Purpose

Overview

Each time you enter a transaction for which the system creates journal entries, the system needs to locate the appropriate account numbers. It does this by reviewing the AAI table for codes that correspond to the transaction. For example, AAIs direct the system to the accounts receivable trade account to debit when you post invoices or the correct bank account to debit when you post receipts.

The name of an AAI item, such as RC, is hard-coded. AAI items for Accounts Receivable always start with the letter 'R'. For example, RC is the AAI item for the receivables class (trade) account, and RB is for the receivables bank account. Each AAI item has account codes consisting of a business unit (optional for some AAIs - see note below), an object, and optionally, a subsidiary, which are mapped to the chart of accounts.

Scope

This document is intended for EnterpriseOne users who are setting up the Accounts Receivable module for use within their organization, or troubleshooting errors related to AAIs.
