Pre-Validate Accounts Data
This gives the user the option to (or not to) pre-validate account code combination data before it is uploaded.
If ‘Yes’ is selected, the account code combinations on the sheet will be validated by the Wizard before they are uploaded.
If ‘No’ is selected, the Wizard processes the data significantly faster leaving the account code combination validation to Oracle; any errors encountered by Oracle will be written back to the Wizard when the ‘Refresh Interface Status’ option is clicked.
When selecting ‘No’, the following will not error:
• Code Combinations that are:
- Not enabled
- Summary accounts (parent)
- Control accounts
Any errors will return when the Interface Status is refreshed after upload.
• Code Combinations that are outside the ranges for each Organization. We have found that Oracle accepts these when processed via the Wizard.
Important – If you choose not to pre-validate your upload and you enter GL Accounts which fall outside the entered Budget Organization’s account ranges, it is possible that Oracle may import these into your budget tables. To avoid this, you will need to set Pre-Validate Accounts to ‘Yes’ but keep in mind that this will affect the performance of the upload.
