You can create advanced rules to provide additional financial dimensions that are part of the account combination, but that are not included in the account structure.

An advanced rule structure includes one or more financial dimensions that contain information that your organization wants to track, but that are not part of the account structure. Each advanced rule is associated with a specific account structure and can consist of one or more advanced rule structures.

Example

Your legal entity wants to track license plates for the vehicles that it owns as part of the vehicle maintenance main account. However, only one department uses these vehicles. Therefore, the legal entity does not have to enter that information for all departments. You could set up an advanced rule structure to track the license plate information, and you could set up an advanced rule to use that structure for only that department.

  1. Create the following advanced rule structure to track license plates for legal entity vehicles.

    Advanced rule structure = License plate

  2. Create the following advanced rule to determine when to use the advanced rule structure.

    Where Department is Delivery

  3. Add the License plate advanced rule structure to use when the advance rule is being used.

  4. Activate the account structure in the Configure account structures form.
