What is a "Distribution Set"?

A predefined group of general ledger accounting codes that would determine the debit accounts for other receipt payments. Oracle Applications lets you relate distribution sets to receivables activities to speed data entry.

An Oracle Applications feature you use to assign a name to a predefined expense distribution or combination of distributions (by percentage). Oracle Applications displays the list of names in a pop-up window. With Distribution Sets, you can enter routine invoices into Oracle Applications without having to enter accounting information.
