China Localization Overview

The China Localization module is installed with CloudSuite Business. However, it must be enabled for individual sites through the [Optional Modules] form. The China Localization features are then available at that site for users with a valid ChinaCountryPack license.

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 module is enabled, an additional stored procedure creates period total records 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.
