EXPLANATION AND DISCUSSION OF AGIS
What is AGIS? • Advanced Global Intercompany System • Streamlines the intercompany trading and
reconciliation process across ledgers • Allows companies to comply with local
regulations • Allows institutions to treat intercompany
transactions as “arms length” transactions
What is AGIS? • Allows companies to follow established
corporate standards for processing intercompany transactions between related legal entities of an enterprise
• Provides interactive reconciliation reporting, which allows you to drill down to the details of intercompany account balances so you can quickly find the source of discrepancies in the balances of each trading partner’s account.
SAMPLE CONFIGURATION IN R12
Review of R12 Instance • Single Ledger (Vision Operations) • Two Legal Entities • Vision Operations • Vision Leasing
• Two Operating Units • Vision Operations • Vision Construction
R12 Configurations • Setups for AGIS are grouped into 5 main
areas • Environment Setups • General Ledger Setups • Receivables Setups • Payables Setups • Advanced Global Intercompany System
setups
Employees • 2 Employees and Users setup • “AGIS OPERATIONS” • “AGIS CONSTRUCTION”
• “AGIS OPERATIONS” will be the initiator of
the Intercompany transaction • “AGIS CONSTRUCTION” will be the recipient
of the transaction
Define Users • Define 2 users • AGIS.OPERATIONS • AGIS.CONSTRUCTION
• Assign the correct employee to each user • Assign responsibilities • Intercompany Superuser • Intercompany User • For invoicing feature, BOTH Operating Units
MUST have Receivables fully configured
Define Intra-Company Accounts
• Intracompany Accounts may need to be configured for each Legal Entity • Only if “Intra-company Balancing” is enabled
for the Ledger For more information on IntraCompany Accounting, please see “Inter and Intra Company Accounting in R12 - A Deep Dive”, from Collaborate 2012, Insights Magazine Fall Edition 2012 by Thomas Simkiss and Lee Briggs
Define Inter-Company Accounting
• Inter-company accounting allows you to define the relationship between legal entities
• In this example, transactions are only flowing from Operations to Construction. The only relationship defined for this session is therefore Operations to Construction.

PROCESSING AGIS TRANSACTIONS IN R12
Transaction Processing • At a high level, there are 4 steps to AGIS
transaction processing • Initiation of a transaction by an Intercompany
(I/C) organization • Completion of accounting by the Initiator • Completion of the accounting by the Recipient • Approval of the transaction by the Recipient
• Optionally, AR and AP Invoice processing is undertaken

ADDITIONAL USES FOR AGIS
AGIS and FSAH • Financial Services Accounting Hub (FSAH) is
designed to be used as a repository for transactions from disparate systems to be accounted for in a single accounting system
• SubLedger Accounting allows you to design rules for specific transaction types and events.
AGIS and FSAH • If you’re using FSAH in R12, you can also
use AGIS to apply common intercompany processing rules across the entire enterprise
• Since FSAH is designed to accept transactions from disparate systems (whether Oracle, Peoplesoft, SAP, or some 3rd party legacy), you can use FSAH and AGIS to act as a hub for ALL intercompany transactions, and acccount for them in one GL system
