XYZ Company has disabled the Receivables Profile Option "AR: Disable Receivable Activity Balancing Segment*. What must be defined In order for the General Ledger Transfer process to execute without error?

Full set: 101 questions
Answer options
A: gain account
B: revenue account
C: expense account
D: rounding account
E: suspense account Correct answer
Correct Answer:
E. suspense account
Explanation

When profile option ‘AR: Disable Receivable Activity Balancing Segment’ is set to No (disabled), Receivables can pass unbalanced journal entries to General Ledger. Oracle therefore requires a ledger-level suspense account so that the Transfer to GL program can post any out-of-balance amounts; without this account the transfer ends in error.

Why Incorrect

A. Gain account is used for foreign-currency gains, not for balancing segment differences.
B. Revenue account records earned revenue and is unrelated to suspense balancing.
C. Expense account tracks costs, not inter-company balancing needs.
D. Rounding account absorbs currency-rounding pennies, not whole balancing-segment imbalances.
