For a cost (such as an item, expense, or time entry) to be made available for invoicing to a customer, two key pieces of information must be recorded on the source transaction line (e.g., a Vendor Bill or Expense Report). First, the billable checkbox must be marked to flag the item as intended for pass-through billing. Second, a customer (or customer project) must be selected to associate the billable cost with the specific entity that will be invoiced. Without both of these settings, the charge will not appear in the customer's billing queue.

C. invoice number: The invoice number is generated upon the creation and saving of the invoice itself; it is a result of the billing process, not a prerequisite for adding items to it.

D. memo: The memo field is used for descriptive text or internal notes. While useful for clarification, it is not a functional field that controls whether an item is billable or appears on an invoice.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

SuiteAnswers. "Marking Expenses as Billable." Document ID: 10095. This guide explicitly states the procedure: "On an expense line

check the Billable box. In the Customer column

select the customer you are billing for this expense." This confirms both the "billable checkbox" and "customer" are required.

2. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

SuiteAnswers. "Billing Costs to Customers." Document ID: 9949. This document outlines the feature and notes: "To bill costs back to customers

you must associate the costs with customer projects on purchase transactions. When you enter a purchase...you can mark line-item costs as billable to a specific customer."

3. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

SuiteAnswers. "Entering a Billable Expense on a Vendor Bill." Document ID: 8521. The step-by-step instructions include: "3. Check the Billable box for the expense line. 4. Select the Customer:Job the expense is for." This further reinforces that both settings are mandatory for the process.

Interest accrued from a bank is an increase to the cash balance. The Reconcile Bank Statement page in Oracle NetSuite provides a streamlined method for recording transactions that appear on the bank statement but are not yet in the general ledger. The "New Deposits" subtab is specifically designed for this purpose, allowing a user to directly create a deposit transaction for items like interest earned. This action simultaneously records the income and adds the transaction to the reconciliation, making it the simplest and most integrated method.

A. Post a Journal Entry: While a journal entry can record interest income, it requires navigating away from the reconciliation page, creating a separate transaction, and then returning to match it, making it less simple.

B. Use the New Charges subtab: This subtab is used to record bank fees, service charges, or other debits that decrease the bank balance, which is the opposite of receiving interest.

D. Post a Write Check transaction: A Write Check transaction is used to record payments made from the bank account, which decreases the bank balance.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (2023). Reconciling Bank and Credit Card Accounts. SuiteAnswers

ID: 9391. In the section "Entering Deposits and Charges During Reconciliation

" the documentation states: "On the New Deposits subtab

you can enter deposits

such as interest earned

that are on your bank statement but have not yet been entered in NetSuite." This confirms the use of the New Deposits subtab for interest.

2. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (2023). Bank Data Matching and Reconciliation. SuiteAnswers

ID: 72979. This document details the reconciliation workflow and describes the functionality for adding new transactions directly from the reconciliation pages. It specifies that new deposits (credits on the bank statement) are entered via the Deposits subtab to create the corresponding GL entry.

A Bill Variance journal entry is created to account for discrepancies between the expected cost of goods (from the purchase order) and the actual cost from the supplier. The process involves two key posting transactions. First, the Item Receipt records the inventory at the expected cost. Second, the Vendor Bill is entered with the actual cost. If the cost on the vendor bill differs from the cost on the item receipt, the system generates a variance journal entry at the time the bill is saved to account for this difference.

B. purchase order: This is a non-posting commitment that establishes the expected price but does not directly cause the variance journal entry.

C. bill payment: This transaction settles an existing accounts payable liability and does not relate to the cost variance of the goods received.

D. purchase requisition: This is an internal, non-posting request to purchase goods and has no direct impact on the general ledger.

1. Oracle NetSuite SuiteAnswers

Answer ID: 38681

"Vendor Bill Variances." This document states

"When you use the Vendor Bill Variances feature

NetSuite can generate variance postings for vendor bills that have a price or exchange rate difference from the purchase order. These variances post when the bill is created." This confirms the Vendor Bill is a primary trigger.

2. Oracle NetSuite SuiteAnswers

Answer ID: 9919

"Definitions of Variances." This article defines Bill Price Variance: "The difference between the price of an item on a purchase order and the price of an item on a vendor bill." This establishes the relationship between the receipt (which uses the PO price) and the bill

identifying them as the two components causing the variance.

3. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

2023.2

"Accounting for Vendor Bill Variances." The documentation details the accounting impact: "When the vendor bill is for a different amount than the purchase order

a variance is created... The variance is posted as part of the vendor bill transaction." This explicitly links the variance posting to the Vendor Bill transaction

which is compared against the value established by the Item Receipt.

When managing multiple fiscal calendars in NetSuite, a key consideration is the structure of accounting periods. Periods are created independently for each fiscal calendar to accommodate different fiscal year start and end dates. For example, one calendar might have a P1 starting in January, while another has a P1 starting in July. Another important aspect is the assignment of these calendars. A single fiscal calendar can be created and then assigned to multiple subsidiaries that share the same fiscal year structure, which simplifies administration and ensures consistency for those entities.

C. Periods are shared across fiscal calendars

This is incorrect. The purpose of multiple calendars is to support different fiscal year structures; therefore, periods must be defined separately for each calendar to align with its unique start and end dates.

D. a subsidiary can have multiple fiscal calendars without multi-book

A subsidiary can only be assigned one fiscal calendar for its primary book of accounting. Reporting against a different calendar for the same subsidiary requires the Multi-Book Accounting feature.

1. Oracle NetSuite Documentation

SuiteAnswers: Multiple Calendars (Answer ID: 38411). This document outlines the setup and use of the Multiple Calendars feature. It states

"You can set up fiscal calendars for your subsidiaries that have different fiscal years... You can assign the same fiscal calendar to multiple subsidiaries."

2. Oracle NetSuite Documentation

SuiteAnswers: Setting Up Accounting Periods for a Fiscal Year (Answer ID: 9913). This guide details the process of creating accounting periods. When the Multiple Calendars feature is enabled

the "Fiscal Calendar" field becomes available on the "Set Up Full Year" page

indicating that periods are established on a per-calendar basis.

3. Oracle NetSuite Documentation

SuiteAnswers: Subsidiaries (Answer ID: 10041). The documentation for the subsidiary record shows a single field for "Fiscal Calendar

" confirming that a subsidiary is associated with only one calendar in its primary configuration.

The fundamental difference between a "Pay Vendor Bill" and a "Write Check" transaction lies in their interaction with the Accounts Payable (A/P) ledger. A "Pay Vendor Bill" transaction is specifically used to settle an existing liability that was created when a vendor bill was entered. Therefore, its primary accounting function is to debit (reduce) the Accounts Payable account. Conversely, a "Write Check" transaction is typically used for immediate payments where no formal bill was entered into the system, such as for a point-of-sale purchase. This transaction bypasses the A/P account, directly debiting an expense or asset account and crediting the bank account.

A. Both "Pay Vendor Bill" and "Write Check" transactions are posting transactions that create journal entries and impact the general ledger.

C. This is the opposite of the correct process. "Pay Vendor Bill" reduces A/P, whereas "Write Check" typically bypasses it.

D. Both transactions represent a disbursement of funds and are recorded as a credit to a bank account, reducing its balance.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

"Paying Bills" (SuiteAnswers ID: 9962). This document outlines the process for paying vendor bills. It states

"When you pay bills

you create a bill payment transaction... The standard posting transaction to pay a vendor bill is a debit to Accounts Payable and a credit to the bank account." This confirms that this transaction's purpose is to reduce A/P.

2. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

"Entering a Check" (SuiteAnswers ID: 10098). This article explains the "Write Check" function. It clarifies

"You can write checks in NetSuite to pay for expenses without entering a purchase order or a bill." The associated GL impact is shown as a debit to an expense account and a credit to the bank account

confirming it bypasses the A/P process.

3. Oracle NetSuite Help Center

"Procure-to-Pay" (SuiteAnswers ID: 8991). This overview of the purchasing cycle shows that bill payments are a distinct step following bill entry. The "Write Check" function is presented as a separate process for non-bill related expenditures

reinforcing the distinction in their handling of Accounts Payable.

Statistical accounts are used in Oracle General Ledger to store non-monetary data, such as headcount, square footage, or hours worked. This data serves as a dynamic basis for allocation rules. When costs, like recruiting expenses, need to be distributed based on a fluctuating metric like departmental headcount, a statistical account is required. The allocation rule reads the current headcount from the statistical account each period to calculate and post the appropriate expense distribution, ensuring accuracy as the underlying driver changes over time.

A. A static division of rent implies a fixed, unchanging percentage or amount, which does not require a dynamic statistical basis.

C. A predefined split of marketing costs is a fixed-ratio allocation that can be configured directly in the rule without needing variable statistical data.

D. An even 50/50 split is a simple, fixed-percentage allocation and is the opposite of a dynamic allocation based on statistical measures.

Using General Ledger

Release 23D.

Document Section: Chapter: Create Journals > Statistical Journals: Explained.

Content: "Capture statistical data for reporting and allocations. For example

you can capture the headcount of each cost center and use that information as the basis for allocating corporate overhead." This directly supports using headcount (a statistical measure) as a basis for allocations.

2. Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials

Release 23D.

Document Section: Chapter: Set Up Allocation Rules > Allocation and Periodic Entry Rules: Explained > Section: Basis.

Content: The documentation explains that the "Basis" block of an allocation rule defines the driver for the allocation. It specifies that the source for the basis can be "Financial or statistical balances." This confirms that statistical account balances are a designated source for creating allocation calculations

particularly for variable drivers like headcount.

In a NetSuite OneWorld environment, vendor records are designed to support global business operations. A single vendor entity can be associated with multiple currencies, which is essential for international procurement. This allows purchase orders and vendor bills to be created in various currencies as needed. Furthermore, a key feature of OneWorld is the ability to share records across different business units. A vendor is assigned a primary subsidiary but can also be explicitly assigned to other subsidiaries. This enables centralized vendor management while allowing individual subsidiaries to transact with that same vendor, reflecting a consolidated relationship.

B: The "Credit Limit" field is a standard attribute of a Customer record, used to define the maximum amount of credit extended to a customer, not a feature of a Vendor record.

C: This statement is incorrect and contradicts the fundamental design of NetSuite OneWorld, which is built to allow entities like vendors to be shared across multiple subsidiaries.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. Assigning Subsidiaries to a Vendor. SuiteAnswers ID: 10092. This document states

"In NetSuite OneWorld

you can share vendor records with multiple subsidiaries. When you create a vendor record

you must associate the vendor with one primary subsidiary. You can also associate the vendor with any number of secondary subsidiaries." This directly supports option D and refutes option C.

2. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. Setting Up Multiple Currencies for Vendors. SuiteAnswers ID: 38482. This guide explains

"If you have the Multiple Currencies feature enabled

you can buy from a vendor in a currency other than their primary currency... On the Currencies subtab of the vendor's record

you can add any currency that is set up at Setup > Company > Currencies." This confirms the validity of option A.

3. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. Setting a Credit Limit for a Customer. SuiteAnswers ID: 9911. This document details the functionality and location of the Credit Limit field

specifying its presence on the Financial subtab of the Customer record. This confirms that Credit Limit is a customer-specific attribute

making option B incorrect as it pertains to vendors.

When customizing financial reports using NetSuite's Financial Report Builder, sections are fundamental organizational blocks. Each section you create is a distinct grouping that can be configured with its own header row to label the section and a summary row to provide subtotals for the data within it. Furthermore, these sections are highly flexible; they are not restricted to a single account type. You can create a custom section and populate it with various accounts of different types (e.g., grouping specific cash, accounts receivable, and inventory accounts) to meet specific reporting requirements.

A. custom sections are restricted to one account type: This is incorrect. A key feature of custom sections is the ability to group accounts from multiple different account types together for specialized reporting.

B. formula rows calculate from the row immediately above: This is incorrect. Formula rows in the Financial Report Builder can reference any other row in the report layout, allowing for complex calculations like (Row A + Row B) / Row C.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (2023). Adding and Editing Sections in the Financial Report Builder. SuiteAnswers

ID: 10062.

This document states

"Each section can have its own header row and summary row." This directly supports option C. It also details the process of creating sections and adding account rows

Under the "Formula Rows" subsection

it explains that formulas are created by referencing other rows using their assigned letters (e.g.

This guide describes the layout of the Financial Report Builder

noting that the layout is composed of sections. It details how to add "Header/Summary" rows to these sections and how to add "Data Rows" by selecting specific accounts

which can be of various types. This supports both C and D.

A Reference Row is used in a Financial Report to display the exact, unmodified data from another row. While this is technically configured using the "Formula Row" type with a simple reference to the source row (e.g., Row[1]), the term "Reference Row" most accurately describes its specific function: to mirror data without performing any calculations or modifications. This distinction is crucial as the "Formula Row" type is a broader category that also includes rows performing complex calculations which modify data.

A. Text Row: This row type is used for static text, such as headers or labels, and cannot dynamically display data from other rows.

B. Echo Row: "Echo Row" is not a standard or recognized row type within the Oracle Financial Reporting toolset.

C. Formula Row: This option is too general. While a formula row is the technical means to create a reference, this type also performs calculations that modify data, which contradicts the "unmodified" criteria in the question.

In NetSuite's Chart of Accounts, a hierarchical structure is created by defining parent-child relationships. This is done by editing the child account and selecting an existing account in the "Subaccount of" field. A parent account can be configured as either a posting or a non-posting account. By checking the "Summary" box on the parent account's record, it is designated as a non-posting account. This prevents any direct transactions from being posted to it, and its balance will simply be a summary of its child accounts' balances, which is useful for reporting. If the "Summary" box is left unchecked, the parent account remains a posting account.

A: Checking the "Summary" box makes an account non-posting; therefore, no transactions, including reversing journal entries, can be posted to it.

D: The parent-child relationship is established from the child account's record using the "Subaccount of" field, not a "Parent of" field on the parent account.

1. NetSuite Help Center

SuiteAnswers ID: 9910

"Creating Accounts for the Chart of Accounts." This document states

"In the Subaccount Of field

select the parent account for this account... Check the Summary box to have this account serve as a non-posting summary account for reporting purposes." This confirms that the "Subaccount of" field creates the child relationship (Option B) and that the "Summary" box makes an account non-posting (Option C).

2. NetSuite Help Center

SuiteAnswers ID: 10023

"Setting Up the Chart of Accounts." In the section "Account Types

" it clarifies

"A parent account can be a posting account if it does not have the Summary box checked. If the Summary box is checked

the parent account is a non-posting account

and its balance is the rollup of its subaccounts." This directly supports the correctness of Option E.

3. University of Waterloo

School of Accounting and Finance

"AFM 321: Accounting Information Systems Courseware

" Module: The General Ledger and Chart of Accounts. The course materials explain

"To create a hierarchy

you define a subaccount relationship. On the new account record

you select an existing account in the 'Subaccount of' list... A parent account with the 'Summary' option enabled becomes a non-posting account

useful for high-level reporting without direct transaction entries." This corroborates the mechanisms described in options B and C.
