nce data

In Peop

leSoft Enter pr ise Sales Incentive Management, system objects that represent

the sales organization, such as territories, participants, products, customers, and

channels.

reference object In PeopleSoft E nterprise Incentive Managemen t, th is dimen sion -ty pe object further

defines the busin ess. Re ference objects can have their own hierarch y (for example,

produ

ct tree, customer tree, industry tree, and geography tree).

reference transaction In commitment control, a reference tr ansaction is a sou rce transaction that is

refer

enced by a higher-level (and usually later) source transaction, in order to

automatically reverse all or part of the referenced transaction’s b udget-checked

amount. This avoids duplicate postings during the sequen tial entry of the transaction at

diff

erent commitment levels. For example, the amount of an encumbrance transaction

(such as a purchase o rder) will, when checked and recorded against a budget, cause

the system t o concurrently referen c e and relieve all or part of the amount of a

corr

esponding pre-encumbran ce transaction, such as a purchase requisition.
