China Localization Overview

To use the China Localization, the ChinaCountryPack license module must be included in your CloudSuite Business license. The China Localization features described in this section are enabled for an individual site when you enable ChinaCountryPack on the Optional Modules form at that site.

These base CloudSuite Business forms have changes to their functionality when the module is enabled:

  • Accounting Periods: The current accounting period must be set in accordance with the transaction date of the Chinese voucher.
  • Mass Journal Posting and Ledger Posting for Journal: On these forms, these fields are disabled:
    • Compress Journal Before Post
    • Delete Transaction After Post
    • Single Date to All Entries

    You must run the Add CH-GL Voucher utility for the distribution journals. Otherwise the journals cannot be posted to the General Ledger.

  • Journal Compress: A/R, A/P and writable journal IDs cannot be compressed. For other journal IDs, only the journal entries with the same account number and/or reporting unit, transaction date, and CH-GL voucher number can be compressed together. The control number is not eliminated after a journal is compressed. The consecutive journal entries for the same date have the same control number.
  • Journal Entries and G/L Posted Transactions: On these forms, these fields are added:
    • CHGL Voucher Number
    • Line Number
    • Rubric, which indicates whether a rubric is applied to the voucher
  • Purge Journals: On this form, any Chinese journals that meet the criteria are also deleted.
  • Rebalance Ledger Period Total: When the ChinaCountryPack module is enabled, period total records are created that contain the sum of the transactions for a specific period.
  • Journal Resequencing: On this form, the sequencing of Chinese journals is also reset.

When the China Localization module is enabled, many additional forms are available under Optional Modules > China Localization in the  Explorer menu.
