I just got staffed as S Associate on R2R (GL) track. I have exposure to GL from a high level but I’m not an accountant where as the module lead is a CPA. I don’t have a strong accounting background, which I think will make it difficult for me. Any experience is good experience, but I want to position myself for growth and to be promoted to manager you have to be able to lead a module. I don’t know if I will be able to lead GL but with some more experience in PPM I think I can lead. What do I do?

Don’t worry much about it. I’m not a CPA but I’m much better than them without one when it comes to Oracle GL, it is a module in Financials and PPM is another suite just like Financials and it also requires accounting knowledge. If you doing GL good then don’t get demotivated by looking at those CPAs and their hifi accounting terms, you will get there very soon. Just know that it would take some time and determination.
