FAQs
This course covers the key functions of Oracle R12 Subledger Accounting. You’ll learn how to generate and manage accounting entries, apply custom rules, and use tools like AMB to support accurate financial processing and reporting.
Is there a formal Oracle Financials Certification?
Oracle provides formal certification through Oracle University. This course focuses on delivering job-ready skills, designed to help you apply what you learn immediately in a working Oracle R12 environment. You’ll receive an ILX certificate of attendance, which reflects your hands-on learning and can support CPD records or internal progression. For many professionals, the practical expertise gained through ILX proves more valuable than certification alone.
What’s the difference between Oracle subledger and General Ledger entries?
Subledgers record detailed transactional data, such as individual invoices or payments, while the General Ledger consolidates this information into summarised accounts for financial reporting. Oracle Subledger Accounting acts as a bridge, transforming subledger activity into compliant journal entries. On this course, you’ll learn how to manage this flow using tools like the Create Accounting programme, Accounting Methods Builder, and manual journal entry processing to ensure accuracy and consistency across your financial systems.
