Accounting Events
Accounting events originate during transaction processing in the applicable source module. The accounting events impact the source module, Commitment Control ledgers, and the General Ledger (Actuals).
- Source Module accounting entries require user input (I) of the primary line (i.e., expenditure, revenues) with an automated (A) system offsetting line (i.e., payable, receivable) during transaction entry. The source model transaction must pass Edit Check, Budget Check, and Cash Check (on applicable entries) prior to posting the transaction.
- The Run Budget Check (Commitment Control) process automatically affects balances in the appropriate budget ledger (i.e., appropriation, spendable cash) if the transaction passes the budget check process.
- After the transaction is posted in the source module, an automated system process summarizes and posts the entries in the General Ledger module to the Actuals Ledger.
The table below provides the most common accounting events applicable to this business process.
Acct Event ID | Accounting Event | Commitment Control Ledger(s) Impact | Source Module Accounting Entry | General Ledger (Actuals) Entry |
---|---|---|---|---|
AP06 | Increase spendable cash Decreases expense Increase available appropriations Increase allotments Increase releases | Debit: Agency Fund Cash Credit: Agency Fund Expenditures | Debit: Agency Fund Cash Credit: Agency Fund Expenditures | |
