Create a custom report to view detailed accounting results.
  1. Access the
    View Accounting Source
    report.
  2. Select an accounting source for which you want to view detailed accounting.
  3. From the related actions menu of the accounting source, select

    • Worktags and Additional Attributes
      : Are displayed in the far right of your dataset, with Additional Attributes prefixed with AA.
    • AC_Transaction_ID
      : Is a system-generated field that uniquely identifies transactions. When each row of your enriched data generates a balanced entry, each row represents a single transaction for which Workday generates a unique transaction ID. When Accounting Center groups multiple rows to generate a balancing entry with a user-supplied Transaction Grouping ID, Workday generates a unique transaction ID using the user-supplied Transaction Grouping ID.
    • Accounting Center Batch

    • Accounting Center Batch Run
      : Indicates the Detailed Accounting Batch Run stage completed by the batch run.
