The solution to these complex reporting requirements, and the need to get a little more out of the allocation tool, just may be Advanced Cost Accounting. In this article, the second in a series of two, Laurey Godard explains how ACA can help you resolve these challenges.

Ever wish you could really analyze your customer and product line profitability? Ever want to allocate indirect costs such as Admin and Marketing to customers, product lines, or sales marketing channels automatically, based on a driver that makes sense, such as number of lines on sales orders? Ever wish you could do this without putting an incredible amount of detail into your General Ledger? In her Advanced Cost Accounting article, Susan Stooksberry shows us how to attain both of these goals through existing JD Edwards functionality. Not only that, but she shows us in a clear and very readable style, from setup through reporting and online views.
