Oracle Planning 2017 Implementation Essentials — Question 49

You want to have an invoice line automatically distributed across multiple cost centers. For example, you want your monthly utility bill allocated across multiple cost centers based on a percentage.
Select two methods to achieve this.

Answer options

• A. Customize the Subledger Accounting rules to allocate costs.
• B. Define a distribution set and assign it manually to the invoice.
• C. Enter the invoice in Payables and then use general ledger’s Calculation Manager to allocate the costs.
• D. Define a distribution set and assign it to the supplier.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct methods are A and B. Customizing Subledger Accounting rules allows for automatic allocation based on predefined criteria, while defining a distribution set and assigning it manually to the invoice facilitates specific cost center distribution. Options C and D do not provide the automatic allocation needed, as they rely on other processes or linkages that do not directly apply to invoice line distribution.
