China Localization Overview

The China Localization module is installed with CloudSuite Industrial. However, it must be enabled for individual sites through the Optional Modules form. The China Localization features are then available at that site for users with a valid ChinaCountryPack license.

These base CloudSuite Industrial forms have changes to their functionality when the module is enabled:

• Accounting Periods: The current accounting period must be set in accordance with the transaction date of the Chinese voucher.
• Mass Journal Posting and Ledger Posting for Journal: On these forms, these fields are disabled:
  • Compress Journal Before Post
  • Delete Transaction After Post
  • Single Date to All Entries

  You must run the Add CH-GL Voucher utility for the distribution journals. Otherwise the journals cannot be posted to the General Ledger.

• Journal Compress: A/R, A/P and writable journal IDs cannot be compressed. For other journal IDs, only the journal entries with the same account number and/or reporting unit, transaction date, and CH-GL voucher number can be compressed together. The control number is not eliminated after a journal is compressed. The consecutive journal entries for the same date have the same control number.
• Journal Entries and G/L Posted Transactions: On these forms, these fields are added:
  • CHGL Voucher Number
  • Line Number
  • Rubric, which indicates whether a rubric is applied to the voucher
• Purge Journals: On this form, any Chinese journals that meet the criteria are also deleted.
• Rebalance Ledger Period Total: When the module is enabled, an additional stored procedure creates period total records that contain the sum of the transactions for a specific period.
• Journal Resequencing: On this form, the sequencing of Chinese journals is also reset.

When the China Localization module is enabled, many additional forms are available under Optional Modules > China Localization in the  Explorer menu.
