To set up account matching

To set up account matching, perform the following steps:

In the Finance Company Parameters (tfgld0503m000) session, on the Concepts tab, ensure that the Account Matching check box is selected.
In the Account Matching Parameters (tfgld1161m000) session, specify defaults for account matching master data, user authorizations, and processing.
In the Account Matching Properties (tfgld1557m000) session, define account matching properties.
In the Chart of Accounts (tfgld0508m000) session, on the Miscellaneous tab, in the Account Matching Properties field, enter the account matching properties that you defined for the current company.
In the Account Matching Authorization Schemes (tfgld1553m000) session, define at least one account matching authorization scheme.

Note: If, for all financial companies, you only define users of type Super User, you can skip the next step.
In the Ledger Account Matching Schemes (tfgld1555m000) session, define at least one ledger account matching scheme.
In the Account Matching Users (tfgld1152m000) session, assign the appropriate authorization and ledger account matching schemes to users.
If required, run the Rebuild History for Account Matching (tfgld1218m000) session.
If you are upgrading from the previous account matching functionality to the new account matching functionality, run the Convert Existing Account Matching to New Account Matching (tfgld1216m100) session.
Before you can start using automatic account matching, you must have sufficient matchable data. When that is the case, perform the following steps:
- In the Automatic Account Matching Criteria Codes (tfgld1562m000) session, define at least one automatic account matching criteria code.
- In the Automatic Account Matching Criteria Sets (tfgld1559m000) session, define at least one automatic account matching criteria set.
If you are upgrading from the previous GL account matching functionality, run the Convert Existing Account Matching to New Account Matching (tfgld1216m100) session.
