Federal Program Agencies (FPAs) reporting to the Financial Management Service (FMS) must begin reporting trial balance data to the Governmentwide Treasury Account Symbol Adjusted Trial Balance System (GTAS) beginning with fiscal year 2014.

The Case for Changing your E-Business Suite Chart of Accounts using FlexField
Significantly improve your financial and managerial reporting The effects of rapid and ongoing business changes can result in outgrowing your EBS chart of accounts. Your business looks very different than it did when you originally implemented your COA. Now, there is a gap between your chart of accounts and how you need to track your business. The short-term solution for most companies is multiple"fix"spreadsheets to bridge the gaps and create usable financial and managerial information. The costs in time and effort to prepare, check, maintain, and update these"fix"spreadsheets is high and these costs compound period after period.
With FlexField you can easily change your chart of accounts to match your business structure streamlining your financial and managerial reporting processes to save time and effort and reduce costly errors.
Meet Regulatory and Exchange Mandated Requirements IFRS, SOX, new tax legislation, and other regulatory changes have resulted in chart of accounts shortcomings for many companies. Required changes in reporting categories and classifications that are not accommodated in the existing chart of accounts structure can result in significant record-keeping workarounds. Residing in spreadsheets, paper files, and ancillary databases, this re-categorized information has to be reconciled and checked to EBS transaction records. Multiple entries of the same data, error checking, and ongoing revisions result in continual costs in time and effort, a lack of controls, and no transparency for drill-downs and rollups.
Using FlexField you can easily modify your chart of accounts to meet regulatory and exchange mandated requirements and eliminate many ongoing costs.
Implement a Global Chart of Accounts to Take Advantage of Secondary Ledgers, Ledger Sets, and Other R12 Functionality
EBS Release 12 introduces powerful new features to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of your transactional, informational, and reporting processes.
Among the most powerful enhancements are ledger sets and secondary ledgers. Use of ledger sets can dramatically improve processing efficiencies
by enabling opening and closing periods and reporting across multiple ledgers simultaneously. (Sets of books become ledgers in Release 12). However, the

FUND
In order to use Oracle's Advanced Global Intercompany System (AGIS), you must have a single chart of accounts that includes an intercompany segment. Global companies that want to take advantage of secondary ledgers in R12 will want to create a primary ledger with a global COA and then define create accounting rules to record transactions in other currencies and or to use different accounting methods. Having a single chart of accounts reduces complexity, streamlines the create accounting rules, and enables efficient use of subledger accounting features. Effectively using secondary ledgers increases transparency and compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements like IFRS.

FlexField software can easily transform your multiple charts of accounts into a global chart of accounts unlocking the full functionality of Release 12's most powerful efficiency-enhancing new features.
Stream-line transaction processing, reduce errors, and decrease user support costs
The mantra for all efficient and effective organizations is do more with less--for the world-class organizations, the expectation is to do more with less and do it better. Having an effective and efficient record-keeping and transaction processing system is key to organizational performance. A legacy chart of accounts or different charts of accounts within your EBS instance can lead to significant slower transactional processing due to different recording schemas for similar transactions. When companies had the luxury of dedicated accountants for each legal entity, this was manageable. But streamlined operations mean centralized accounting where a single accounting group may be processing transactions for several legal entities. Oracle has recognized the need to post transactions efficiently in multiple organizations by introducing multi-org processing. But if there are different chart of accounts for each of the legal entities, costly errors can occur due to confusion. At a minimum, the effort to record transactions is hampered as accountants have to refer to "cross-walk"documents created to outline how similar transactions need to be processed differently due to chart of accounts differences.
For companies providing centralized support for their accounting and EBS users staff, support personnel have to be trained to explain how to process a similar transaction many different ways to accommodate multiple charts of accounts.
FlexField software can allow you to create a global chart of accounts for all legal entities standardizing data and transaction processing, take full advantage of R12 multi-org capabilities, and reduced support costs.

"eprentise software is fundamental to our transformational efforts. Without it we probably could not align back office Finance processes the way we want without much larger costs, and we would have to do more DW/BI development for Management Reporting to make the data common. Instead the data will be common already coming into the warehouse."
