Setting Up Finance Mode Templates and Mapping Capital Budget Lines to Your General Ledger

Once you've completed adding finance modes, perform template setup, which is basically designing the template. Select the finance mode on the Finance Mode page and click the Setup button as shown below.

On the Setup page, the template lists all attributes defined during configuration on the Define Capital Budgeting Criteria page as shown below.

When you first open the template, the Line Code column is blank. You'll need to provide destination account mappings as this is how you identify accounts in your general ledger where capital budget data is entered (or calculated) and saved.

To map capital budget lines to your general ledger:

1. Select the line and select the Mappings list-box, then select Destination Account.

2. On the Destination Account Mapping page, select segment information and click Save.

3. The Line Code column in the template is updated once Destination Account Mapping is complete for the line.

4. Repeat for each line.

Continue to design the template as needed; add borders, font color, background shading and so on.
