Accounting unit structures

If you select accounting units for your finance structure, you must create at least one accounting unit structure for your accounting entities. This must include an accounting unit hierarchy for each accounting entity. You can create multiple accounting unit structures. One structure must be an enterprise hierarchy that is used as the default accounting unit structure on reporting basis.

The accounting unit hierarchy is unique to each accounting entity. When a new accounting unit structure is created, a hierarchy must be created for each accounting entity using the structure.

To view all accounting unit structures and their associated hierarchies, and the reporting bases that use them, select Global Ledger > Setup > Finance Enterprise Group > Structure Compare > Accounting Unit.
