Configuring MCL Integration

The Micronet Creditors Ledger is the central ledger where suppliers/creditors are maintained and reported on. It uses simple integration to transfer data and financial transactions from its ledgers to the General Ledger.

Like the Distribution system, MCL uses GL interface records to automate the transfer of financial data to the General Ledger. While Distribution uses GL interface records to create all financial entries for the General Ledger on the user's behalf, MCL uses part GL interface record and part GL dissection, thereby allowing users to classify expenses at their discretion. Therefore, the GL interface records in MCL only contain GL accounts for events that are repetitive in nature and unchanged from transaction to transaction.

To setup MCL integration:

1. Complete the Config GL Interface (Creditors) screen.

Refer to "Edit - General Ledger Config - Creditors Interface".

2. If you set the Interface to GL field to Yes on the Config GL Interface (Creditors) screen, in MCL setup the GL interface records for MCL.

You setup GL interface records using the GL Interface master file in MCL.

Refer to "File - GL Interface".

3. For each creditor setup in the Creditor master file in MCL, enter the name of the appropriate GL interface record in the GL Interface field.

Where a GL interface record has not been assigned to a creditor record, users need to enter these GL accounts individually each time a transaction is posted against the creditor.

Refer to "File - Creditor - Creditor".
