How it works...

When you set up AAIs for Sales Order Management, the system integrates the order management system with the general ledger object accounts that determine how to allocate amounts that are linked to general ledger entries that the system generates. The financial system creates journal entries based on the AAI setup. The AAIs that you set up should have distinctive grouping of the company, document type, GL category, and transactions that you want to use. The AAIs that have been linked with precise general ledger object accounts, which consist of business unit, object, and subsidiary. If taxation is enabled on customer invoices, then you should allocate the tax amounts to the correct GL accounts. When you set up AAIs for a precise kind of tax, such as Value Added Tax or Sales Tax, you should specify which accounts you want to debit and credit for an invoice tax amount.

There's more...

The system stores AAIs in the Distribution/Manufacturing — AAI table (F4095). The AAI set-up is used for accounting/general ledger integration.
