GENERALLEDGERINTERVIEWQUESTIONSINR12Posted by Raju ERP1) Can a flexfield qualifier be changed after it has been created?
Ans) No.
Once a segment qualifier has been designated for a specific segment and has been saved, it will permanently
have the attributes with that qualifier.
or e!ample, you accidentally designate the cost center segment as the natural account segment. Even though
you do not compile this, the system saves the changes. "nd once it has been saved, it will have all the attributes
designated for the natural account qualifier, even after it has been changed bac#, resaved with the correct
qualifier and compiled. $his is the inherent functionality of the software.
%nfortunately, there is no real easy solution for this issue. $he only option is to create a new chart of accounts
and attach a new set of boo#s.
2) How to delete a segment value?
Ans) $here is no supported way to delete a segment value. &egment values can only be disabled not deleted.

fle!fields.

combinations.
'n this case (ynamic 'nsertion should be enabled and all account segment values need to e!ist before the new
account code combinations will be dynamically created.

') #hat is average (alance In racle *inancials?
Ans) $he "verage =alance feature of Oracle Aeneral edger provides organi)ations with the ability to trac#
average and end7of7day balances, report average balance sheets, and create custom reports using both standard
and average balances. "verage balance processing is particularly important for financial institutions, since
average balance sheets are required, in addition to standard balance sheets, by many regulatory agencies. ;any
organi)ations also use average balances for internal management reporting andProfitability analysis.
$he difference between an average and standard balance sheet is that balances are e!pressed as average
amounts rather $han actual period7end amounts. "n average balance is computed as the sum of the actual daily
closing balance for a balance sheet account, divided by the number of calendar (ays in the reporting period .

A) Standard Purchase Order:You generally create standard purchase orders for one-time purchase of various items.
You create standard purchase orders when you know the details of the goods or services you require, estimated costs,
quantities, delivery schedules, and accounting distributions. If you use encumbrance accounting, the purchase order may
be encumbered since the required information is known

items or services from a single source. You must specify tentative delivery schedules and all details for goods or services
that you want to buy, including charge account, quantities and estimated cost.
EX: Buying goods for Christmas from a specific dealer.
C) Contract PO: You create contract purchase agreement with your supplier to agree on specific terms and conditions
without indicating the goods and services that you will be purchasing i.e. for $ amount you must supply this much
quantity. You can later issue standard PO referencing your contracts and you can encumber these purchase orders if you

use encumbrance accounting.
D) Blanket PO :You create blanket purchase agreements when you know the detail of goods or services you plan to buy
from a specific supplier in a period , but you do not yet know the detail of your delivery schedules. You can use blanket
purchase agreements to specify negotiated prices for your items before actually purchasing them.
A Blanket Purchase Agreement is a sort of contract between the you and ur supplier about the price at which you will
purchase the items from the supplier in future. Here you enter the price of the item not the quantity of the items. When
you create the release you enter the quantity of the items. The price is not updatable in the release. The quantity * price
makes the Released Amount. Now suppose your contract with your supplier is such that you can only purchase the items
worth a fixed amount against the contract.
