transactions are displayed in the Transaction Register in the Functional Currency column.

Invoice: A document that you create in Receivables that lists amounts owed for the

purchases of goods or services. This document also lists any tax, freight charges, and

payment terms.

Debit Memos

: Debits that you assign to a customer to collect additional charges. For example, you may

want to charge a customer for unearned discounts taken, additional freight charges, taxes,

or finance charges.

Credit memos :

a document that partially or fully reverses an original invoice. You can create credit memos

in the Receivables Credit Transactions window or with Auto Invoice.

Deposit : A type of commitment whereby a customer agrees to deposit or prepay a sum of money

for the future purchase of goods and services.

Guarantee:

A contractual obligation to purchase a specified amount of goods or services over a

predefined period of time.

Charge Back:

A new debit item that you assign to your customer when closing an existing, outstanding

debit item. It is created only in Receipt Workbench.

 

Receipt :

A document that you create in Receivables that shows the amount collected from the

customers for the purchases of goods or services. You can enter receipts manually, import

them using AutoLockbox, or create them automatically. You can also use this workbench

to clear or risk eliminate factored receipts, remit automatic receipts, create chargebacks

and adjustments, and submit Post QuickCash to automatically update your customer's

account balance.

Payment terms: Payment Terms specify the dates by which the customer is supposed to

make the payments for the invoices raised for him. A payment term is attached to the

customer’s profile class. This is in turn defaults to the customer level. At the time of raising

invoices for the customer, the ayment terms attached to the customer defaults to the

transaction level.

Transfer to GL:The process of transferring accounting entries from Oracle subledger

applications to the GL_INTERFACE table in General Ledger. When entries are transferred

from the subledgers, the subledger system marks the entries in the subledger tables as

Page 3: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 3/87

posted, even though they have not been posted in General Ledger. Entries modify General

Ledger balances only when Journal Import is run and the subsequent entries are posted.

Accounting Rules:

Rules that you can use for imported and manually entered transactions to specify revenue

recognition schedules. You can define an accounting rule in which revenue is recognized

over a fixed or variable period of time. For example, you can define a fixed duration

accounting rule with monthly revenue recognition for a period of 12 months.

Auto Accounting:

In Oracle Receivables, a feature that lets you determine how the Accounting Flexfields for

your revenue, receivable, freight, tax, unbilled receivable and unearned revenue account

types are created.

Invoicing Rules:

Rules that Receivables uses to determine when you will bill your customer and the

accounting period in which the receivable amount is recorded. You can bill In Advance or In

Arrears.

Cross Currency Receipt:

A receipt that is applied to a transaction denominated in a currency different than that of the

receipt. Cross currency receipt applications usually generate a foreign exchange gain or

loss due to fluctuating exchange rates between currencies.

 

Application Rule Set: Application Rule Sets determine the steps Receivables uses to

apply partial payments and credit memos to your customer's open debit items, and how

discounts affect the open balance for each type of associated charges.

Auto Cash Rule Set :

A feature that determines the order of the Auto Cash Rules that the Post Quick Cash

program will use when automatically applying receipts to a customer's open items. You can

choose to include discounts, finance charges, and items in dispute when calculating your

customer's open balance.

Automatic receipt:

Automatic receipt feature is used to automatically generate receipts for customers with

whom you have predefined agreements. These agreements let you transfer funds from the

customer's bank account to yours on the receipt maturity date.

Receivable Activity:

You use receivables activities during the setup process to create accounting distributions

for cash and miscellaneous receipt payments, receivables adjustments, discounts,

receivables accounts, and finance charges.

Bill of exchange: In Oracle Receivables, an agreement made with your customer in which

they promise to pay a specified amount on a specific date (called the maturity date) for

goods or services. This process involves the transfer of funds from your customer's bank

account to your bank account.

Collector is the person who is responsible for collection. The Collectors will be assigned to a profile class or to a

customer's credit profile class. When you assign a collector to a profile class, that collector becomes the collector

for all customers assigned that profile class. You can modify collector assignments for your customers in the

Customers window and for your profile classes in the Customer Profile Classes window

Sales Person:

A person who is responsible for the sale of products or services. Salespeople are associated with orders, returns,

invoices, commitments, and customers. You can also assign sales credits to your salespeople

Transaction Types:

• Transaction types are referred to as the classes of transactions like Invoice, Credit

memo etc.

• For each transaction type accounting information may be provided.

• If we require an invoice for the customer, the invoice transaction type should be

attached to the transaction.

Transaction Source:

Transaction Source is required for Transactions as it is used for numbering of the

transactions.

Collection workbench Ov erv iew

Collections Workbench window is used to view information about your customers' transactions

and account balances in a variety of ways.

This is also used to place a customer account on credit hold, place items in dispute, view the

dunning history for a transaction, and correspond with customers by recording customer calls.

The following can be v iewed through Collection Workbench:

Customer Calls

Customer Accounts

Aging

Correspondence with the Customer

Transaction overview

Collectors:

Page 5: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 5/87

Customer Calls:

Whenever a customer is contacted for his past due, the Customer Calls window can be used to

record the results of your conversation.

By speaking with a customer you may learn that they were incorrectly bil led, never received the

goods or services that were ordered, or have already sent payment for the invoice in question.

By entering details about your conversation, you create a record of the contact and can

recommend any further collection action.

You can also use the Customer Calls window to place amounts in dispute and review previous calls made to your

customers.

Customer Profile Class:

• Use Customer Profiles to group customer accounts with similar credit worthiness, business

volume, and payment cycles. For each profile class you can define information such as credit

l imits, payment terms, statement cycles, invoicing, and discount information. You can also

define amount l imits for your finance charges, dunning, and statements for each currency in

which you do business.

AGING:

Receivables lets you view your customer's outstanding account balances by aging bucket. Aging

buckets are time periods in which you age and can review your debit items. For example, you

can define an aging bucket that includes all debit items that are 1 to 30 days past due.

When you view your customer balances by aging bucket, Receivables calculates and displays

the total outstanding amount and the credits not aged for unapplied cash, on-account cash, on-

account credits, and cash claims. You can modify your display by specifying an aging bucket or

by choosing to age or summarize open credits.

 

Receivables select a transaction for aging if its GL date is before or the same as the current

date. Once selected for aging, Receivables uses the following formula to determine the number

of days past due for each transaction:

 

(Current Date) - (Due Date) = Days Past Due

Page 6: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 6/87

Currency Rate Type:

Conversion rate types are used to automatically assign a rate when you convert foreign currency

journal amounts to functional currency equivalents.

When you enter a foreign currency journal, General Ledger automatically displays the

predefined exchange rate based on the currency, rate type (unless you are using the User rate

type), and conversion date you enter. When you have a User rate type, you enter the rate

directly when you enter a foreign currency journal.

 

The following are the predefined conv ersion rate types:

Spot:

An exchange rate which you enter to perform conversion based on the rate on a specific date. It applies to the

immediate delivery of a currency.

Corporate:

An exchange rate you define to standardize rates for your company. This rate is generally a standard market rate

determined by senior financial management for use throughout the organization.

User: An exchange rate you specify when you enter a foreign currency journal entry.

You can use these predefined rate types to enter exchange rates, or you can define additional conversion rate

types. After defining a conversion rate type, enter daily rates using that rate type.

Aging 4 bucket & 7 Bucket Reports

Use Aging reports to review information about your open items (the Aging – 7 Buckets by Account report is

shown). These reports can print both detail and summary information about your customer’s current and past due

invoices, debit memos, and chargebacks. Receivables also give you the option to see on–account credits, and

on–account and unapplied cash amounts.

Receipt Register

Use this report to review a list of receipts for the range of dates, receipt numbers, or document numbers that you

specify.

AR Reconciliation Report

This report is used to reconcile your accounts receivable activities. This report summarizes all customer, receipt,

transaction, and account balances for the period you specify to simplify the internal reconcil iation process. The

report uses the following formula to help you reconcile any outstanding receivable amounts:

Totals for Period – End of Period Balance = Difference

Page 8: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 8/87

The AR Reconciliation report collects information from the following:

• Adjustment Register

• Aging (beginning and ending balances)

• Applied Receipts Register

• Gain/Loss

• Invoice Exception Report

• Rounding account

• Transaction Register

• Unapplied Receipts Register

Collections by Collectors Report

Use this report to review payment applications that each collector helped to collect. You can also use this report

to see which debit items are fully paid to determine how effective your collectors are at collecting customer

payments. Receivables automatically sorts your information by collector and prints a l ine for each payment

received within the cash collection date range that you specify.

Incomplete invoices report

This report is used to review all of your incomplete invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and on–account

credits. Incomplete invoices do not update your open receivables balance nor do they display on your agings.

Use the Transactions window to complete your invoice or debit memo once you have updated them. For credit

memos and on–account credits, use the Credit Transactions window.

Past due Invoice Report

Use this report to view information about your customer’s past due invoices, debit memos, credit memos,

deposits, chargebacks, and guarantees.

Customer Open Balance Letter

This report is used to periodically inform your customers of open balances or for your own internal auditing

purposes. This letter contains an introductory paragraph, individual transaction information, and the outstanding

balance due for a customer site as of a specific date. You can include transactions for all currencies in which a

customer does business or for only one currency. If you include multiple currencies, the report l ists the total

Page 9: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 9/87

balance in each currency separately. When calculating a customer’s open balance, Receivables includes

invoices, debit memos, credit memos, bank charges, payments, discounts, on–account credits, and unapplied

receipts. Receivables uses the following formula to calculate the balance due:

Sum of Open Inv oices – On–Account Credits – On–Account Receipts – Unapplied Receipts = Open Balance

Module Overview

Oracle Receivables provides four integrated workbenches that are used to perform most of day–to–day Accounts

Receivable operations.

• Receipts Workbench is used to perform most of the receipt–related tasks

• Transactions Workbench to process invoices, debit memos, credit memos, on–account credits,

chargeback, and adjustments.

• The Collections Workbench lets you review customer accounts and perform collection activities

such as recording customer calls and printing dunning letters.

• The Bills Receivable Workbench lets you create, update, remit, and manage your bil ls

receivable. Each workbench lets you find critical information in a flexible way, see the results in

your defined format, and selectively take appropriate action.

Basic Functions of the module:

• Create

Concepts :

Transactions:

These include invoices, debit memos, credit memos, deposits, guarantees and chargeback

entered with a GL date that is between the beginning and ending GL dates. The

transactions are displayed in the Transaction Register in the Functional Currency column.

Invoice: A document that you create in Receivables that lists amounts owed for the

purchases of goods or services. This document also lists any tax, freight charges, and

Page 19: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 19/87

payment terms.

Debit Memos

: Debits that you assign to a customer to collect additional charges. For example, you may

want to charge a customer for unearned discounts taken, additional freight charges, taxes,

or finance charges.

Credit memos :

a document that partially or fully reverses an original invoice. You can create credit memos

in the Receivables Credit Transactions window or with Auto Invoice.

Deposit : A type of commitment whereby a customer agrees to deposit or prepay a sum of money

for the future purchase of goods and services.

Guarantee:

A contractual obligation to purchase a specified amount of goods or services over a

predefined period of time.

Charge Back:

A new debit item that you assign to your customer when closing an existing, outstanding

debit item. It is created only in Receipt Workbench.

 

Receipt

:

A document that you create in Receivables that shows the amount collected from the

customers for the purchases of goods or services. You can enter receipts manually, import

them using AutoLockbox, or create them automatically. You can also use this workbench

to clear or risk eliminate factored receipts, remit automatic receipts, create chargebacks

and adjustments, and submit Post QuickCash to automatically update your customer's

account balance.

Payment terms: Payment Terms specify the dates by which the customer is supposed to

make the payments for the invoices raised for him. A payment term is attached to the

customer’s profile class. This is in turn defaults to the customer level. At the time of raising

invoices for the customer, the ayment terms attached to the customer defaults to the

transaction level.

Transfer to GL The process of transferring accounting entries from Oracle subledger

applications to the GL_INTERFACE table in General Ledger. When entries are transferred

from the subledgers, the subledger system marks the entries in the subledger tables as

posted, even though they have not been posted in General Ledger. Entries modify General

Ledger balances only when Journal Import is run and the subsequent entries are posted.

Accounting Rules:

Rules that you can use for imported and manually entered transactions to specify revenue

recognition schedules. You can define an accounting rule in which revenue is recognized

over a fixed or variable period of time. For example, you can define a fixed duration

accounting rule with monthly revenue recognition for a period of 12 months.

Auto Accounting

: In Oracle Receivables, a feature that lets you determine how the Accounting Flexfields for

your revenue, receivable, freight, tax, unbilled receivable and unearned revenue account

types are created.

Invoicing Rules:

Rules that Receivables uses to determine when you will bill your customer and the

accounting period in which the receivable amount is recorded. You can bill In Advance or In

Arrears.

Cross Currency Receipt

: A receipt that is applied to a transaction denominated in a currency different than that of

the receipt. Cross currency receipt applications usually generate a foreign exchange gain or

loss due to fluctuating exchange rates between currencies.

 

Application Rule Set: Application Rule Sets determine the steps Receivables uses to

apply partial payments and credit memos to your customer's open debit items, and how

discounts affect the open balance for each type of associated charges.

Auto Cash Rule Set :

A feature that determines the order of the Auto Cash Rules that the Post Quick Cash

program will use when automatically applying receipts to a customer's open items. You can

choose to include discounts, finance charges, and items in dispute when calculating your

customer's open balance.

Automatic receipt

: Automatic receipt feature is used to automatically generate receipts for customers with

whom you have predefined agreements. These agreements let you transfer funds from the

customer's bank account to yours on the receipt maturity date.

Page 21: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 21/87

Receivable Activity:

You use receivables activities during the setup process to create accounting distributions

for cash and miscellaneous receipt payments, receivables adjustments, discounts,

receivables accounts, and finance charges.

Bill of exchange: In Oracle Receivables, an agreement made with your customer in which

they promise to pay a specified amount on a specific date (called the maturity date) for

goods or services. This process involves the transfer of funds from your customer's bank

account to your bank account.

Collectors:

Collector is the person who is responsible for collection. The Collectors will be assigned to a profile class or to a

customer's credit profile class. When you assign a collector to a profile class, that collector becomes the collector

for all customers assigned that profile class. You can modify collector assignments for your customers in the

Customers window and for your profile classes in the Customer Profile Classes window

Sales Person

: A person who is responsible for the sale of products or services. Salespeople are associated with orders, returns,

invoices, commitments, and customers. You can also assign sales credits to your salespeople

Transaction Types:

• Transaction types are referred to as the classes of transactions like Invoice, Credit

memo etc.

• For each transaction type accounting information may be provided.

• If we require an invoice for the customer, the invoice transaction type should be

attached to the transaction.

Transaction Source:

Transaction Source is required for Transactions as it is used for numbering of the

transactions.

Collection workbench Ov erv iew

Collections Workbench window is used to view information about your customers' transactions

and account balances in a variety of ways.

This is also used to place a customer account on credit hold, place items in dispute, view the

dunning history for a transaction, and correspond with customers by recording customer calls.

The following can be v iewed through Collection Workbench:

Customer Calls

Customer Accounts

Aging

Correspondence with the Customer

Transaction overview

Customer Calls:

Whenever a customer is contacted for his past due, the Customer Calls window can be used to

record the results of your conversation.

By speaking with a customer you may learn that they were incorrectly bil led, never received the

goods or services that were ordered, or have already sent payment for the invoice in question.

By entering details about your conversation, you create a record of the contact and can

recommend any further collection action.

You can also use the Customer Calls window to place amounts in dispute and review previous calls made to your

customers.

Customer Profile Class:

• Use Customer Profiles to group customer accounts with similar credit worthiness, business

volume, and payment cycles. For each profile class you can define information such as credit

l imits, payment terms, statement cycles, invoicing, and discount information. You can also

define amount l imits for your finance charges, dunning, and statements for each currency in

which you do business.

AGING:

Receivables lets you view your customer's outstanding account balances by aging bucket. Aging

buckets are time periods in which you age and can review your debit items. For example, you

can define an aging bucket that includes all debit items that are 1 to 30 days past due.

When you view your customer balances by aging bucket, Receivables calculates and displays

the total outstanding amount and the credits not aged for unapplied cash, on-account cash, on-

account credits, and cash claims. You can modify your display by specifying an aging bucket or

by choosing to age or summarize open credits.

 

Receivables select a transaction for aging if its GL date is before or the same as the current

date. Once selected for aging, Receivables uses the following formula to determine the number

of days past due for each transaction:

 

Page 23: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 23/87

(Current Date) - (Due Date) = Days Past Due

Currency Rate Type:

Conversion rate types are used to automatically assign a rate when you convert foreign currency

journal amounts to functional currency equivalents.

When you enter a foreign currency journal, General Ledger automatically displays the

predefined exchange rate based on the currency, rate type (unless you are using the User rate

type), and conversion date you enter. When you have a User rate type, you enter the rate

directly when you enter a foreign currency journal.

 

The following are the predefined conv ersion rate types:

Spot:

An exchange rate which you enter to perform conversion based on the rate on a specific date. It applies to the

immediate delivery of a currency.

Corporate:

An exchange rate you define to standardize rates for your company. This rate is generally a standard market rate

determined by senior financial management for use throughout the organization.

User: An exchange rate you specify when you enter a foreign currency journal entry.

You can use these predefined rate types to enter exchange rates, or you can define additional conversion rate

types. After defining a conversion rate type, enter daily rates using that rate type.

to see which debit items are fully paid to determine how effective your collectors are at collecting customer

payments. Receivables automatically sorts your information by collector and prints a l ine for each payment

received within the cash collection date range that you specify.

Incomplete invoices report

This report is used to review all of your incomplete invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and on–account

credits. Incomplete invoices do not update your open receivables balance nor do they display on your agings.

Use the Transactions window to complete your invoice or debit memo once you have updated them. For credit

memos and on–account credits, use the Credit Transactions window.

Customer Open Balance Letter

This report is used to periodically inform your customers of open balances or for your own internal auditing

purposes. This letter contains an introductory paragraph, individual transaction information, and the outstanding

balance due for a customer site as of a specific date. You can include transactions for all currencies in which a

customer does business or for only one currency. If you include multiple currencies, the report l ists the total

balance in each currency separately. When calculating a customer’s open balance, Receivables includes

Define Currency Rate Type:

Conversion rate types are used to automatically assign a rate when you convert foreign currency

journal amounts to functional currency equivalents.

When you enter a foreign currency journal, General Ledger automatically displays the

predefined exchange rate based on the currency, rate type (unless you are using the User rate

type), and conversion date you enter. When you have a User rate type, you enter the rate

directly when you enter a foreign currency journal.

Page 38: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 38/87

The following are the predefined conv ersion rate types:

Spot:

An exchange rate which you enter to perform conversion based on the rate on a specific date. It applies to the

immediate delivery of a currency.

Corporate:

An exchange rate you define to standardize rates for your company. This rate is generally a standard market rate

determined by senior financial management for use throughout the organization.

User: An exchange rate you specify when you enter a foreign currency journal entry.

You can use these predefined rate types to enter exchange rates, or you can define additional conversion rate

types. After defining a conversion rate type, enter daily rates using that rate type.

− Miscellaneous Receipt

Recording Standard Receipt

Use the Receipts window to enter new or query existing receipts. For each receipt, you can see whether the

receipt is identified and what portion of the receipt has been applied, placed on-account, and left unapplied.

Receipt Status

A receipt can have one of the following statuses:

Approv ed: This receipt has been approved for automatic receipt creation. This status is only valid for automatic

receipts.

Confirmed: For manually entered receipts, this status indicates the receipt belongs to a receipt class that requires

remittance. For automatic receipts, this status indicates the receipt has been confirmed.

Remitted: This receipt has been remitted. This status is valid for both automatic and manually entered receipts.

Cleared: The payment of this receipt was transferred to your bank account and the bank statement has been

reconciled within Receivables. This status is valid for both automatic and manually entered receipts.

Rev ersed: This receipt has been reversed. You can reverse a receipt when your customer stops payment on a

receipt, if a receipt comes from an account with non-sufficient funds or if you want to re-enter and reapply it in

Receivables. You can reverse cash receipts and miscellaneous transactions.

Prerequisites

Define receipt classes

Define payment methods

Define receipt sources

Define profile options

Open accounting periods

Receipt Class:

 

Define receipt classes to determine the required processing steps for receipts to which you

assign payment methods with this class.

• These steps include confirmation, remittance, and reconcil iation. For example, you must

create and remit a direct debit, but you must create, confirm, and remit a bil ls receivable

remittance.

• You can specify any combination of these processing steps with one exception: if you confirm

Page 41: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 41/87

and reconcile, then you must also remit. If you enter No for all three of these steps, Receivables

automatically creates receipts assigned to this receipt class with a status of Cleared.

• Receivables uses the payment method you assign to a receipt class to determine how to

account for receipts you create using this receipt class.

To define a receipt class:

1. Navigate to the Receipt Classes window.

Oracle Receivables

N

�Setup � Receipt � Receipt Class

The following screen will appear

2. Enter a unique Name for your Receipt Class.

3. Choose a Creation Method.

• If you choose Automatic, you can create receipts with this

receipt class using the Automatic Receipt program.

• If you choose Manual, receipts using this receipt class must

either be entered manually in the Receipts or QuickCash

window, or imported into Receivables using AutoLockbox.

4. Choose a Remittance Method. The remittance method determines the accounts that Receivables uses for

automatic receipts that you create using payment methods to which you assign this receipt class. Choose one of

the following methods:

 

Standard: Use the remittance account for automatic receipts

or for standard bil ls receivable assigned to a payment method

with this receipt class.

Factoring: Use the factoring account for automatic receipts or

for factored bil ls receivable assigned to a payment method

with this receipt class.

Standard and Factoring: Choose this method if you want

Receivables to select receipts assigned to this receipt class for

remittance regardless of the batch remittance method. In this

case, you can specify either of these remittance methods

when creating your remittance batches.

No Remittance: Choose this method if you do not require

receipts assigned to this receipt class to be remitted.

5. To require receipts created using a payment method assigned to this receipt class to

be reconciled before posting them to your cash account in the general ledger, choose

one of the following Clearance Methods:

Directly: Choose this method if you do not expect the receipts

to be remitted to the bank and subsequently cleared. These

receipts will be assumed to be cleared at the time of receipt

entry and will require no further processing. Choosing this

method is the same as setting Require Bank Clearance to No

Page 42: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 42/87

in previous releases of Receivables.

By Automatic Clearing: Choose this method to clear receipts

using the Automatic Clearing program. See: Automatic

Clearing for Receipts. (Receipts using this method can also

be cleared in Oracle Cash Management.)

By Matching: Choose this method if you want to clear your

receipts manually in Oracle Cash Management.

6. Enter the Payment Method to assign to this receipt class.

Payment Method :

• Receivables uses payment methods to account for your receipt entries and applications.

Payment methods also determine a customer's remittance bank information.

• You can assign multiple remittance banks to each payment method, but only one bank

account can be the primary account for each currency. For each remittance bank branch

account assigned to a payment method, you must define all of your receipt accounts. You can

then assign your payment methods to your receipt sources to use with your AutoLockbox and

manually entered receipts.

• If you remit receipts in several currencies for a single payment method, then you must enter at

least one remittance bank per currency. At least one of these remittance banks must be primary.

To define a payment method:

A. Navigate to the Receipt Classes window.

Oracle Receivables

N

�Setup � Receipt � Receipt Class

B. Query or enter the receipt class to assign to this payment method.

C. Enter a unique Name for your payment method, then enter how you want

this payment method to be printed on your statements in the Printed Name

field. The default Printed Name is the payment method name.

D. To assign the same transaction number to the debit memo generated when

you create a debit memo reversal, check the Debit Memo Inherit Receipt

Number box. Do not check this box if you want Receivables to generate unique

debit memo numbers automatically.

E. If the receipt class associated with this payment method has an Automatic

creation method, enter a Number of Receipts Rule (see Number of Receipts

Rules above).

F. To ensure that the receipt number is always the same as the transaction

number to which it is applied, check the Receipt Inherit Invoice Number box.

This option helps you track Automatic Receipts. Do not check this box if you

want Receivables to generate document numbers for Automatic Receipts

assigned to this receipt class and payment method.

G. Enter a Receipt Maturity Date Rule. Receivables uses this rule to pay

invoices that have different due dates with a single receipt using this payment

method. Enter Earliest if you want the receipt maturity date to be the earliest

due date of all of the invoices that your receipt covers. Enter Latest if you want

the maturity date to be the latest due date of all of the invoices that your

receipt covers.

H. Enter the Automatic Print Program for transmissions using this payment

method. Receivables provides one standard receipt print program to format the

output of your payment selection and creation programs when you physically

create the receipt document. If you need a different receipt print program

Page 43: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 43/87

format, you must copy this standard receipt print program, and modify it

accordingly.

I. Specify a number of Lead Days. Lead days indicate the number of days

before the invoice due date that an invoice can be selected for application by

the Automatic Receipts program using this payment method.

J. Enter the range of Effective Dates for this payment method. The default start

date is the current date, but you can change it. If you do not enter an end

date, this payment method will be active indefinitely.

• You can specify a default receipt batch source when defining the profile option AR: Receipt

Batch Source. If you specify a default receipt batch source, Receivables displays this source in

the Receipt Batches window when you create your receipt batches.

• When you select a receipt batch source to enter receipts, Receivables automatically uses the

Cash, Receipt Confirmation, Remittance, Factoring, Short Term Debt, Bank Charges, Unapplied

Receipts, Unidentified Receipts, On-Account Receipts, Earned and Unearned Discounts, and

Bills Receivable account information you assigned to the payment method for this batch source.

are required to be numbered starting from ‘1’ onwards, then

we have to enter the last number as ‘0’. If the number has to

be entered manually, then the ‘Automatic Transaction

Numbering’ option should not be checked.

Auto Accounting Rules This is a very important tool which enables the system to automatically derive the

accounting code combinations for Receivables, Revenue, Freight, etc. These account combinations are derived

Conversion rate types are used to automatically assign a rate when you convert foreign currency

journal amounts to functional currency equivalents.

When you enter a foreign currency journal, General Ledger automatically displays the

predefined exchange rate based on the currency, rate type (unless you are using the User rate

type), and conversion date you enter. When you have a User rate type, you enter the rate

directly when you enter a foreign currency journal.

The following are the predefined conv ersion rate types:

Spot:

An exchange rate which you enter to perform conversion based on the rate on a specific date. It applies to the

immediate delivery of a currency.

Recording Standard Receipt

Use the Receipts window to enter new or query existing receipts. For each receipt, you can see whether the

receipt is identified and what portion of the receipt has been applied, placed on-account, and left unapplied.

Receipt Status

A receipt can have one of the following statuses:

Approv ed: This receipt has been approved for automatic receipt creation. This status is only valid for automatic

receipts.

Confirmed: For manually entered receipts, this status indicates the receipt belongs to a receipt class that requires

remittance. For automatic receipts, this status indicates the receipt has been confirmed.

Remitted: This receipt has been remitted. This status is valid for both automatic and manually entered receipts.

Cleared: The payment of this receipt was transferred to your bank account and the bank statement has been

reconciled within Receivables. This status is valid for both automatic and manually entered receipts.

Rev ersed: This receipt has been reversed. You can reverse a receipt when your customer stops payment on a

receipt, if a receipt comes from an account with non-sufficient funds or if you want to re-enter and reapply it in

Receivables. You can reverse cash receipts and miscellaneous transactions.

Prerequisites

Define receipt classes

Define payment methods

Define receipt sources

Define profile options

Open accounting periods

Receipt Class:

 

Define receipt classes to determine the required processing steps for receipts to which you

assign payment methods with this class.

• These steps include confirmation, remittance, and reconcil iation. For example, you must

create and remit a direct debit, but you must create, confirm, and remit a bil ls receivable

remittance.

• You can specify any combination of these processing steps with one exception: if you confirm

and reconcile, then you must also remit. If you enter No for all three of these steps, Receivables

automatically creates receipts assigned to this receipt class with a status of Cleared.

Page 60: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 60/87

• Receivables uses the payment method you assign to a receipt class to determine how to

account for receipts you create using this receipt class.

To define a receipt class:

1. Navigate to the Receipt Classes window.

Oracle Receivables

N

�Setup � Receipt � Receipt Class

The following screen will appear

2. Enter a unique Name for your Receipt Class.

3. Choose a Creation Method.

• If you choose Automatic, you can create receipts with this

receipt class using the Automatic Receipt program.

• If you choose Manual, receipts using this receipt class must

either be entered manually in the Receipts or QuickCash

window, or imported into Receivables using AutoLockbox.

4. Choose a Remittance Method. The remittance method determines the accounts that Receivables uses for

automatic receipts that you create using payment methods to which you assign this receipt class. Choose one of

the following methods:

 

Standard: Use the remittance account for automatic receipts

or for standard bil ls receivable assigned to a payment method

with this receipt class.

Factoring: Use the factoring account for automatic receipts or

for factored bil ls receivable assigned to a payment method

with this receipt class.

Standard and Factoring: Choose this method if you want

Receivables to select receipts assigned to this receipt class for

remittance regardless of the batch remittance method. In this

case, you can specify either of these remittance methods

when creating your remittance batches.

No Remittance: Choose this method if you do not require

receipts assigned to this receipt class to be remitted.

5. To require receipts created using a payment method assigned to this receipt class to

be reconciled before posting them to your cash account in the general ledger, choose

one of the following Clearance Methods:

Page 61: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 61/87

Directly: Choose this method if you do not expect the receipts

to be remitted to the bank and subsequently cleared. These

receipts will be assumed to be cleared at the time of receipt

entry and will require no further processing. Choosing this

method is the same as setting Require Bank Clearance to No

in previous releases of Receivables.

By Automatic Clearing: Choose this method to clear receipts

using the Automatic Clearing program. See: Automatic

Clearing for Receipts. (Receipts using this method can also

be cleared in Oracle Cash Management.)

By Matching: Choose this method if you want to clear your

receipts manually in Oracle Cash Management.

6. Enter the Payment Method to assign to this receipt class.

Payment Method :

• Receivables uses payment methods to account for your receipt entries and applications.

Payment methods also determine a customer's remittance bank information.

• You can assign multiple remittance banks to each payment method, but only one bank

account can be the primary account for each currency. For each remittance bank branch

account assigned to a payment method, you must define all of your receipt accounts. You can

then assign your payment methods to your receipt sources to use with your AutoLockbox and

manually entered receipts.

• If you remit receipts in several currencies for a single payment method, then you must enter at

least one remittance bank per currency. At least one of these remittance banks must be primary.

To define a payment method:

A. Navigate to the Receipt Classes window.

Oracle Receivables

N

�Setup � Receipt � Receipt Class

B. Query or enter the receipt class to assign to this payment method.

C. Enter a unique Name for your payment method, then enter how you want

this payment method to be printed on your statements in the Printed Name

field. The default Printed Name is the payment method name.

D. To assign the same transaction number to the debit memo generated when

you create a debit memo reversal, check the Debit Memo Inherit Receipt

Number box. Do not check this box if you want Receivables to generate unique

debit memo numbers automatically.

E. If the receipt class associated with this payment method has an Automatic

creation method, enter a Number of Receipts Rule (see Number of Receipts

Rules above).

F. To ensure that the receipt number is always the same as the transaction

number to which it is applied, check the Receipt Inherit Invoice Number box.

This option helps you track Automatic Receipts. Do not check this box if you

want Receivables to generate document numbers for Automatic Receipts

Page 62: r12 Oracle Apps All

6/3/13 R12 ORACLE APPS

r1211i.blogspot.in 62/87

assigned to this receipt class and payment method.

G. Enter a Receipt Maturity Date Rule. Receivables uses this rule to pay

invoices that have different due dates with a single receipt using this payment

method. Enter Earliest if you want the receipt maturity date to be the earliest

due date of all of the invoices that your receipt covers. Enter Latest if you want

the maturity date to be the latest due date of all of the invoices that your

receipt covers.

H. Enter the Automatic Print Program for transmissions using this payment

method. Receivables provides one standard receipt print program to format the

output of your payment selection and creation programs when you physically

create the receipt document. If you need a different receipt print program

format, you must copy this standard receipt print program, and modify it

accordingly.

I. Specify a number of Lead Days. Lead days indicate the number of days

before the invoice due date that an invoice can be selected for application by

the Automatic Receipts program using this payment method.

J. Enter the range of Effective Dates for this payment method. The default start

date is the current date, but you can change it. If you do not enter an end

date, this payment method will be active indefinitely.

K. Save your work..

7. Choose Bank Account

8. After defining the bank details, choose Bank accounts from Receipt Class Workbench

 

Receipt Source:

• Define receipt batch sources to provide default values for the receipt class, payment method,

and remittance bank account fields for receipts you add to a receipt batch.

• You can specify a default receipt batch source when defining the profile option AR: Receipt

Batch Source. If you specify a default receipt batch source, Receivables displays this source in

the Receipt Batches window when you create your receipt batches.

• When you select a receipt batch source to enter receipts, Receivables automatically uses the

Cash, Receipt Confirmation, Remittance, Factoring, Short Term Debt, Bank Charges, Unapplied

Receipts, Unidentified Receipts, On-Account Receipts, Earned and Unearned Discounts, and

Bills Receivable account information you assigned to the payment method for this batch source.
