Encumbrance Type 1060 - should they be balanced - if so - how?
Recently we migrated to Oracle 12.1.3.
I am familiar with encumbrance types 1000 and 1001 (obligations/commitments or POs/PRs) - these are routinely reconciled and the balances are compared to GL for variances.
However, in R12 there is a new encumbrance type of 1060 (invoice). There are currently eleven GLs carrying a non-zero 1060 encumbrance type balance.
Can someone please tell me exactly what the 1060 type is for, whether or not I should worry about the balances, and/or how to reconcile the 1060 type encumbrance balance in AP to GL (as we do with the PO/PR's)?
Thanks for your assistance!
