MPA SET UP: To enable Multi-Period Accounting, following are required: a) JLT for which amounts have to split

over periods. (Actual JLT) b) JLT for which amounts need to be recognized in future periods.(Recognition JLT) Ex: When a Invoice Distribution (3000) is accounted with 1-JAN-2009 as Event Date i) Without MPA Set Up, following accounting would be generated: ITEM EXPENSE LIABILITY JAN-09 JAN-09 3000(DR) 3000(CR)

ii) With MPA Set up, following accounting would be generated: ITEM EXPENSE JAN-09 3000(DR) LIABILITY JAN-09 3000(CR) which is the regular accounting as seen also from (I), along with above, following is genarated , which is a MPA Accounting. RENT ITEM EXPENSE RENT ITEM EXPENSE RENT ITEM EXPENSE JAN-09 JAN-09 FEB-09 FEB-09 MAR-09 MAR-09 1000(DR) 1000(CR) 1000(DR) 1000(CR) 1000(DR) 1000(CR)

So, in the above example, RENT is the RECOGNITION JLT and ITEM EXPENSE is ACTUAL JLT. Please find below the steps for MPA Set Up: a) Create the Actual JLT by chosing the Multiperiod Option as ACTUAL. b) Create the Recognition JLT by chosing the Multiperiod Option as RECOGNITION. c) Create a New JLD and assign the Actual JLT to the JLD. d) At this point, Multiperiod Accounting Button would be enabled. e) Click on Multiperiod Accounting Button and chose the Proration method. f) Click on Line Assignments button to assign the Recognition JLT. g) Assign the created Recognition JLT along with the ADRs. h) Validate the JLD . On validation, the created JLD can now be assigned to AAD and then SLAM
