Implementation considerations for the Journal Categories Region:
Journal Source
-
This source labels the journal entries that are sent from Oracle Assets to the GL.
Journal Categories
-
Choose the Journal Category names you want to use when journal entries are generated from Oracle Assets to the General Ledger.
You cannot create new Journal Sources and Categories in this form. You must choose from LOV of already defined sources and categories. Typically, these are defined in the Oracle GL application.

The default GL accounts are setup for each asset book that is associated with this asset category regardless of whether that asset book will create journal entries for the GL.
