,

1) In us its functional currency is USD which differs with
Primary country functional currency,
2) In US Calander is from 01-jan to 31-dec and in Primary
company Calander is 01-APR TO 31-MAR
3)BASED ON PRIMARY COMPANY REQUIREMENT ACCOUNTS ARE CREATED
AND SAME WAY SECONDARY COMPANY ALSO HAVING ITS OWN ACCOUNTS
KEY FLEXI FIELDS

In the above three conditions also we can make a
consolidated Trial Balance
In Oracle Terminology 4Cs in R12 so, we are using it. This
is my understanding, if there is any difference please let
me know.

I have created an invoice and made the payment in Accounts payable. Now the payment status is Negotiable and accounting status is processed. I reconciled the transaction in Cash Mgmt, The status changed from negotiable to Reconciled in CM. I checked the payment status for the invoice in payment window(AP), the payment status changed to RECONCILED UNACCOUNTED i.e correct but the accounting status is remain processed which is not the correct. I hope the transaction will be correct if the accounting status would have changed to PERTIAL . Please suggest any solution for the above query.
