OPTIONAL UPTAKE OF NEW FEATURES (OPT IN)
Oracle Cloud Applications delivers new updates every quarter. This means every three months you'll receive
new functionality to help you efficiently and effectively manage your business. Some features are delivered
Enabled meaning they are immediately available to end users. Other features are delivered Disabled meaning
you have to take action to make available. Features delivered Disabled can be activated for end users in a
couple of ways:
Access the Opt In page from the New Features Work Area
1. Click the Navigator, and then click New Features (under the My Enterprise heading)
2. On the New Features page, select the offering that includes new features you’d like to review
3. Click Go to Opt In for any feature you want to opt in
4. On the Edit Features page, select the Enable option for the feature, and then click Done
or... Access the Opt In page from the Setup and Maintenance Work Area
1. Click the Navigator, and then click Setup and Maintenance

2. On the Setup page, select your offering, and then click Change Feature Opt In
3. On the Opt In page, click the Edit Features icon for any area that includes features you want to opt in
4. On the Edit Features page, select the Enable option for any feature you want to opt in to. If the Enable
column includes an Edit icon instead of a check box, then click the icon, select your feature options, and
click Save and Close.
5. Click Done.
Opt In Expiration
Occasionally, features delivered Disabled via Opt In may auto enable in a future update. This is known as an
Opt In Expiration. If your cloud service has any Opt In Expirations you will see a related tab in this
document. Click on that tab to see when the feature was originally delivered Disabled, and when the Opt In will
expire, potentially auto enabling the feature. You can also click here to see features with Opt In Expirations
across all Oracle Cloud Applications.

FEATURE SUMMARY
Column Definitions:
Report = New or modified, Oracle-delivered, ready to run reports.

UI or Process-Based: Small Scale = These UI or process-based features are typically comprised of minor field, validation, or program changes. Therefore, the potential
impact to users is minimal.
UI or Process-Based: Larger Scale* = These UI or process-based features have more complex designs. Therefore, the potential impact to users is higher.
Customer Action Required = You MUST take action before these features can be used by END USERS. These features are delivered disabled and you choose if and when
to enable them. For example, a) new or expanded BI subject areas need to first be incorporated into reports, b) Integration is required to utilize new web services, or c) features
must be assigned to user roles before they can be accessed.
New Features Delivered Ready to Use New Features That Customer Must Take Action to
(Delivered Enabled) Use (Delivered Disabled)

REST APIS FOR FINANCIALS
GENERAL LEDGER
REST APIS FOR JOURNALS
Use the Journals REST API resource to mark journals for reversal. When the AutoReverse process runs, it will
reverse all journals that are marked for reversal using the Journals REST API.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Review the REST service definition in the REST API guides (available from the Oracle Help Center > your
apps service area of interest > REST API). If you are new to Oracle's REST services you may want to begin
with the Quick Start section.
KEY RESOURCES

return account balances in detail mode
return budget and encumbrance balances in both summary and detail mode
Use the Account Group Balance rest service to:
to return account groups that are budget based

to return account combination details and amount type
STEPS TO ENABLE

> your apps service area of interest > REST API) . If you are new to Oracle's REST services you may want to
begin with the Quick Start section.
KEY RESOURCES

14
PAYABLES
REST APIS FOR SUPPLIER INVOICES

View and update scanned supplier invoice information. For example, add or delete invoice lines, add or delete
attachments, delete an invoice. You can also calculate taxes or create distributions for invoices.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Review the REST service definition in the REST API guides to leverage (available from the Oracle Help Center
> your apps service area of interest > REST API) . If you are new to Oracle's REST services you may want to
begin with the Quick Start section.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
You can build integrations to:
Achieve your PaaS application requirements such as retainage, reverse factoring arrangements, or
placing invoices on hold.
Create and manage purchase orders, receipt and consumption advice matched supplier invoices, and
unmatched supplier invoices.
Create and manage cross-currency and multi-period accounting related supplier invoices.
Capture additional localizations information for the invoice header, lines, distributions, and installments
using global descriptive flexfields.
Capture tax determinants such as intended use and transaction business category for tax calculation
purposes.
Add lines to existing manually entered invoices. Perform operations on budgetary control enabled
invoices.
NOTE:
If you are creating invoices for Americas localizations, then you will have to pass the values for global
descriptive flexfields, as currently the values do not default for this region.
If you are updating an invoice, then you can only update certain attributes and the update applies only to
those attributes. Related fields do not automatically get populated. For example, when you update the
invoice date in the Create or Edit Invoice pages, related fields, such as the terms date or due date, may be
automatically populated based on the invoice date you enter. Using REST API, the invoice date is
updated, but the related fields are not automatically populated. Before updating a key attribute, consider
the impact on the related attributes.

ASSETS
STREAMLINE COPY OF FIXED ASSET ADJUSTMENTS AND TRANSFERS TO TAX BOOK
Select the transaction convention at the asset category level for adjustment to allow transfer transactions to be
defaulted into the tax book. For backdated addition and adjustment transactions, choose the first day of the
current tax book period as the transaction date when these transactions are copied from the corporate book to
the tax book.
Use the Adjustment Convention and Transfer Convention fields on the Default Rules tab in the Edit Category
page to enable the transaction convention at the book level for Russia and Poland books. Transactions are
entered in the corporate book with any transaction convention. The Perform Periodic Mass Copy process
defaults the transaction convention from the category setup, while copying these transactions from the
corporate book.
16

BUDGETARY CONTROL
ADDITIONAL BUDGETARY CONTROL LIQUIDATION VALIDATION

Add additional validation to ensure a commitment or obligation is liquidated in the same control budget as
originally reserved. This feature will fail budgetary control validation with the funds status of ‘Budget period
does not exist in the control budget’ when the liquidation of the commitment or obligation impacts a different
control budget than the original reservation.
STEPS TO ENABLE
of this document.
Offering: Financials
Feature: Additional Budgetary Control Liquidation Validation
New Customer Installations:
This feature defaults with Opt-In enabled. Budgetary control validation will fail if a liquidation budget
period doesn’t exist in the same control budget as the original reservation.
There are no additional setup steps required to use this feature.
18
Upgraded Customer Installations:
This feature defaults with Opt-In disabled. Budgetary control validation will pass if a liquidation budget
period doesn’t exist in the same control budget as the original reservation.
To Opt-In, select the Enable option for the feature on the Edit Features page.
There are no additional setup steps required to use this feature.

Careful consideration should be given to using this new feature validation, as the additional validation
may change the transaction lifecycle if your organization:
Doesn’t carry forward open purchase orders
Doesn’t surplus funds at the end of your budget cycle
Creates annual budgets
The liquidation date is determined by the Default Date Rule setting on the Manage Budgetary Control
page. The default date rule can be set to the system date, current transaction budget date, or prior
related transaction budget date. This feature is only applicable when you have chosen system date or
current transaction budget date for the default date rule. Prior related transaction budget date will use the
same budget date as the original transaction.
The following example shows how the feature will impact the budgetary control results depending on the
default date rule setting.

SUBLEDGER ACCOUNTING
EXPORT AND IMPORT SUBLEDGER ACCOUNTING SETUP DATA IN BATCHES

Export and import high volume Subledger Accounting setup data with improved scalability and performance.
The setup export and import services automatically group setup data in batches and generate multiple data files
to facilitate migration of high volume setup data. You can export setup data as a configuration package or a csv
file. Export and import in batches is enabled for the following services:
Journal Entry Rule Sets Service

Mapping Sets Service
Account Rules Service
Description Rules Service
For exporting, a single zip file is generated to include all the setup data. Then you can download the zip file and
import it into the target instance.
36
If a subledger accounting rule is in both the source and target instance, the rule in the target instance is
replaced with the same rule exported from the source instance. However, when a mapping set is imported to a
target instance, the mappings that are already in target instance but not in the source instance remain in the
target instance.
The task order for the following task lists are also modified to facilitate export and import in batches.
Manage Accounting Rules

Define Subledger Accounting Methods
Define Accounting Rules for Rapid Implementation
Define Transaction Accounts
STEPS TO ENABLE
The configuration package exported from a source instance prior to 19C may not be imported to a 19C
instance. Hence, you must first upgrade the source instance to 19C and then export the setup data. Finally,
import the setup data to target instance with same release.
If you are planning to migrate subledger accounting rule setup from one instance to another instance after
upgrading to 19C, it is recommended to perform the following steps:
37
To migrate setup using configuration package:
1. Create a new implementation project, which includes subledger accounting rule set up tasks and
set scope to the subledger for which you wish to export the setup.
2. Create a new configuration package with the new implementation project.
3. Export setup for the configuration package.
4. Download the configuration package zip file.
5. Upload the configuration package zip file to the target 19C instance and import the setup.
To migrate setup using csv export:
1. Export setup component in csv format from the source instance.
2. Download the csv file.
3. Upload the setup csv file to the target instance that is also on same release and import the setup
data.
USE A FORMULA IN ANOTHER USER-DEFINED FORMULA IN ACCOUNTING SETUP

Define a formula by using an existing user-defined formula to derive a value for a subledger accounting entry.
Define the commonly used formulas and reuse them in other formulas for consistency and ease of
maintenance.
For example, to defer revenue recognition for loan origination fee over the life of the loan, you need a formula to
prorate the fee amount by number of days in each period.
You must take the total fee amount and divide it by the number of days in the loan life to determine a daily fee
amount. You then multiply the daily fee amount by the number of days since loan origination to generate the
prorate fee amount to be recognized by the current period.
Prorated fee = Fee / Loan duration * Days since origination
First, you need to calculate loan duration and days since origination from the available source.
Loan duration = Maturity date - Origination date + 1
Days since origination = Last day of current accounting period - Origination date +1
Where, maturity date and origination date are transaction data from source system, last day of current
accounting period is a system source.
Instead of defining one complex formula like this:
Prorated fee = Fee / (Maturity date - Origination date + 1) * (Last day of current accounting period - Origination date + 1)
You can define simple formula to calculate loan duration and days since origination. Then, use them in the
prorated fee formula definition.
38
1. Create a user-defined formula to calculate loan duration.
2. Create another user-defined formula to calculate days since origination.
3. Now, let's create a formula to calculate the prorated fee amount using the above formulas.
a. In the Expression section of the prorated fee formula, click the Source button..
b. Search and select the formula defined in previous steps to define the prorated fee formula.
39
You can now use the prorated fee formula to derive the entered amount on the fee revenue recognition
multiperiod journal line.
The Create Multiperiod Accounting process calculates entered amount for the multiperiod entries as:
Entered amount = Prorated fee - Multiperiod recognized entered amount
Where, multiperiod recognized entered amount is calculated and stored in the Accounting Hub data model as
the total amount recognized for the transaction in prior periods.
40
STEPS TO ENABLE
In your formula definition, you can’t use a formula that uses another formula.
For example, the following formula is invalid because the formula 'Prorated Fee' already uses another formula
'Loan Duration'.
Prorated
Fee * 10 / 100

COPY TAX COMPLIANCE ATTRIBUTES TO PAYABLES INVOICES FOR INDIA
Use the Copy Tax Compliance Attributes to Payables Invoices for India feature to experience improved
accuracy and efficient processing in claiming the input tax credit for India GST. The feature automatically
populates the tax determinants from the purchase order or the receipt lines to the matched Payables invoices.
This ensures that the tax determinants are available when the recoverable taxes are processed and accounted.
Here’s what you can do with this feature:
When you create a receipt or a purchase order matched Payables invoice, the first-party tax registration
number and third-party tax registration number are automatically populated to the invoice’s India
Regional information line GDFs from the purchase order or receipt lines. This, in turns allows you to
comply with the India GST transactional requirements and process recoverable taxes based on the first-
party tax registration number.
When you create a receipt matched Payables invoice, the tax invoice number and tax invoice date are
automatically populated to the invoice’s India Regional information line GDFs from the receipt lines based
on the tax fiscal document provided by supplier of inbound transactions.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Before you apply this feature, ensure that the Regional Localization for India checkbox is enabled in the
Functional Setup Manager.

1. When you create a transaction, ensure that the taxation country is India.
2. When you create a receipt matched payables invoice, ensure that all matched receipt lines have the
same first-party tax registration number.

tax registration number of the receiving or purchase trade organization on requisitions and purchase orders.
You can now experience improved accuracy in tax calculation and efficient processing in claiming input tax
credits for India GST, which are based on the first-party tax registration number.
Here’s what you can do with the Default First-Party Tax Registration Number for India feature:
Use the first-party tax registration number as a transaction tax determinant in tax rules to calculate the
applicable taxes and process the recoverable taxes.
47
Avoid manual intervention in deriving the first-party tax registration number of the receiving or purchase
trade organization on requisitions and purchase orders.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Before applying the feature, ensure that Regional Localization for India checkbox is enabled in the Functional
Setup Manager.

organizations on purchase order lines or schedules are associated to the legal reporting units with the
same first-party tax registration number.

charge supplies, internal material transfers, and import of goods.
