GL Budget Interface

Interface Table

GL_BUDGET_INTERFACE is used to upload budget data into your Oracle General Ledger application from an external source. Each row includes one fiscal year’s worth of budget amounts for an account. When you load this table, you must supply all NOT NULL columns with data. In addition, you must supply a valid account combination in the SEGMENT columns appropriate to your chart of accounts. Finally, you must supply the budget amounts in the appropriate AMOUNT columns.

The mandatory (not null) columns of the Interface table are,

• BUDGET_NAME
• BUDGET_ENTITY_NAME (the budget organization)
• CURRENCY_CODE
• FISCAL_YEAR
• UPDATE_LOGIC_TYPE (A for Add, R for Replace)

Other important columns are,

• SET_OF_BOOKS_ID
• BUDGET_VERSION_ID
• PERIOD1_AMOUNT through PERIOD60_AMOUNT
• SEGMENT1 through SEGMENT30

Validations

• Account Segments(Code Combination in GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS Table)

To upload a budget

1. Navigate to the Upload Budget window (Budgets > Enter > Upload).
2. Enter the Budget and Budget Organization.
