Transaction Template Lines (tfgld0113m000)

Use this session to maintain the transaction template line details for the transaction template selected in the Transaction Templates (tfgld0512m000) session.

You must enter:

  • The ledger account and the dimensions to which the transaction must be posted.
  • The part of the main transaction amount that must be posted for this transaction line. Depending on the transaction template type, you must specify the part of the main transaction amount as an amount, a percentage, or a factor.

 

Transaction Template

A set of entries created (generated and repeated) to distribute a transaction across a number of ledger accounts and dimensions. For example, you can distribute the recurring purchase invoices for general supplies across a number of departments or work centers. The set of transactions is automatically linked to the document.

Line

The line number uniquely identifies the transaction template line. For each allocation transaction that you define for the transaction template, LN generates a line number.

Entry
Target Company

The financial company in which the transaction must be posted.

You can enter transactions for each of the financial companies of the company group.

Ledger Account

The ledger account to which this part of the main transaction amount must be posted.

Contra Account

The ledger account to be considered as contra account. You must specify the contra account when you create the transaction template line for the first time. For the subsequent lines Infor LN defaults the Ledger Account and the Contra Account. This defaulting mechanism is based on the standard defaulting mechanism of Infor LN which always tries to set the balance of the transaction template to zero. Related topics Standard Algorithm

If in the intercompany transactions, where the user creates a line with the target company different from the current company, the contra account of this line is automatically set to the proper intercompany account.

If you save a transaction template for which the balance amount is equal to zero, Infor LN checks for each line if the contra account is used as a ledger account in the same transaction template. If not used, Infor LN displays a message ‘Contra Account in Line # is not used in Transaction Schedule #’. This does not apply to inter-company accounts.

Note

This field is available only if the Report Contra Accounts check box is selected in the Finance Company Parameters (tfgld0503m000)

Dimension

The dimension to which this part of the main transaction amount must be posted.

Tax Code

A code that identifies the tax rate and which determines how LN calculates and registers tax amounts.

The tax code identifies the tax rate and determines how LN calculates the tax amount for transaction template line.
