MonthEnd Close
Oracle applications provide an integrated information warehouse and at the same time each application has its own processes and
reports. In addition, each Oracle application has its own accounting calendar, so each Oracle applications can be in different accounting
periods. There is a correct order to close each application into the General Ledger and the order can be broken down into two sequences
that can be run concurrently, or either one following the other. The closing of the General Ledger is always the last step in the monthend
close cycle. The reason for this order is based on the integration between Oracle applications. The suggested order of closing the
applications is as follows: 2 9 6 0 6 2 4
SEQ Application SEQ Application LABELS
1a Order Entry 2a Accounts Payable 11i(34)
1b Receivables 2b Purchasing ABSENCE(5)
2c Fixed Assets ADI(24)
2d Inventory/WIP AIM(6)
3 General Ledger Transfers from all subsystems can be performed in summary or detailed transactions. It is suggested that journal entries ALERTS(10)
come over to the General Ledger in summary and that detailed information stay in the subsystems. Reports containing detailed AME(18)
transactions are located in the subsystems and should be run when additional analysis is needed for the General Ledger. AOL(152)
AP(198)
Closing a Period
API(40)
The final step is to close the accounting period in each of the above modules and open the new accounting period. Reports can still be run
OracleAp
APPLICATIONS(20)
for periods that are closed and permanently closed, however no entries can be entered or posted for these periods. The main difference 5.4Klikes
AR(157)
between closing a period and permanently closing a period is that a permanently closed period can NEVER be reopened.

Transfer Accounts Receivable Transactions to the General Ledger


Run the General Ledger interface program to transfer all of your receivables transactions to your General Ledger and create a
summarized journal batch. You determine which transactions to transfer by specifying a General Ledger date range. The transfer process
submits several processes. The first process is the actual
General Ledger transfer. The second process creates accounting transactions for items that have deferred revenue. The third process
updates posting controls. Next, a process for unposted items to the General Ledger is run. This process and report will identify any items

that could not be transfer to the General Ledger and the reason why. Last, Oracle will run the journal import process to validate account
combinations.

Purchasing

Oracle Purchasing supports the accrual of expense purchases at the time of receipt, or at periodend. In
general, manufacturing and distribution companies most often accrue inventory receipts at the time of
receiving, while nonmanufacturing organizations and expense items for manufacturing and distribution
companies are generally accrue receipts at period end. The closing process will be different based on the
accrual processes done both types of accrual recognition will be discussed.
Note: In order for Oracle to support the accrual process, purchases orders must be set up for 3way
matching.
Make sure you have already closed the Payables period before moving on to the Purchasing section of this
document. The Oracle Purchasing period should be closed before the Inventory period is closed.

Item purchases are not accrued. When items are accrued, a temporary Accounts Payable liability is
recorded to the expense or inventory AP accrual accounts. When Payables matches and approves the
invoice, Payables clears the AP accrual accounts and records the liability from the supplier site, therefore, if
capital items are accrued they will not be transferred to Assets via mass transfer. This report helps monitor
potential problems with Purchasing and Receiving activities that can affect the accuracy of the AP accrual
accounts.

See the General Ledger section of this document to create the journal entry for Purchasing.
Note: Receiving transactions are automatically loaded into the GL Interface table.
Also Note: Remember to reverse all of the prior months accrual of expense entries.

Reconcile Purchasing / Receiving to the General Ledger


At this point, the Purchasing/Receiving month end report have been run and issues in Purchasing/Receiving
identified. In addition, Purchasing/Receiving transactions have been transferred, imported, and posted to
the General Ledger. Now, receiving inspection values, purchase price variance, and invoice price variance
can be reconciled to the General Ledger. Additional discrepancies between Purchasing/Receiving and the
General Ledger will require a manual journal entry.

Reconcile Purchase Price Variance


Purchase Price Variance is distributed to the General Ledger when you perform the General Ledger
transfer, or period close. To reconcile Purchase Price Variance to the General Ledger, compare the ending
balance of the Purchase Price Variance report with the corresponding value in the General Ledger. The last
page of the Purchase Price Variance Report gives the PPV balance total.
Note: the Purchase Price Variance for the given period. Then, reconcile this amount to the General Ledger
by Navigating to: (GL) Inquiry > Account. Enter the corresponding Accounting Period and the Purchase
Price Variance account combination hit the Show Balances button at the bottom of the screen.
When you hit the Show Balances button, the window on the right hand side of the screen shot below will
open, indicating the account balance for Purchase Price Variance. Similar to the window below:
The balance in the PTD field should equal the Report Total line given in the Purchase Price Variance
Report. At this point, the Purchase Price Variance account has been reconciled.

Reconcile Invoice Price Variance


When an invoice is approved, the Invoice Price Variance is automatically recorded to the invoice price
variance (and exchange rate variance) account(s). To reconcile Invoice Price Variance to the General
Ledger, compare the ending balance of the Invoice Price Variance report with the corresponding value in
the General Ledger. The methodology for reconciling the Invoice Price Variance to the General Ledger is
the same as used above for Purchase Price Variance reconciliation.

Reconcile Receiving Value Report by Destination Account


To reconcile receiving inspection value(s), by organization, to the General Ledger, compare the ending
balance on the Receiving Value Report by Destination Accounts with the receiving value account in the
General Ledger. The Receiving Value Report by Destination Account balance illustrates pending
inventory delivery values items that are pending receipt and have not actually been delivered into
inventory, but are nonetheless considered part of the inventory balance. This total should be compared to
the Receiving Accrual Account in the General Ledger.
Note: This is the same Receiving Accrual Account that was defined in the Receiving Options screen
during Purchasing setup.
The methodology for reconciling Receiving Value Report by Destination Account to the General Ledger is
the same as used above for Purchase Price Variance reconciliation.

Close Current Purchasing Period


The Purchasing period can now be closed.
Note: When you close a Purchasing period, Purchasing automatically unmarks all of the expense receipts
previously accrued. The unmarking of the previously accrued receipts allows the receipts to be accrued
again if they are still uninvoiced in the next period.

reconciliation process are the Cost and CIP Detailed Reports. Both reports show beginning balance,
additions, adjustments, retirements, capitalizations, reclassifications, transfers, and ending balances for
each asset. Oracle Assets compares an assets actual ending balance with a calculated ending balance and
prints an asterisk (*) in the column if there is a difference. If any differences are found, the asset system is
out of balance.

Clearing the Transaction Managers


The Oracle Transaction Managers process such items as material transactions, demand reservations, move

In the month end close process, Oracle Cost Management checks for unprocessed transactions.

Preclose Processes
There are preclose process steps that involve the Transactions Managers, and they should be performed, at
a minimum, on a monthly basis.

Clearing the Interface Managers


Interface managers are used in Oracle to complete the processing of Inventory and WIP transactions.
These concurrent processes are programs that run in the background. Processes run periodically throughout
the day to complete processing of transaction lines in the interface tables. If required information is
missing from a transaction line or if the information is incorrect, the line may process with an error. In
other words, it is hung up in the table and does not process. To remedy the situation, the wrong/missing
information can usually be fixed and the transaction line resubmitted for processing. The method of
identifying errored transaction lines is explained below. The process of analyzing and fixing problems is
usually specific to a business and the methods of operation. As a result, it is not discussed here. The
analysis and remedy of a problem with the Interface Manager requires an extensive understanding of
Oracle functionality and problem solving ability. At a minimum, the interface tables must be checked and
cleared out monthly before closing the inventory period(s).

Open Interface Transactions


The Open Interface provides two services. One, it provides an open interface that can be used to easily
load transactions from external applications. And two, this interface is used as an integration point with
Oracle Order Entry. Order Entrys Inventory Interface program populates the interface table with
transactions submitted through the Ship Confirm form. The Transaction Open Interface screen allows you
to view, edit, and resubmit transactions received through the Transactions Open Interface.
Navigation: (CST) View Transactions > Transactions Open Interface.
Enter the Organization. The Process Flag can be Yes for processed transactions, No for unprocessed
transactions, or Error for errored transactions only. No and Error are important to check at monthend.
Enter a value in the Process Flag field and click on Find.
The other alternative regions can provide additional information such as location, source, intransit

Error are important to check at monthend. Enter a value in the Process Flag field and click on Find.

Some of the other alterative regions provide additional information such as job, assembly, resource,

If there is a problem in the Pending Resource Transactions screen, the issue should be solved, as required,
on the necessary form (i.e. the form on which the transaction occurred). When you are ready to resubmit a
transaction line, click on the Resubmit box and Save. This process will clear the Open Resource
Transaction Interface of failed transactions.

Work in Process
Oracle Work in Process provides a standard cost system to track and report production costs through the
various stages of production as transactions occur. WIP calculates all costs as well as reports moves,
issues, resource and overhead allocations, completion, scrap, period close, and job close transactions.
The Work in Process period close process works in conjunction with the Inventory period close process.
When an accounting period in Oracle Inventory is closed, all Work in Process costs will transfer, by
account, to the General Ledger. In addition, the period close process recognizes variances for nonstandard
expense jobs and repetitive schedules.

Closing NonStandard Expense Jobs


NonStandard Expense jobs can be closed at any time, and the process of closing a job both calculates
variances and prevents further transactions on the job. In addition, the period close process in Inventory
automatically recognizes variances on all nonstandard expense job charges incurred during the period. At
period close, Work in Process automatically performs an accounting close for nonstandard job with
expense type accounting classes. Therefore, open nonstandard expense jobs have a zero WIP accounting
balance at the beginning of a new period.

journal entry.
Note: The Material Account Distribution reports are not time sensitive and can be run at any time.
Note: It is mandatory to run the Material Account Distribution Reports (with and without Subinventories) in order to reconcile WIP to the

Transfer Inventory Transactions to the General Ledger


The transfer of Inventory transactions to the General Ledger was already performed in the Purchasing
Close section of this document, in order to reconcile the Receiving Value Report by Destination Accounts to the receiving value account in
the General Ledger. However, the Inventory transactions should now be transferred again the General Ledger in order to transfer any last
minute transactions or adjustments.
Closing a period executes the General Ledger transfer automatically. However, you can also run this process without closing a period
using the Transfer Transactions to General Ledger interface table. Since you cannot reopen a closed Inventory period, running this

process before period close allows you to proof the interfaced transactions and make adjustments to the period via new inventory
transactions as necessary.
The General Ledger Transfer process can be run once a week, which would allow information from inventory and WIP to be transferred
to the General Ledger throughout the month, rather than only during the month end close process.

Reconcile Inventory to the General Ledger


At this point, the Inventory month end reports have been run and issues in Inventory identified. In addition,
Inventory transactions have been transferred, imported, and posted to the General Ledger. Now, the values from the month end reports
should be reconciled to the General Ledger account balances. Additional discrepancies between Inventory and the General Ledger will
require a manual journal entry.
The Account Total on the Material Account Distribution Report (Summary and Detail), for each account, should reconcile to the
corresponding General Ledger account balance.
A sample of the Material Account Distribution Report is shown below:
Note: The Account Total (01.510.125.0000.0000.0000) is $7,891.53. These accounts listed on the
Material Account Distribution report, and their corresponding Account Totals, have account balances in the General Ledger. These
Inventory accounts must be reconciled to the account balances in the General Ledger.
Navigation: (GL) Inquiry > Account. Enter the corresponding Accounting Period and the Inventory account number, and hit the Show
Balances button at the bottom of the screen.
When you hit the Show Balances button, the window on the right hand side of the screen shot below will open.

13/01/2017 OracleApplications:OracleMonthEndCloseProcessinOM,AR,AP,PO,ASSETS,WIP,INVENTORYandGL

The balance in the PTD field should equal the Account Balance in the Material Account Distribution
Report for the given account. Notice this balance reconciles to the Material Account Distribution Report Account Total value for the
account (01.510.1220.0000.0000.0000), at $7,891.33. This inventory account has been reconciled.
This reconciliation of Inventory accounts to the corresponding General Ledger account balance should be performed for each of the
Inventory accounts.
The perpetual Inventory value should match the value of Inventory reported in the General Ledger. Each subinventory must be balanced
to the General Ledger. Although the perpetual inventory will generally balance automatically with the General Ledger, there are
OracleAp
occasions when this is not so. If the two balances do not match, look for other Inventory journal entries, charges to improper accounts, 5.4Klikes
issues to miscellaneous accounts, and transactions after then period end reports have been run.

Close Current Inventory Period Liked


The Inventory period can now be closed. This must be done in all Inventory organizations each month.

Open Next Inventory Period


To open an Inventory period, simply click on the period to open (in the first window of this form), click on
Change Status, and acknowledge the message that appears.
Note: It is recommended to keep the current and next period open at all times to ensure that transactions will be permitted on the first
day of the next period. Transactions cannot be future dated.
Once the period close process or the interim transfer process transfers summary or detail to the General Ledger interface. The General
Ledger, through the Journal Import function, incorporates these transactions and creates a batch that you can post into the General
Ledger. After running Journal Import, you can post your journal using the General Ledger posting process, as discussed in the General
Ledger section of this document.

Close Current General Ledger Period and Open Next Period


Close the accounting period in General Ledger and open the next period once you believe all reconciliation is considered complete.
Reports can still be run for periods that are closed and permanently closed, however no entries can be entered or posted for these
periods. The main difference between closing a period and permanently closing a period is that a permanently closed period can
NEVER be reopened.
Once the General Ledger period is closed, open the next General Ledger period.
