Profile Option

Profile Option Name Description

Defines which aging bucket setup to be used. If no value set, it will
AR: Aging Buckets for ECC use “statement” by default. This profile option should only be set at
site level.
Defines closed transaction and receipt load range. For example, if
set as “30”, transaction and receipt closed in last 30 days will be
AR: History Range for ECC
retrieved; else if no value set, it will load record closed in the past 91
days by default.

Data Load

Payables Command Center Data Load

• Full Load
- Can be scheduled to run upon
business need
- Supported languages mandatory
• Incremental Load
- Will update all payables transactions
- Languages inherited from last
successful full load

20
Oracle Receivables Command Center
Data Load

When submitting payables command center

data load request
• A child request will be submitted
automatically to load DFF metadata
• Another child request will be submitted
automatically to load Payables information

21
Oracle Receivables Command Center
Implementation Tips and Best Practices

Determine the optimal time to schedule the receivables command center data load (full load) based on
business needs
• Should be outside normal business hours
Determine the appropriate dates to schedule the receivables command center data load (incremental
load)
• Should be on a daily basis

22
Oracle Receivables Command Center
Implementation Tips and Best Practices

Need to run receivables command center full data load

• For any changes in the aging template (profile) and history range
Need to run receivables command center incremental data load
• On daily basis to update aging and related details for receivables transactions

23
Oracle Receivables Command Center
Troubleshooting Tips

Data load concurrent program “Receivables Command Center Data load” failed
• The profile option "AR: Aging Buckets for ECC“ is not set up correctly.
- Set the appropriate value for the profile (90 day)
- To fix the issue, you should run receivables command center full load

 Oracle Receivables Command Center – Period Close Dashboard
Issues Encountered

Issue #1: Receivables Command Center Data load Concurrent program is not available for
Receivables Manager
The Concurrent program “Receivables Command Center Data Load” doesn’t show up for Receivables Manager

Probable Cause:
▪ The Concurrent Program definition doesn’t exist
Resolution:
▪ Ensure that the latest financials patch is applied in EBS

Issues Encountered

Issue #2: Receivables Command Center Data load takes too much time
Receivables Command Center Data Load takes too much time
Probable Cause:
▪ Performance issue due to SQL Query performance or ECC data ingestion
Resolution:
▪ Analyze the load statistics from ECC Admin UI to identify where most of the time is spent
▪ If most of the time taken in SQL query execution, check SQL performance by enabling SQL trace for the data load
Concurrent program

46

Issues Encountered

Issue #3: Pages show no data

Receivables Command Center page show no data
Probable Cause:
▪ Data load concurrent program “Receivables Command Center Data load” failed or not yet completed
▪ The profile option AR: Aging Buckets for ECC or AR: History Range for ECC is not defined
Resolution:
▪ Run Full load for Oracle Receivables Command Center using “Receivables Command Center Data load” Concurrent
Program after defining the AR: Aging Buckets for ECC and AR: History Range for ECC profiles.

Issues Encountered

Issue #5: Aging bucket doesn’t take effect

Transaction aging bucket information on the page is not as expected.
Probable Cause:
▪ Profile option "AR: Aging Buckets for ECC“ is not set up correctly.
Resolution:
▪ Verify whether site level value of profile ‘AR: Aging Buckets for ECC’ point to newly defined aging bucket and run the
Receivables Command Center data load concurrent program for Full Load.

48
 Oracle Receivables Command Center
Issues Encountered

Issue #6: DFF Attributes are not showing in Available Refinements

Why DFF attributes are not showing under available refinements?
Probable Cause:
▪ There is only one record/transaction available.
▪ DFF attributes not enabled in EBS for the specified flex field.
Resolution:
▪ Make sure that there should be more than one record / transaction.
▪ Enable the DFF attributes in EBS for the specified flex field.
