Create Ledgers in AP&C

Create Ledgers in AP&C

You can create actuals ledgers for each of your companies in Adaptive Planning and Consolidation (AP&C). For commitment and obligation ledger types, you can enable the creation of commitments and obligations for payroll transactions (payroll and fringe benefits) and procurement transactions. You can have 2 actuals ledger types per company.
  1. Access the
    Create Ledger
    task.
  2. Select the
    Company
    for which you want to create ledgers.
  3. Select which
    Actuals Ledger Type
    to use for the company ledgers.
    Workday appends the ledger type name and currency code to the actuals, commitment, and obligation ledgers of the company. You can't change the actuals ledger type once there are journal entries for the company.
  4. To provide budget date visibility on all applicable journal lines, select the
    View Budget Date
    check box.
    When you select
    View Budget Date
    , Workday uses your
    Budget Options
    configuration on the
    Edit Tenant Setup - Financials
    task to determine the default budget date for the transaction.
    When you have an actuals ledger only and control budget for actuals transactions only, you can select or clear it.
You can use the company ledger to store accounting results from your original journal entries.
Create and open a ledger year and ledger periods for your company ledgers.
