Objective 5 : DETAIL Ledger Group
DETAIL Ledger Group
• Does not provide budget balances
• Expenses shown by detail general ledger code
• Encumbrances and Pre-Encumbrances shown by detail
general ledger code
• Available balances – will always appear as negative
because there are no budgets
Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups
PARENT (MD_PRJP) Ledger Group
Budgets/expenses/encumbrances and pre-encumbrances shown at a POOLING level
• You will need to read the activity with the help of the pooling definitions – also
known as “tree”
• Pooling account acts as a master account that includes a group of sub-accounts,
also known as general ledger codes – therefore, as long as there is sufficient
funds for a particular pooling account, there will be sufficient funds for all detail
accounts under it. Example - no need to request budget transfers from one
travel account into another, as long as the travel pooling account has sufficient
balance.
• The available balances in each pooling account will dictate whether or not there
are sufficient funds to process a Purchase Order/Travel expense, etc. prepared
using detail general ledger codes.
• This is the ledger you will use to have a full picture of your grant activity.
Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups
CHILD (MD_PRJC) Ledger Group
• The “Child” ledger provides the grant information in the same
format as the “Parent” ledger, however, there is an important
change being implemented to ease the tracking of your grant
activity that will soon be available:
• This ledger will show the budget/expenses/encumbrances and
pre-encumbrances not a pooling level, but a more descriptive
level very close to your detail general ledger codes.
• New pooling definitions – “Tree” - will soon be available to help
you look your grant activity up in the system.
Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups
Budget Overview :
• Requisitions/Purchase Orders, etc. will continue to require the
detail ledger code and the complete charstring. Please note that
Capital Projects and Grants require the Project ID, PC BU (always
01) and Activity (always 01) as part of the ChartField string.
Without these fields your transactions will not go through.
