Accounts Receivables

EAS – Oracle Apps


Overview of AR
 Oracle Receivables provides three integrated workbenches to perform most of the day-to-day
Accounts Receivable operations.
 Use the Receipts Workbench to perform receipt-related tasks
 Use the Transactions Workbench to process invoices, debit memos, credit memos, on-
account credits, chargebacks, and adjustments.
 Use the Collections Workbench to review customer accounts and perform collection activities
such as recording customer calls and printing dunning letters.
 Use the Collections workbench to also 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.
 Each workbench helps find critical information in a flexible way, see the results in a defined
format, and selectively take appropriate action.
 The Receipts and Transactions workbenches let you view records one at a time or as a
group.
 Detail windows display only one receipt or transaction at a time, but provide more information
about the record because they contain more fields and tabbed regions.
 Summary windows, by contrast, can display multiple records at once but require "drill down"
to the detail window to view additional information about the current record.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Overview of AR
 Receipts Workbench: Receipts, Receipts Summary, Receipt Batches and Receipt Batches
Summary
 Transactions Workbench: Transactions and Transactions Summary, Transactions Batches
and Transaction Batches Summary
 In the Receipts and Transactions Workbenches, the Tools pulldown menu lets you perform
operations in addition to those provided by the action buttons.
 In the Receipts Workbench, view the sum of multiple receipts in the Receipt Totals window,
and review the functional currency gain or loss resulting from a currency exchange rate
adjustment in the Receipt History window.
 In the Transactions window there is no Copy button, but still copy a transaction by choosing
Copy To from the Tools menu.
 Similarly, the Balances button does not appear in the Transactions Summary window, but
can be displayed in the Transaction Balances window by choosing Balances from the Tools
menu.
 View the detail accounting lines for an item in the form of a balanced accounting entry (i.e.,
debits equal credits) by choosing View Accounting from the Tools menu.
 View the detail accounting as t-accounts

Find Customers – Fuzzy Search
Fuzzy Search
The fuzzy search method widens the
scope of a search and finds data
comparable to the search criteria. In
the Customer Find/Enter window you
can perform a fuzzy search on
several fields. The fields you can
fuzzy search are:
•Person First Name
•Person Last Name
•Organization Name
•Address
•Contact First Name
•Contact Last Name
The fuzzy search method uses Word
Replacement pairs to map a word,
abbreviation, or special character that
might be entered by a user as a
search criteria to a similar word,
abbreviation, or special character.

Match Results Window
Note the following in the Match Results
window:
• The title bar of the Match Results window
displays the Customer Type used for the
search and the search criteria.
• If a party has multiple customer accounts,
the party name displays (indented to the
right) in the Name column next to each
customer account.
• When the results of a search for a Person
customer type display, the First Name
and Last Name fields from the Find/Enter
Customers window are concatenated.
• The Match Results window displays both
the Party Number and the Customer
Number columns.
• If the Identifying Address Flag check box
is checked, then other party sites could
exist for this party.
• The Name and Customer Number fields
can not be hidden in the view of the
Folder.
• Do not resort the results using different
fields. The resulting list of parties and
customer accounts may appear
confusing.

Creating Invoice Batches
• Use batches to match control and actual invoice counts and amounts. Actual
count and amount is updated as invoice is entered.
• A batch can contain invoices with different currencies.
• Print invoices by batch.
• Can only delete a batch if it does not contain any transactions
• Oracle Receivables uses invoice batches to import invoice data.
• Batch information identifies the originating system when importing transactions.
Invoice Batch Statuses
• New: This is a new batch, and it has not yet been saved.
• Out of Balance: The actual count and amount of transactions in this batch do
not equal the control count and amount.
• Open: The actual count and amount equal your control count and amount.
• Closed: The actual count and amount match the control count and amount.

Oracle Receivables automatically numbers each recurring transaction.
• Each recurring transaction uses the batch source assigned to the model transaction.

Determining Transaction Schedule


• Oracle Receivables determines the date and frequency of the copied transactions, using the
rule, first transaction date, and number of times specified.
• The recurring schedule cannot be updated after it has been saved.
• Oracle Receivables creates all invoice copies at one time.
• Invoices created in unopened periods will be created as incomplete.

Invoicing Rules determine when to recognize receivable for invoices that span more
than one accounting period.
• Assign invoicing rules to invoices that entered manually or imported into Receivables
through AutoInvoice.
• Receivables provides the following invoicing rules:
• Bill in Advance: Use this rule to recognize receivable immediately.
• Bill in Arrears: Use this rule to recognize the receivable at the end of the
revenue recognition schedule.
Accounting Rules determine the number of periods and percentage of total revenue
to record in each accounting period.
• An unlimited number of accounting rules can be determined.
• Invoicing and Accounting Rules are not applicable if the method of accounting is

Header Level Rounding
• Rounding the converted amounts can cause an imbalance between the accounting entries that Oracle
Receivables creates for each currency.
• Depending upon the legal requirements, there may be a need to round amounts at the transaction header
level and post the difference to a separate GL account.
• Account for the rounding differences by enabling Header Level Rounding and defining a Header Rounding
account.
• The rounding account is always recorded as a credit, whether it is a positive or negative amount. This is
because the Header Level Rounding account is considered a contra account which offsets the receivable
account.

Printing Invoices
Consider the following when determining the range of invoice dates to print:
If the invoice you are printing has a payment term where Print Lead Days is 0, Receivables uses
the transaction date to determine if this transaction falls into the Start and End Date range you
specify.
If the invoice you are printing has a payment term where Print Lead Days is greater than 0,
Receivables uses the formula Due Date - Print Lead Days to determine if this transaction falls
into the Start and End Date range you specify.
Invoices & Debit Memos
For each invoice Receivables displays the quantity ordered, shipped, unit price, and extended
amount.
Receivables prints the entire description for each invoice line. Text wraps to the next line.
Receivables displays the total amount of the lines, tax, and shipping in the body of the printed
invoice.
For installments, Receivables displays the total amount due for each installment as well as the
line, tax, and freight amount in the subtotal fields.
Credit Memos
For each credit memo, Receivables displays a row for every invoice line, tax, or freight amount
you are crediting.

Receivables prints tax on invoices and debit memos depending upon the value entered for
the Tax Printing option assigned to the customer's profile class. If no option is specified in
the profile class, Receivables uses the value entered in the System Options window.

Following are Receivables' tax printing options:


European Tax Format: Print tax information in the following format: Tax rates printed
as the last column of invoice lines, freight items printed last, and the taxable
amount with the summarized tax codes printed at the end of the invoice.
Itemize by Line: Itemize tax information for each invoice line. Receivables displays
this information after each invoice line.
Itemize and Summarize: Display both itemized and recap tax information.
Summarize by Tax Code: Display all tax information under the heading 'Tax

Printing Statements
 Generate statements that are specific to individual customer billing locations.

 A statement will indicate if the location of an included transaction differs from the billing
location by putting a note on the line following the transaction

 Receivables creates the statement output file and requires that this file be sent to the printer
using the operating system's landscape print command.

 When this file is sent to the printer, Receivables prints one sample page of Xs to show how the
statement will print. This helps in making any necessary adjustments before actually starting
printing of the statements.

Printing Dunning Letters
 Use dunning letters to inform customers of past due invoices, debit memos, and
chargebacks. When dunning letters are printed, Receivables prints a copy of each
invoice which has line items that are past due.
 Create dunning letter sets in which to group dunning letters together to vary the tone with
each successive letter.
 When the Dunning Letter Generate program is submitted, Receivables compares the
number of days that a customer's oldest outstanding debit item is past due with the Days
Past Due Date ranges of the dunning letters in this customer's dunning letter set. This
comparison determines which dunning letter to print
 For each dunning submission, the Dunning Letter Generate program selects and prints
letters using the dunning letter sets, customers, and collectors that satisfy the
submission criteria.
 Control the severity and content of each dunning letter sent and exclude individual
customers from dunning, even if they have items that are past due.
 Include disputed items, on-account and unapplied receipts, and finance charges in
dunning letters, as well as debit items that are not yet due.
 Choose to use receipt grace days to extend the due dates of a customer's past due
items.
EAS – Oracle Apps
Processing Invoices
Dunning Methods
Days Overdue: Letters are based on the total number of days that debit items are
past due. This method generates letters for a specific customer based on a range of
days overdue that you define for each dunning letter set. Receivables takes into
account the number of receipt grace days defined for a customer (if any) when
calculating the number of days items are past due.

Staged Dunning: Letters are based on the dunning levels of past due debit items.
This method lets you send dunning letters based on the number of days since the last
letter was sent, rather than the number of days items are past due. For each dunning
letter, you specify the minimum number of days that must pass before Receivables
can increment an item's dunning level and include this item in the next letter that you
send. This feature can be useful if, for example, you inform your customer that you will
begin collection action if payment is not received within x number of days of receiving
the current letter.

Consolidated Billing
• Use the Consolidated Billing Invoice program to print a single monthly invoice that includes all
customer’s transactions for that period.
• Customers are flagged to receive consolidated billing invoices through their customer profile
class.
• The invoice format can be detail or summary. The detail and summary format presents
invoice totals. The detail format lists all line items.
• The Consolidated Billing feature of Receivables cannot be used in conjunction with the
Imported Billing Number feature. The Consolidated Billing feature can be used for monthly
billings. Use the Imported Billing Number to group invoices other than on a monthly basis.
• When a consolidated billing invoice is created, Receivables includes all invoices, credit
memos, adjustments, receipts, and cross-site applications that have not been included on a
previous consolidated billing invoice
• If a transaction has been included on a consolidated billing invoice, it cannot be updated,
regardless of how you set the system option Allow Change to Printed Transactions. This is
because Receivables considers inclusion on a consolidated billing invoice to be an activity and
a transaction cannot be updated once it has an activity against it.

AutoInvoice
AutoInvoice Overview
AutoInvoice is a powerful, flexible tool you can use to import and validate transaction data from
other financial systems and create invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and on-account credits
in Oracle Public Sector Receivables. You use a custom feeder program to transfers transaction
data from an external system into the AutoInvoice interface tables. AutoInvoice then selects data
from the interface tables and creates transaction in Receivables. Receivables rejects
transactions with invalid information to ensure the integrity of your data.
With AutoInvoice, you can:
•Import large numbers of transactions for seamless integration from Oracle or non-Oracle
systems
–Invoices
–Debit memos
–Credit memos
–On-account credits
•Calculate taxes for the imported transactions, or pass the tax through the tables
•Correct errors easily online

Preparing Receivables for AutoInvoice
• To ensure that the AutoInvoice program works properly, prepare Receivables for any new data
imported. If the feeder system uses any setup data which is not yet defined in Receivables, must
define this data before using AutoInvoice. Following is a list of setup data to be considered:
• Add currencies not yet defined in Receivables.
• Add or update tax rates assigned to tax codes.
• Add or update tax rates associated with products shipped to specific addresses.
• Add or update full or partial customer and item tax exemptions.
• Add Freight on Board (FOB) codes to Receivables
• Add freight carrier codes.
• Add payment terms to Receivables.
• Add transaction types to Receivables.
• Add batch sources.
• Add agents.
• Add accounting rules.
• Add units of measure.
EAS – Oracle Apps
AutoInvoice
Grouping Rules
• Grouping rules are mandatory and determine how transaction lines are grouped into
transactions
• Grouping rules specify attributes that must be identical for lines to appear on the
same transaction.
• AutoInvoice requires mandatory grouping on the transaction attributes Currency
Code and Bill-To Customer (only one of each attribute is allowed per invoice).
• Receivables automatically applies these required grouping rules to any additional
transaction attributes assigned to the grouping rules.
• All attributes of the Transaction Flexfield are optional within a grouping rule and can
be assigned as optional grouping characteristics in the Grouping Rules window.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Grouping Rule Hierarchy
AutoInvoice uses the following hierarchy to determine which grouping rule to use for a
transaction line:
• The grouping rule specified in the Transaction Sources window for the batch
source of the transaction line
• The grouping rule specified in the Customer Profile Classes window for the bill-to
site use of the transaction line
• The grouping rule specified in the Customer Profile Classes window for the bill-to
customer of the transaction line
• If no rule is specified in either the Transaction Sources or Customer Profile
Classes window, AutoInvoice uses the default grouping rule specified in the
System Options window

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
AutoInvoice Line Ordering Rules
• AutoInvoice uses these rules to order transaction lines when grouping the
transactions it creates into invoices, debit memos, and credit memos.
• Line ordering rules can be assigned to each grouping rule.
• AutoInvoice uses transaction attributes in the line ordering rules to order invoice
lines based on the priority defined.
• An ascending or descending order for each transaction attribute assigned to a rule
can also be specified.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Using AutoInvoice – Key Concepts
AutoInvoice Purge Program - Choose whether to delete data from the AutoInvoice
Interface tables once it has been validated and transferred into Receivables. Check
the Purge Interface Tables box in the System Options window to automatically delete
the data.
The AutoInvoice Purge program and the Purge Interface Tables system option only
delete data from the interface tables that has been validated and successfully
transferred into Receivables.
Calculating Tax - AutoInvoice provides the functionality needed to meet sales tax
and other taxing requirements, such as Value Added Tax (VAT). Either pass tax
code lines, tax exempt lines or have AutoInvoice automatically determine tax rates
using the hierarchy determined by the tax calculation flow charts.
If AutoInvoice determines tax rates, it will take into account any customer or item tax
exemptions or item tax exceptions.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Using AutoInvoice – Key Concepts
Transactions in Closed Accounting Periods – Use AutoInvoice to pass
transactions in closed accounting periods. Receivables automatically uses the first
day of the next open accounting period as the default date to determine the
accounting distributions.
Creating Transactions – AutoInvoice creates invoices, debit memos, credit memos
and on-account credits using the grouping and invoice line ordering rules specified.
AutoInvoice verifies that the data is valid before it creates transactions in AR.
Deriving Invoice and Accounting Dates – Choose how to determine invoice and
accounting dates for transactions. The feeder program can either load these dates
directly into the interface tables or, if the date fields empty are left empty,
Receivables determines the invoice and accounting dates.
Invoices Against Commitments – Create invoices against commitments in the
same way as a manually entered invoice.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
AutoInvoice Execution Phases
AutoInvoice can be divided into three major phases: pre-grouping, grouping, and
transfer.
In the pre-grouping phase, AutoInvoice validates all of the line-level data as well as
any other data that is not dependent upon successful grouping. Some examples
include validating that a transaction type is valid and validating that only one freight
account exists for each freight line passed.
In the grouping phase, AutoInvoice groups lines based on the grouping rules and
validates header-level data that is dependent on how your lines are grouped. Some
examples include validating the over-application rules specified for your batch source
and validating that the general ledger date of an invoice against a commitment is not
before the general ledger date of the commitment.
In the transfer phase, AutoInvoice validates information that exists in Receivables
tables, such as tax defaulting and AutoAccounting data.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
AutoInvoice Validation Checks
AutoInvoice validates data for compatibility with Receivables. It ensures that the
columns in Receivables' Interface tables reference the appropriate values and
columns in Receivables.
Existence – For some columns, AutoInvoice ensures that the values are already
defined in Receivables. However, AutoInvoice does not validate against any
effectivity date or status.
Batch Sources – Values for all of the fields that are referenced in the Transaction
Sources window don’t have to be passed. To ignore any of these values for a
specific batch source, set the field to 'None' in the Transaction Sources window. Use
transaction batch sources that have a type of 'Imported' when importing transactions
into Receivables
Uniqueness – AutoInvoice ensures that the invoice number supplied is unique
within a given batch source and the document number supplied is unique within the
associated sequence type. AutoInvoice also ensures that the Transaction Flexfield
supplied is unique.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
AutoInvoice Validation Checks
Precision – Precision is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point that are
used in regular currency transactions. AutoInvoice ensures that the amount and the
accounted amount supplied have the correct precision for a given currency.
Cross Validation – AutoInvoice ensures that certain column values agree with each
other. These values can be within an interface table or multiple interface tables.
Validation for Lines With Rules – Besides validating dates, AutoInvoice also
validates and rejects lines if:
• The accounting rule has overlapping periods
• All of the accounting periods do not exist for the duration of the accounting rule
Create Transactions with Invalid or Incorrect Data – Specify whether AutoInvoice
has to reject or partially create transactions that have an invalid line, invalid tax rate, or
a GL date in a closed period. Transactions that fail validation appear in the AutoInvoice
Validation report. The values entered in the AutoInvoice Processing Options tabbed
region of the Transaction Sources window determine how AutoInvoice will process
transactions with invalid data.
EAS – Oracle Apps
AutoInvoice
Determining GL Dates for Invoices Without Rules
AutoInvoice uses the following process to determine the GL date for invoices witout
rules

 AutoInvoice uses the general ledger date in the interface table, if one exists and it is
in an open or future enterable period.
 If GL date is not passed and Derive Date is set to No, AutoInvoice uses the value of
the Default Date parameter for this AutoInvoice submission.
 If GL date is not passed and Derive Date is set to Yes, AutoInvoice uses the ship
date in the interface table.
 If the ship date does not exist or is in a closed period, AutoInvoice uses the sales
order date.
 If the sales order date does not exist or is in a closed period, AutoInvoice uses the
value of the Default Date parameter for this AutoInvoice submission.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Determining GL Dates for Invoices With Rules
 If the invoice uses Bill in Advance as the invoicing rule, AutoInvoice uses the
earliest accounting rule start date as the invoice GL date.
 If the invoice uses Bill in Arrears as the invoicing rule, the invoice line has an
accounting rule of type 'Accounting, Fixed Duration,' and a period of 'Specific Date,'
AutoInvoice computes an ending date using the latest accounting rule date.
 For all other accounting rules, AutoInvoice computes an ending date for each
invoice line based on the accounting rule, accounting rule start date, and duration.
 Once AutoInvoice computes the ending date for each line of the transaction, it takes
the latest date and uses it as the invoice GL date.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Determining Rule Start Date for Invoices with Rules
 If the invoice does not use an accounting rule with a type of 'Accounting, Fixed
Duration' and a period of 'Specific Date,' or if the rule start date is not Derived,
Receivables uses the date specified in the Run AutoInvoice window.
 If the invoice has an accounting rule with a type of 'Accounting, Fixed Duration' and
a period of 'Specific Date,' AutoInvoice uses the earliest accounting rule date as the
rule start date.
 If the rule start date is Derived, AutoInvoice first uses the ship date in the interface
table.
 If the ship date does not exist, AutoInvoice uses the sales order date.
 If the sales order date does not exist, AutoInvoice uses the date entered in the Run
AutoInvoice window.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Determining Credit Memo Dates
If a transaction date is passed for the credit memo, AutoInvoice uses the following hierarchy to
determine the credit memo date:
 The credit memo general ledger date.
 The general ledger date for the invoice's receivable distribution, or the Default Date in the Run
AutoInvoice window, whichever is later.
 If a general ledger date is not passed, AutoInvoice uses the general ledger date for the
invoice's receivable distribution or the Default Date in the Run AutoInvoice window, whichever
is later.

Determining the Transaction Dates


If a transaction date is not passed for the invoice or debit memo, AutoInvoice uses the general
ledger date.

AutoInvoice
Transaction Flexfields
• Transaction flexfields are descriptive flexfields that AutoInvoice uses to uniquely
identify transaction lines.
• Because they are unique for each transaction line, they can also be used to
reference and link to other lines.
• Receivables lets you determine how you want to build your transaction flexfield
structure and what information you want to capture.
• Define a flexfield for each import source. Specify which one to use during import.

Types of Transaction Flexfields


• Invoice Header (optional): Specifies invoice header information
• Line (required): Uniquely identifies invoice lines
• Link-To (optional): Link tax and freight to invoice lines
• Reference (optional): Links credit memos to transactions

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
Importing Transactions Using AutoInvoice
 Run the AutoInvoice Import or Master program to transfer transactions from other
systems into Receivables.
 Submit the AutoInvoice Import, Master, and Purge programs from the Submit
Request window. However, the AutoInvoice Master and Purge programs can be
submitted only from the Run AutoInvoice window. The Master program allows
running several instances of AutoInvoice to improve system performance and
import transactions more quickly.
 Run the AutoInvoice Purge program to delete the interface lines that were
processed and successfully transferred into Receivables by the AutoInvoice Import
program.
 If the Purge Interface Tables option in the System Options window is set to Yes
this program doesn’t have to be run; in this case, Receivables deletes the interface
lines automatically after AutoInvoice is run.

AutoInvoice Interface Tables
Oracle Receivables uses three interface tables for AutoInvoice:
•RA_INTERFACE_LINES
•RA_INTERFACE_DISTRIBUTIONS
•RA_INTERFACE_SALESCREDITS

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
RA_INTERFACE_LINES Table
•This table contains information relating to all transactions to be processed by
AutoInvoice. Transactions include invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and on-
account credits.
•Each record contains line, tax, freight, or finance charges information.
•The Line_Type field identifies the type of information contained in the record.
•A record can be a parent record: Line, Header Freight, or Charges; or a child record:
Tax or line-level Freight.
•A child record is linked to the parent record using the Link-To Transaction flexfield.

EAS – Oracle Apps


AutoInvoice
RA_INTERFACE_DISTRIBUTIONS Table
• This table contains accounting distributions to be used by the transactions defined
in RA_INTERFACE_LINES.
• Accounts defined in this table override any accounts created using AutoAccounting.
• Choose to pass some or all account information to AutoInvoice. Any accounts that
are not passed will be derived using AutoAccounting.
• Records in this table are linked to records in the RA_INTERFACE_LINES table
using the Transaction flexfield.
• Not required if AutoAccounting determines GL distributions.

Accounting for Commitments – Deposits
 The accounting reversal is made by creating a receivables adjustment in Accounts
Receivable to the invoice for the total of the invoice lines.

 This adjustment has the effect of reducing the invoice's payment schedule by the
amount of the invoiced items (tax and freight amounts are not deducted from the
deposit balance) and creating the reversing accounting entries.

 If however, the amount of the invoice exceeds the remaining commitment balance,
Receivables only creates a receivables adjustment for the remaining commitment
balance.

Adjusting Transactions Automatically
• Automatic adjustments eliminate remaining balances for invoices, taxes, freight,
invoice line items, or finance charges.
• You can restrict the remaining currency or percentage amounts that can be
reduced to zero, based on the user’s adjustment approval limits.
• Approval limits for automatic adjustments work in the same way as manual
adjustments.
Creating Automatic Adjustments
• The Activity field in the Parameters region determines which GL account is debited
to eliminate remaining balances.
• The Type field determines what type of transactions are affected.
• Because of the impact of this feature, you should limit its availability to users when
setting up Oracle Receivables.

Application Rule Sets
 Application Rule Sets determine the steps Receivables uses to apply partial payments
to customer's open debit items and how discounts affect the open balance for each type
of associated charges.
 Application Rule Sets specify how Receivables reduces the balance of the open debit
items when :
• A receipt is applied to an invoice or debit memo
• Post QuickCash is run
 Assign a rule set to each of transaction types and enter a default rule set in the System
Options window.
 Receivables uses the following hierarchy to determine which application rule set to use,
stopping when one is found:
• Transaction Type
• System Options

EAS – Oracle Apps


Receipts
Application Rule Sets
Receivables provides the following predefined Application Rule Sets.
Line First - Tax After - This rule set first applies the payment to the open line amount, and then
applies the remaining amount to the associated tax. If the payment is greater than the sum of
the line and tax, Receivables attempts to close each open item by applying the remaining
amount in the following order, stopping when the payment has been fully applied:
• Freight
• Finance charges
Any remaining receipt amount is applied using the Overapplication Rule. This is the default
application rule set in the System Options window
Line First - Tax Prorate - This rule set applies a proportionate amount of the payment to the
open line and tax amount for each line. If the payment is greater than the sum of the open line
and tax amounts, Receivables attempts to close each open item by applying the remaining
amount in the following order, stopping when the payment has been fully applied:
• Freight
• Finance charges
Any remaining receipt amount is applied using the Overapplication Rule
EAS – Oracle Apps
Receipts
Application Rule Sets
Prorate All – This rule set applies a proportionate amount of the payment to each open amount
associated with a debit item (for example, any line, tax, freight, and finance charge amounts for
this item).
Receivables uses the following formula to determine the applied amount:
Applied Amount = open application line type amount / sum of application line types in rule
details * Receipt Amount
Any remaining receipt amount is applied using the Overapplication Rule
Overapplication Rule – This rule applies any remaining receipt amount after the balance due for
all charges has been reduced to zero.
• If the transaction type for the debit item has the Allow Overapplication check box set to
Yes, Receivables applies the remaining amount to the lines, making the balance due
negative.
• If the item's transaction type has Allow Overapplication set to No, you can either place
the remaining amount on-account or leave it 'Unapplied'.

Receipt Batches
• Use the Receipt Batches window to create receipt batches or to query existing batches.
Batching receipts lets you:
• View the difference between your control and actual batch counts and amounts as you
process your receipts. These differences can alert you to data entry errors, missing or
lost receipts, or duplicate entries.
• Group related receipts together to share default attributes such as receipt class,
payment method, and automatic numbering.
• Manage the time-consuming task of data entry. For example, you have many receipts
to enter and want to divide the work among several people. You can create one batch
and have each person entering receipts add them to the same batch.
• You can add duplicate receipts to a batch. Duplicate receipts are receipts that have the
same number, amount, and customer information.
• You can post a receipt batch to your general ledger regardless of its status. You can delete
a receipt batch only if it does not contain any receipts.

Quick Cash Receipts
• Create a batch of QuickCash receipts to enter and apply receipts quickly. The
QuickCash window requires only minimal information for each receipt and
application. QuickCash also provides an extra level of control for entering high
volume receipts because it does not immediately affect the customer's account
balance.
• When receipts and applications are entered in a QuickCash batch or imported using
AutoLockbox, Receivables stores the data in an interim table. Use the QuickCash
window to review receipts and ensure that application information is correct. After
reviewing a QuickCash batch for accuracy, run Post QuickCash to update the
customer account balances.
• Apply receipts to one or many transactions using QuickCash, use AutoCash rules,
place receipts on-account, or enter them as unidentified or unapplied. If the profile
option AR: Enable Cross Currency is enabled, receipts can also be applied to
transactions in different currencies. On running Post QuickCash, Receivables treats

Receipts
AutoCash Rule Set
AutoCash Rules determine how a QuickCash receipt is applied to open debit items.
Receivables uses the customer open balance along with the AutoCash rules to
determine how to apply receipts and whether to allow partial payments to be applied to
the customer’s open items. If Receivables is not able to apply or fully apply a receipt,
the remaining amount can be left as Unapplied or On-Account.
To determine which AutoCash Rule Set to use when applying receipts, the following
hierarchy is used, stopping when one is found:
• Customer site
• Customer profile class
• System Options window
Receivables provides five AutoCash rules that can be used to create AutoCash rule
sets. When AutoCash rule sets are defined, the rules to use and the sequence of
these rules are specified.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Receipts
AutoCash Rule Set
When Post QuickCash is run to apply customer receipts, Receivables tries to use
each AutoCash rule within an AutoCash rule set. If the first rule in the set does not find
a match, Receivables uses the next rule in the sequence, and so on until it can apply
the receipt.
Following are the AutoCash rules that can be used:
• Match Payment with Invoice
• Clear the Account
• Clear Past Due Invoices
• Clear Past Due Invoices Grouped by Payment Term
• Apply to the Oldest Invoice First

EAS – Oracle Apps


Receipts
AutoCash Rules
Match Payment with Invoice – When using this rule, Receivables can only apply the
receipt to a single invoice, debit memo, or chargeback if the receipt amount matches
the amount of the debit item.
If more than one debit item has an open amount that matches the receipt amount,
Receivables applies the receipt to the item with the earliest due date.
If more than one debit item exists with the same amount and due date,
Receivables applies to the item with the lowest payment schedule id number, an
internal, system-generated number.

Clear the Account – When using this rule, Receivables can only apply the receipt if
the receipt amount matches the customer open balance. Receivables includes all
open debit and credit items when calculating the customer open balance. Open credit
items include credit memos, on–account credits, and on–account and unapplied cash.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Receipts
AutoCash Rules
Clear Past Due Invoices – When using this rule, Receivables can only apply a
receipt if the receipt amount matches the customer past due account balance.
Receivables includes all open past due debit and credit items when calculating the
customer past due account balance.
A debit item is considered past due if the invoice due date is earlier than or equal to
the receipt date of the receipt being applied to this invoice.
For unapplied and on–account cash, Receivables uses the receipt date
For credit memos and on–account credits Receivables uses the credit memo date
to determine whether to include these amounts in the customer’s account balance.

Clear Past Due Invoices Grouped by Payment Term – When using this rule,
Receivables can only apply a receipt if the receipt amount matches the sum of the
customer credit memos and past due invoices. This rule is similar to the Clear Past
Due Invoices rule, but it first groups past due invoices by their payment term, and then
uses the oldest transaction due date within the group as the group due date.
EAS – Oracle Apps
Receipts
AutoCash Rules (Contd…)
Apply to the Oldest Invoice First – When using this rule, Receivables applies
receipts to the customer debit and credit items starting with the item having the oldest
due date. Receivables uses the values entered for the open balance calculation to
determine the customer’s oldest outstanding item.

Reversing Receipts
 Reverse a receipt when a customer stops payment on a receipt or if a receipt comes
from an account with non-sufficient funds.
 Reverse a receipt to re-enter and reapply it in Receivables.
 Reverse both standard, invoice-related receipts and non-invoice related (miscellaneous)
receipts.
 Reverse an Automatic Receipt only if its status is Approved.
 After a receipt is reversed, the receipt's attributes cannot be updated.
 The following types of receipts can be reversed:
• Invoice-related receipts
• Non-invoice related (miscellaneous) receipts
• Credit Card refund (negative miscellaneous) receipts
• Automatic receipts with a status of Approved
• Receipts that are part of a batch (use the Receipt Batches window to re-enter a

EAS – Oracle Apps
Receipts
Reversing Receipts
Create two types of reversals:
Standard Reversal
• Receivables automatically creates reversal journal entries for GL and reopens all of
the debit and credit items that were closed with the original receipt.
• Create a standard reversal for a transaction related to a chargeback if there is no
activity against the chargeback and the chargeback has not been posted to the
general ledger.
• If the chargeback has been posted to the general ledger, create a debit memo
reversal.
• On creating a standard reversal for a receipt that has been applied, Receivables
reverses any adjustments or chargebacks created, as long as these adjustments
are not posted to GL.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Receipts
Reversing Receipts
Debit Memo Reversal
 Receivables does not update any of the receipt activity associated with the original
receipt. The new debit memo reversal is actually a new receivable that replaces the
item closed by the original receipt. Receivables requires that a debit memo reversal
be created if:
• The receipt reversed has previously been applied to a chargeback and this
chargeback has had any activity against it (for example, another receipt, credit
memo, or adjustment)
• The chargeback or adjustment was posted to GL
 When a debit memo is created for a receipt reversal, Receivables creates a line on
the debit memo that displays the original receipt number associated with the debit
memo.
 In addition, when the reversal is saved, Receivables assigns a unique transaction
number to the new debit memo.

Calculating the Foreign Currency Exchange Gain or Loss

 When a receipt is applied to a transaction that is in a different currency,


Receivables first determines the transaction and the receipt amounts in the
functional currency.
 Receivables then compares these amounts to determine the foreign exchange gain
or loss for this application.
• If the result is positive, a foreign currency exchange gain is incurred for this
application
• If the result is negative, a foreign exchange loss is incurred.

 Receivables calculates the foreign exchange gain or loss using the following
formula:
Receipt Amount (as of the receipt date) - Invoice Amount (as of the invoice date)
= Foreign Exchange Gain or <Loss>

Setting Up Cross Currency Receipts
Define Cross Currency System Profile Option – To be able to apply a receipt in one currency
to one or more transactions in a different currency, set the system profile option AR: Enable
Cross Currency to Yes. Define this profile option at the Site, Application, or User level.
Define Cross Currency Rounding Account – Define a Cross Currency Rounding Account in
the System Options window. Receivables uses this account to record any rounding error
amounts created during a cross currency receipt application for currencies that have a fixed
rate relationship.
Define a Suspense Account in Oracle General Ledger – To create entries so that each
journal entry balances in the entered currency. Enabling of suspense accounting for the set of
books to apply cross currency receipts in Receivables is not necessary. Only definition of a
suspense account for journal entries created by cross currency receipt applications is required.
For each of these entries, Oracle General Ledger does the following:
• Ignores the Out of Balance Errors: All cross currency receipt applications will be out of
balance, since the currency of the receipt is not the same as that of the transaction.
• Creates Balancing Lines: GL will look to the suspense account defined in the Suspense
Accounts window and create a line to balance the journal entry. The Source of the
Suspense Account should be 'Receivables' and Category 'Cross Currency.'

in the Applications window displays a value independent of this setting. This field will always
display a value in accordance with the following:
Transaction Amount * Cross Currency Rate = Receipt Amount

Cross Currency Exchange Gain/Loss Report


Review detailed information about cross currency settlements including:
• The transaction number and currency
• The amount applied to each transaction in both the transaction and your base (functional)
currency
• The amount of the crosss currency receipt allocated to the transaction
• The cross currency rate used for each application
• The foreign exchange gain or loss (FXGL) for each application
• Information necessary to compare the FXGL you would have realized if you had used the
cross currency rate maintained in your General Ledger

Automatic Receipt Statuses
Automatic Receipts have a status that indicates whether they are complete. Valid
statuses include:
• Started Creation
• Creation Completed
• Started Approval
• Approval Completed
• Started Format
• Format Completed

EAS – Oracle Apps


Automatic Receipts
Creating Automatic Receipts
• Select invoices to include in the automatic receipt batch by entering a receipt class
with an Automatic creation method and specifying other selection criteria such as
currency, due dates, and range of customer names.
• The Create Automatic Receipts program picks up all complete transactions that
meet this criteria and create receipts to close out these transactions.
• In addition to the criteria specified, the customer profile is also checked to
determine whether a transaction should be included in an automatic receipt batch
and whether to include invoices in dispute.
• The number of Lead Days entered for the payment method is used to determine
when an invoice is eligible for the creation of automatic receipts.
• The lead days is the number of days before the invoice due date that this invoice
can be selected for automatic receipt.
• A batch of automatic receipts can only have one payment method, thus one lead
days value. Receivables compares the invoice due date and lead days with the
batch date.
EAS – Oracle Apps
Automatic Receipts
Creating Automatic Receipts
• The GL date is used to determine the accounting period in which the automatic
receipts will post. A GL date cannot be entered for a new batch if the receipt class
requires confirmation as a separate step because:
• Accounting entries are not created when receipts are approved, but not
confirmed.
• The receipt amount is validated to determine if it is more than or equal to the
Minimum Receipt Amount specified for the remittance bank and customer
profile class.
• Minimum receipt amounts for remittance bank accounts can be assigned in the
Receipt Classes window and for Customers in the Customer Profile Classes or
Customer windows.
• If the total of the transactions does not match the larger of the two minimum receipt
amounts, no receipts will be created. These transactions will appear in the
Exception section of the Create Automatic Receipt Execution report.

Confirming Automatic Receipts
 Confirm automatic receipt batches to indicate that the customer has reviewed each
receipt and agreed that the payment information is correct.
 Depending on the agreement with the customer, certain types of automatic receipts
require confirmation from the customer before they can be considered payments
and remitted to the bank.
 Once the receipts have been approved, make any necessary changes, then
confirm the receipts. Receipts that require confirmation automatically close the
invoices for which they were created when they are confirmed.
 After confirming the batch, create a remittance batch to initiate the transfer of funds
for each receipt.
 To indicate that a receipt requires confirmation, assign a receipt class that has the
Require Confirmation option set to Yes.
 Receipts that do not require confirmation are created as confirmed.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Automatic Receipts
Confirming Automatic Receipts
 If the receipt class assigned to an automatic receipt or automatic receipt batch
requires confirmation, the receipt or batch must be confirmed once it has been
approved. If the receipt class does not require confirmation, Receivables
automatically confirms all of the receipts within the batch when the batch is
approved.
 An automatic receipt cannot be “Unconfirmed” after confirmation. If a receipt is
confirmed in error, it needs to be reversed and then recreated.
 Once an automatic receipt is confirmed, the transactions closed by this receipt can
no longer be selected for automatic receipt. However, transactions that have a
remaining balance due can be included in a subsequent automatic receipt batch.

Remitting Receipts
Overview of Remittances
• A remittance is a receipt that can be deposited in a bank. It is similar to a deposit
slip.
• Use remittances to initiate the transfer of payments from customers
• Control the remittance process by having different people create, approve, and
format remittances in separate steps, or by having one person remit receipts in a
single step.
• Remit several receipts at the same time by creating a remittance batch.

Remitting Receipts
Remittances
Receivables supports two types of remittances:
• Standard Remittances:
• For automatic receipts, remit receipts to the bank so the bank can transfer
funds from the customer's account to the company’s account on the receipt
maturity date.
• For manual receipts, the bank credits the company’s account when the
customer's check clears.
• Factored Remittances:
• Remit receipts to the bank so that the bank can lend money against the
receipts either before the maturity date (for automatic receipts) or before
clearing (for manual receipts).
• After clearing factored receipts, Receivables creates a short term debt for the
borrowed amount to track the liability in case of customer default.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Remitting Receipts
Factoring Remittances
 Factoring is a process in which the accounts receivable of a company is sold to the
bank in return for cash.
 To factor receipts, choose a remittance method of 'Factoring' or 'Standard and
Factoring.' Choose Standard and Factoring receipts created with this receipt class are
not always factored.
 Whether the receipts should be factored is specified when a remittance batch is created.
 If a Remittance Method of Factored is chosen, all receipts that have receipt classes with
Remittance Method set to either 'Factoring' or 'Standard and Factoring' and that meet
the selection criteria will be included in the remittance batch.
 Factored remittance batches are created the same way as a standard remittance batch.
 Track risk of customer default when a receipt is factored with the bank. In this case,
Receivables creates a short term debt for the risk upon clearance of the receipt.
 Risk is displayed on the Bank Risk report and the different aging reports.
 Oracle Order Management uses this value during credit checking.
 Run the Automatic Clearing program to eliminate risk on or after the maturity date of
your automatic receipts.

Creating Remittance Batches
• Remittance batches group receipts for deposit or transfer of funds
• Create one batch per bank account or per clearing institution
• Receipts are included in the batch by maturity date, followed by amount
• Specify an amount range the batch. If the total amount of receipts in the batch does
not fall within the specified amount range, then Oracle Receivables will not create
the batch.
• Receipts must have a status of either Approved or Confirmed to be included in a
remittance batch

Tax Accounting Process
Overview of Tax
Set up Receivables to use basic types of tax: Value Added Tax (VAT) or US Sales Tax.

VAT
Value Added Tax (VAT) is imposed on the supply of goods and services paid for by the
consumer, but collected at each stage of the production and distribution chain. The VAT charged
on a customer invoice is called Output Tax. Any VAT paid on a vendor invoice is called Input
Tax. The amount due each period can be described as follows:
Amount Due = Output Tax - Input Tax
Receivables provides a comprehensive solution for VAT reporting using standard and country-
specific reports.

Sales Tax
Sales tax in Receivables is based on the destination of the supply of goods or services. The
calculation of sales rates is automatic, and is based on the state, county, city, and zip code of
your customer's address and the tax rates assigned to each of these components. You can
override any tax rate through customer and product exemptions and you can compile periodic
sales tax returns using the US Sales Tax Report.
You can import address validation and sales tax rates from your tax vendor and use the Tax
Vendor Extension to integrate external tax calculation programs with Receivables and Oracle
Order Entry
EAS – Oracle Apps
Tax Accounting Process
Tax Accounting
 Set up Oracle Receivables to account for tax in a variety of ways. Depending on the
setup, Receivables automatically accounts for tax on invoices, credit memos, debit
memos, finance charges, earned and unearned discounts, adjustments, cash
applications, and miscellaneous transactions.
 Also set up Receivables to use deferred tax, an accounting method in which the tax
is deferred until payment for goods or services is received, rather than when the
transaction is created.
 Determine how Receivables accounts for tax on adjustments, discounts, finance
charges, and miscellaneous transactions by specifying accounting rules for
Receivables Activities and tax accounting information for tax codes.
 For each activity, Receivables automatically creates entries in the revenue,
expense, and non-recoverable tax accounts defined and creates all associated
payment schedules. By adjusting tax accounts with the gross, net, and tax amounts
created by these activities, Receivables records tax amounts according to the
accounting rules defined and helps correctly state the overall tax liability.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Types of Tax Accounts
Tax: This account records taxes collected from customers and any legal deductions
taken from these amounts.
Interim: This account records tax amounts for deferred tax codes. This account
records tax liability before payment is received for a transaction. For example, when
an invoice is created, Receivables creates an entry in this account for the invoiced tax
amount. When payment is applied to the open item, Receivables automatically
transfers the amount from the Interim account to the Tax account.
Expense/Revenue: Use this account to record net changes generated by
adjustments, discounts, and finance charges. Typically, Receivables activities such as
discounts and adjustments reduce the receivable amount, so they are considered an
expense.
Non-recoverable: This account records changes in the tax collected when the
amount cannot be taken as a deduction on taxes paid to the government. Use this
account for Receivables Activities of type Adjustment, Finance Charge, Earned
Discount, and Unearned Discount.

Tax Accounting Process
Calculating Tax
• Receivables gives the flexibility to implement tax solutions for Value Added Tax
(VAT) or Sales Tax systems.
• When calculating VAT, tax codes are assigned to customers, sites, and inventory
items. These tax codes are then used to control which VAT rate is applied to each
invoice.
• When calculating Sales Tax, the Customers ship-to address and any predefined
exceptions are used to control which Sales Tax rate to apply to the invoice.
• Both methods will take into account any customer and item exemptions defined.

Following are some of the major features of the Receivables tax engine.

Calculate Tax Based on Location


Receivables can calculate tax based on different components of the customers
shipping addresses for all addresses in the home country. To calculate sales tax,
choose a Sales Tax Location Flexfield structure that includes the components for
Receivables to use when calculating tax.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Calculating Tax
Calculate Tax Based on Codes
Receivables can also calculate tax based on tax rates assigned to user definable
codes. These tax codes can then be assigned to specific items, customers, and
customer sites.
Calculate Tax Based on Revenue Account
Set up the system to derive the tax code from the 'Account' segment of the
Revenue account. If the system is setup this way, Receivables will use this tax
code as the default when transactions are entered or imported. Also set up the
system to ensure that the default tax code is always derived from the Revenue
account.
Calculate Tax Externally
Receivables can integrate external tax calculation programs using the Tax Vendor
Extension. This provides for complex tax calculation needs while retaining the full
power of Receivables to create and store all other tax data.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Calculating Tax
Compound Tax
Create compound tax charges during invoice entry and import if the Compound
Taxes system option is set to Yes. Assign precedence numbers to indicate which
tax line you want Receivables to compound.
Credit Tax
When you credit a transaction that was previously taxed, Receivables will
automatically credit the original taxed amount, so you do not need to consider
any change in tax rates which may have occurred in the interim.
Calculate Multiple Tax Rates
Receivables lets you assign multiple tax rates and tax accounts to each invoice
line. You might want to distribute your tax amounts to different accounts for
reporting purposes.
Create Tax Groups
Define tax groups to apply multiple taxes to a transaction or line item. Within
each tax group, you can include one or more tax codes that Receivables applies
based on the transaction's Ship To location.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Calculating Tax
Create Tax Exemptions
Tax exemptions allow full or partial exemption of specific customers or items from
tax. Use exemptions in either a VAT or location based tax system. Define
exemptions either at the customer or item level, or specify them at the regional
levels.
Create Tax Exceptions
Tax exceptions are special tax rates that are assigned to items being shipped to
specific addresses. Tax exceptions are only used when location-based tax is
used (the Location Flexfield Structure is State.County.City). Create an exception
for specific items and shipping destinations.
Inclusive Tax
Enter and display transaction lines either inclusive or exclusive of tax. Tax
inclusive indicates that the line amount for an item includes the tax for this item.
Tax exclusive indicates that tax is not included in the line amount for this item.
Define both tax inclusive and exclusive tax codes in the Tax Codes and Rates
window.

Tax Reporting Ledger
 The Tax Reporting Ledger provides a single reporting solution for the complex global tax
requirements on sales and purchases and enables summarization of tax information
from Oracle Receivables, Oracle Payables, and Oracle General Ledger.
 Taxable transactions are accounted for in the base products following the country-
specific rules defined.
 The Tax Reporting Ledger consists of the tax information recorded in each of these
products 
 The Tax Reporting Ledger only supports multi-org environments.
 The Tax Extract copies the accounting information from each application and stores it in
an interface table. Use any reporting tool such as RXi and Application Desktop Integrator
(ADI) to specify which fields of the Tax Reporting Ledger to include and then print the
report in a format that meets needs.
 The Tax Reporting Ledger supports the following reports:
o Deferred Output Tax Register
o Excise & Quantity-based Taxes
o Recoverable and Non-Recoverable Tax Registers
o Single Cross Product Tax Register
o Standard Input and Output Tax Registers
EAS – Oracle Apps

Implementing the Tax Vendor Extension
 Receivables provides a Tax Vendor Extension to integrate external tax calculation
programs with Oracle Applications. This Extension provides for complex tax
calculation needs while retaining the full power of Receivables to create and store
all other tax data.
 The Tax Extension is called whenever a tax rate is calculated by the Receivables
Tax Engine. When implemented, the Tax Extension will return a tax rate or amount
from the vendor program. Receivables will use this information to create the
appropriate tax line(s) and related accounting information.
 Receivables lets you implement either the Taxware Sales/Use Tax System or the
Vertex Quantum tax vendor extension.

Implementing Value Added Tax
VAT is imposed on the value added to goods or services at each stage of their supply. The
VAT charged on a customer invoice is referred to as Output Tax. Any VAT paid on a
vendor invoice is referred to as Input Tax. The amount due each period can be described
as follows:
Amount Due = Output Tax - Input Tax

Major Features of VAT


Control and automatically record VAT charges on receivable invoices.
Using Receivables:
• Control VAT using both the inventory item and destination country (item method).
• Optionally control VAT from your Revenue Account (account method).
• Automatically calculate VAT for domestic, import, and intra-EU taxed transactions.
• Automatically calculate and account for multiple VAT regimes, levying additional taxes
such as Surcharges, Excise, and Sales Equalization taxes as required.

Tax Accounting Process
Value Added Tax – Definitions
Acquisition Tax
VAT on the acquisition of goods from a VAT Registered supplier in another EU
member state will be zero-rated. The receiver must account for VAT as both Input and
Output amounts at the VAT rate applicable for the same goods in the country that they
are received, giving a net VAT liability of zero. Oracle Implements Acquisition tax with
Oracle Payables using Offset Taxes.
Deferral
France, Italy and Russia allow the liability on Output VAT to be deferred until payment
has been collected on certain transactions. This is referred to as "Cash accounting for
VAT" and, if allowed, may be used in an accrual system.
Document Rounding
VAT amounts are typically calculated once per tax code within an invoice. Receivables
controls tax codes at the document line, but allows VAT amounts to be rounded at the
document header or line.
Domestic Transaction
Transactions between registered traders in the same EU (European Union) country.
Domestic transactions have VAT charged on goods and services with different
countries applying different VAT rates to specific goods and services.
EAS – Oracle Apps
Tax Accounting Process
Value Added Tax – Definitions
Input VAT: The tax charge on the receipt of taxable goods and services (e.g. tax on
supplier invoices or expense items). Input VAT should be reported wherever you account
for expenditures. Input VAT is usually deductible.
Intra-EU, Taxed Transactions: Transactions between non-registered traders in different
EU (European Union) countries. VAT must be charged to customers within the EU if you do
not know their VAT registration number. The destination country and inventory item
controls which VAT rate to use.
Intra-EU, Zero-Rated Transactions: Transactions between registered traders in different
EU (European Union) countries. An Intra-EU transaction is zero rated if and only if you
know the customer's VAT registration number; otherwise, VAT must be charged on the
invoice.
Japanese Consumption Tax: The Value Added Tax (VAT) paid on any expense (Input
VAT) is usually recoverable against the VAT Charged on revenue (Output VAT). This
ensures that VAT is not inflationary within a supply chain.
Natural Account: The segment of your accounting flexfield that you assign the qualifier
'Natural Account'. This segment indicates whether the Accounting Flexfield is an Asset,
Liability, Equity, Revenue, or Expense account. In Receivables, the Natural Account
typically identifies the Revenue account.
EAS – Oracle Apps
Tax Accounting Process
Value Added Tax – Definitions
Non-Deductible Input VAT: The VAT amount paid on expense items that may not be
reclaimed against Output VAT. Usually, all items purchased for a business are deductible.
Certain high value purchases, (for example, luxury cars for an executive's spouse) may be
considered non-deductible. For small companies, service or items of value to both the
owner and business may be partially non-deductible.
Output VAT: The tax charge on the supply of taxable goods and services (e.g. tax on
customer invoices or revenue items). Output VAT should be reported wherever you
account for sales.
Recargo de Equivalencia: An additional tax levied in Spain on specific types of
businesses. The rate of tax is related to the primary rate of VAT for the item sold.
Tax Engine: A collection of programs, user defined system parameters, and hierarchical
flows used by Receivables to calculate tax.
VAT Regime: A set of VAT rules and rates applicable to a well defined set or type of
transactions. In Europe, the most common VAT regimes are Domestic, Import, and Inter-
EC. However, many countries have additional regimes for special geographical regions or
types of businesses.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Value Added Tax – Definitions
VAT Classification: Each country classifies VAT into a small number of rates. Following are the
five basic classes of VAT:
•Standard: The majority of transactions are classified at a Standard rate. In Europe,
the Standard rate of VAT varies between 12-25%.
•Reduced: A lower rate of tax for specific goods or services. For example, within the
EU, the reduced rate is applied to consumption of domestic fuel and power.
•Luxury: A higher than standard rate of tax, normally applied to a very limited set of
goods or services.
•Zero: Zero-rated, gross sales are reported separately from exempt rated transactions.
•Exempt: Exempt from VAT. Gross sales are reported separately from zero-rated
transactions.

 Receivables provides a comprehensive solution for US Sales Tax requirements,
including the calculation of sales tax based on the state, county, city, and zip code
components of the customers' addresses.
 Override any tax rate through customer and product exemptions and compile
periodic sales tax returns using the US Sales Tax Report.
 Additionally, integrate Receivables with external tax software vendors through the
Tax Vendor Extension.

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
US Sales Tax – Major Features
Customer Address Validation
Receivables provides the State.County.City Sales Tax Location Flexfield for US Address
Validation. If used, this structure will ensure that the State, County, and City fields are required
on customer addresses within your home country. Given data from the Tax Vendor, Customer
Address entry can default the State, County and City fields automatically from the entry of the 5
digit ZIP code. If a given zip code is identified in multiple locations, Receivables will list only
those applicable, allowing a quick and simple identification of the correct jurisdict

Customer Exemption Certificates


Awarded by the state, a Customer Exemption Certificate allows a customer to be fully or partially
exempt from paying Sales Tax. Another type of exemption includes exemptions by statute, such
as sales to the US Government. Typically, Customer Exemption Certificates are recorded for the
bill-to Customers who are shipping to a specific state. Receivables uses effectivity dates and
approval statuses to ensure your tax department has full visibility and control.
Receivables provides a Tax Handling field for each transaction line that you can use to record
and control how exemption certificates are applied. Receivables lets you fully or partially exempt
customers or items from US Sales Tax. Period end reporting includes summaries of tax exempt
amounts categorized by exempt reason within each state

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
US Sales Tax – Major Features
Integration with Oracle Order Management

During the Order process, applicable exemption certificates will be automatically applied to
the order. These controls are also available in AutoInvoice and the Receivables
Transaction workbench.
If the profile option Tax: Allow Override of Customer Exemptions is set to Yes, optionally
override the default tax handling to require tax on a transaction that is normally exempt or
to exempt a customer who normally would be charged tax. When AutoInvoice creates the
transaction in Receivables, an exempt order will automatically create an unapproved
exemption certificate, if one is not found.
If AutoInvoice creates unapproved exemptions, account for the sale prior to obtaining the
paper certificate. Update the status of an exemption certificate from Unapproved to Primary
in the Tax Exemptions window. A certificate that is marked as Primary will be automatically
applied to all future transactions for this bill-to customer, when shipping to the state for
which this exemption is created.

Preparing to Load Sales Tax Rates
To ensure that the Sales Tax Rate Interface works correctly, complete the following
steps before loading sales tax records into Receivables:

Verify the Sales Tax Location Flexfield Structure – When the Tax Interface
program is used for the first time, navigate to the Key Flexfields window and verify that
the Sales Tax Location Flexfield structure is frozen and compatible with the location
and tax rate data being loaded into Receivables. This step needs to be performed only
once.
Perform Backup of Sales Tax Information – Before loading sales tax data into
Receivables, perform a backup of the location and tax rate information. Perform this
step every time the Sales Tax Rate Interface program is executed. This information is
stored in the following tables:
• AR_LOCATION_VALUES
• AR_LOCATION_RATES
• AR_LOCATION_COMBINATIONS
• AR_SALES_TAX

EAS – Oracle Apps


Tax Accounting Process
Preparing to Load Sales Tax Rates
Clear Tax Interface Table
Verify that the AR_TAX_INTERFACE table does not contain any records. The SQL
loader control scripts aravp.ctl and arvertex.ctl will clear all existing tax rate
information before loading a new set of locations and rates. Either use these scripts to
clear existing records or truncate the table AR_TAX_INTERFACE manually using the
TRUNCATE command. Perform this step every time the Sales Tax Rate Interface
program is executed.
Verify and Define Tax Table Storage Parameters
Perform this step every time the Sales Tax Rate Interface program is executed. Verify

Sales Tax Rate Interface Validation
 If the Sales Tax Rate Interface program identifies a record in the interface table that
has invalid data, then the program will not pass this record into Receivables location
and tax rate tables.
 Each location loaded into the tax interface table must have a unique location ID
associated with it. This unique location ID enables the Sales Tax Rate Interface
program to distinguish between different locations even if the same name appears
more than once in your tax data.
 All locations which are junior to other locations must identify their parent through the
parent location ID. The Sales Tax Rate Interface program will only load a tax record
into Receivables if it has a parent, unless it is a senior location.
