GL journal data model
GL_JE_HEADERS (batch/period/status) → GL_JE_LINES (account, debit/credit). Lines post against GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS; posted balances accumulate in GL_BALANCES per period.
How Subledger Accounting (SLA) generates journals
Every subledger transaction (AP invoice, AR transaction, asset addition, cost transaction) that runs Create Accounting generates an XLA_AE_HEADERS/XLA_AE_LINES accounting event first — SLA's own rule-driven layer — which is then transferred to GL_JE_HEADERS/GL_JE_LINES as the actual GL journal. This is why subledger accounting rules can be customized per ledger without changing the subledger transaction tables themselves.
