Last updated on JUNE 20, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle Payroll - Version 12.2.6 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Payroll was run that included elements that are set up for distributed costing. After Costing was run, it was found in the Costing Summary Report that the debits and credits for the distributed amounts are out of balance by one or a few cents.

This imbalance can cause errors when running Create Accounting or Journal Import concurrent requests.

Note: The imbalance can be seen anywhere the user can see Costing results, not just the Costing Summary Report.  This was given as the easiest way to see the results of the Costing process.


The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

From XX HRMS Manager responsibility:
1. Run Payroll process.
     Navigate: Processes and Reports > Submit Processes and Reports > Single Request

2. Run Costing process
     Navigate: Processes and Reports > Submit Processes and Reports > Single Request

3. Run Costing Summary Report
     Navigate: Processes and Reports > Submit Processes and Reports > Single Request

4. Review Costing Summary Report output and find that debits do not equal credits.
