Oracle Purchasing - Difference Between Accrue on Receipt and Accrue at period end

Accrue On Receipt means that when a receipt is saved, accrual transactions are immediately recorded and sent to the general ledger interface. This is also known as "online" accruals. 


 Accrue at Period End means that when a receipt is saved, the accrual transactions are not immediately recorded and sent to the general ledger; instead, the accounting entries are generated and sent at the end of the month by running the Receipt Accruals - Period-End Process. 

All items with a destination type of either Inventory and Outside Processing are accrued on receipt. 

For items with a destination type of Expense, you have the option of accruing on receipt or at period end.
