| Advanced General Ledger Allocation Training |
| 1: How to loop currency in allocation rule ? |
| 2: Is there any upper limit of number of values of currency that can be looped in a rule ? |
| 3: Can the accounting date be looped in the rule ? |
| 4: Can the scenario/balance type dimension be looped in the rule ? |
| 5: Creating rule for recurring journals for coming 10 periods where a source pool is allocated to a target account |
| 6: How to create a run time variable for accounting period ? |
| 7: How is accounting date calculated for allocation journals ? |
| 8: Using all DR and CR period activity balances with @Level0Descendants? |
| 9: Allocation rule having same target and offset range, using dummy offset |
| 10: How to create formula rule having parent account in source value and same has to be used in offset. |
| 11: Creation of allocation rule, where we have single target line to be generated with multiple offset lines. |
| 12: How can a specific segment in offset be changed on the basis of source in allocation rule? |
| 13: How can a cross ledger allocation be created for elimination ? |
| 14: How can one-to many allocation rule be created |
| 15: How can many to many Inter Company allocation rule be created ? |
| 16: How can target value in cross ledger allocation be selected, when there is no specific target? |
| 17: How can multiple company segments under one ledger be used to create a rule ? |
| 18: Selecting more than one parent account in the source definition? |
| 19: Generate allocation journal based on a fixed percentage ? |
| B) Complex Allocation Rule Design |
| 1:Allocation required based on headcount (which is further to be calculated based on a formula) |
| 2:Allocate a specific percentage of source to range of departments, with fixed offset |
| 3:How to run the Allocation Based on the Previous Period Balances? |
| 4:Is it possible to allocate balance for the end of the year to the next period? |
| 5:Can allocation be executed on Daily balances ? |
| 6:How to allocate amounts separately on the basis of positive and negative amounts ? |
| 7:Allocate foreign currency balances to a functional currency |
| 8:Can conditional expressions on entered amount be used in allocation rule? |
| 9:Generating allocation with 0 entered amount and nonzero accounted amount |
| 10:Selecting child values on basis of conditions applicable on parent values (like selecting largest amount of child values included in the parent)? |
| 11:Generating Allocation Journals In Incremental Method In Fusion? |
| 12:Creating allocation journal entry (in two currencies) |
| 13:Summarizing data based on each AFF2 to another specific account for each AFF2? |
| C) Questions on running allocation |
| 1: When allocation is in Running status for long and is stuck in cancelling |
| 2: With Post Journals in such a way that next allocation is run only when prior journals are posted |
| 3: Is it possible to run Generate Allocations in parallel ? |
| 4: Creating a job set to avoid overwriting of values for same target |
| 5: How to use the first allocation rule generated balance in subsequent rule ? |
| 6: What role/privilege is required to deploy an allocation rule ? |
| 7: Calling allocation process using web service |
| D) Rounding, Basis and Exclude options |
| 1: If there is no rate defined, and roll over of existing rate is also not allowed ? |
| 2: When rounding is explicitly given in the rule ? |
| 3: When there is no rounding decimal specified in the allocation rule ? |
| 4: When basis is selected evenly ? |
| 5: When a natural combination is specified as basis ? |
| 6: Does Exclude Account option work in allocation wizard ? |
| 7: How does scenario "Total For Allocations" work ? |
| 8: How does "Allocate Evenly" works for allocation wizard ? |
| 9: Is it possible to generate allocation based on journal source or category ? |
