6. How to Apply Journal Line Definitions Rules to the Manual Journal Entries
Is it possible to add the seeded Oracle Manual event class to an Application Accounting Definition? This would allow the users to define rules to be applied to manual journal entries in the subledger.
The answer is no. Manual SLA journal does not use rules. In R12, rules do not apply to manual journal entries in the subledger.
Whatever line type/account you enter, the system will take it and create an entry. The System will not consider rules for Manual Journal Entries.
See Note 452739.1 for more information.
