Process

Description

Data Validation

Validates that data is accurate and complete prior to posting into the General Ledger. Missing and invalid values may also be completed in this step.

Continuation Account

Expired or closed accounts are replaced with a continuation account when certain situations apply.

Pre-Scrubber

If accounts cannot be the same across charts and the chart code is missing, the pre-scrubber will fill in the chart code associated with the account.

Offset Generation

Offsets will be created for transactions if offsets haven’t already been created to ensure the system is balanced.

Transaction Generation

The scrubber also creates generates transactions to capitalize assets and liabilities, post plant indebtedness, cost share transfers and cost share encumbrances.

Demerger

The demerger removes any entries or offsets that are related to transactions with the same document number that had errors. This prevents unbalanced transactions from posting to the General Ledger.
