Use of a custom source to derive an account based in the first segment of an Items inventory class flexfield A worked example

using a PO Receiving Transaction Introduction This is a preliminary document issued by Oracle Process Manufacturing upport in an attempt to answer the !uestion " #$hen I am setting up an Account %erivation Rule &A%R' in ubledger Accounting & (A) *(A') how can I map an Account or Accounting +lexfield egment to an Item Attribute which is not directly available from the transaction being processed,# A common re!uirement is to map the Inventory -aluation &I.-' Account by Item /ategory) which is not a parameter that is available in the seeded 0 ource0 (ist of -alues1 Please note that in addition to the ubledger Accounting setup screens) in order to make use of the information in this document you will re!uire the necessary privileges to create a P(2 3( Procedure as the 0APP 0 3(4Plus username) and will also need a working knowledge of how the Item and Transaction database tables link together1
