Configuration
Sub Ledger Journal Entry Consists of 3 Components
Line Type, Line Description and Account derivation rule

Configuration
Accounting Methods Builder ( AMB ) Used to create and Modify Sub ledger Journal line set ups and application
accounting Definitions. AMB includes the following features
• Accounting options that determine different characteristics of the journal entry
• Descriptions that appear on the sub ledger journal header and lines which provide additional information about the journal entry. For example, a sub ledger journal entry created for a Payables invoice can show the supplier name and invoice number.
• Account derivation rules to construct the accounts for a sub ledger journal entry line. Users define various rules in the AMB to determine how a journal entry account is derived. Users can derive accounts segment by segment or as a complete Accounting Flexfield.
• Conditions that determine when sub ledger journal entry accounts and lines are created. Some accounts can be used to create a journal entry only in certain circumstances. For example, an asset account can only be used when the Assets flag for an invoice distribution is enabled through the Oracle Payables Invoices window
