  • Workday creates new accounting that credits the account used by the
    Prepaid Spend
    posting rule and debits the account used by the
    Spend Account
    posting rule.
  • For invoices with prepaid lines, Workday generates liquidation accounting when you approve the prepaid amortization, not the invoice. For invoices with non-prepaid lines, Workday generates liquidation accounting when you approve the invoice.
  • When you amortize an installment from a prepaid spend amortization schedule created from an approved accounting adjustment, Workday:
    • Credits the prepaid account for the worktags from the accounting adjustment line.
    • Debits the spend account for the worktags from the installment line.
