Oracle Account Receivable (AR) Functional Training Guide

Overview
Brief the module overview including oracle standard flow and its applicability in EBS suite. Overview should be in details mentioning the all functionality provided by oracle and
its shared entities as well as its integration with other modules.

Entering Transactions:
Use the Transaction window to enter your invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and commitments. You can also query and update your transactions in this window and review
your transactions in the Transactions Summary window.

The procedure for entering invoice is shown below.

Enter Invoice or Debit Memo:


Use the Transaction window to enter your invoices, debit memos, credit memos, and commitments. You can also query and update your transactions in this window and review
your transactions and chargeback in the Transactions Summary window. When you enter an invoice, Receivables uses the A/C Code defined in the Transaction Type or Auto
Accounting rules to determine the default General ledger accounts. You can enter transactions one at a time or in a group called a batch. Your system administrator determines
whether you can delete a transaction. However you can override these accounts which are by default populated through this account generator.

Navigation : Transaction (N) ->Transactions

Step# 1: Transaction Batch Sources


Batch sources control the standard transaction type assigned to a transaction and determine whether Receivables automatically numbers your transactions and transaction batches.
Active transaction batch sources appear as list of values choices in the Transactions, Transactions Summary, and Credit Transactions windows, and for bills receivable in the Bills
Receivable and Bills Receivable Transaction Batches windows.

8/16/23, 10:31 AM Oracle Applications: Oracle Account Receivable (AR) Functional Training Guide

Step# 2: If your batch source does not specify Automatic Invoice Numbering, enter a transaction Number. Otherwise, Receivables assigns a number when you save. If you are
adding transactions to a batch, the transaction number must be unique within this batch.

Step# 3: Enter the Date and Currency of this transaction. The default date is either the batch date or, if there is no batch information, the current date. The default currency is either
the currency entered at the batch level or your functional currency, but you can change it to any currency defined in the system. If the currency is different from your functional
currency, and you have not defined daily conversion rates, enter exchange rate information.

Step# 4: Choose a class of Invoice or Debit Memo

Step# 5: Choose a transaction Type with a class of Invoice or Debit Memo

Step# 6: Select Customer "Bill to Site" name and location for this transaction from list of value.

Step# 7: Enter the payment Terms for this transaction. Receivable calculates the Due Date based on the payment terms and date of this transaction

Receivables use the following hierarchy to determine the default payment terms, stopping when one is found:
· Customer Bill-To site level
· Customer address level
· Customer level
· Transaction Type

Step# 8: Enter any special instruction or comments (Optional)

8/16/23, 10:31 AM Oracle Applications: Oracle Account Receivable (AR) Functional Training Guide

Step# 9: If you are using manual sequence numbering, open the More tabbed region, then enter a unique Document Number. Otherwise, Receivables assigns a document number
when you save.

Step# 10: Open the Remit To tabbed region, and then enter the Remit To Address for this transaction. The default is the remit-to address assigned to the country, state, and postal
code combination for this customer's address.

Step# 12: To enter Freight information for this transaction, choose Freight

Step# 13: To enter the goods or services to bill to this customer, choose Line Items, and then enter the Item, Quantity, and Unit Price for each item. Receivables automatically
calculates the total Amount for each line

Step# 14: Select the tax code form list of value mentioned in the field tax classification.

Step# 15: Accounting Entries


Once the transaction in completed the invoice can be sent to the customer for collection. The system will generate the following accounting entries. For example you have invoiced
the customer for Rs 69.93/- for one-year period.
-->Receivable Dr 69.93
      -->Revenue Cr 49.95
      -->Revenue Cr 19.98
To review or update accounting information, choose "Distributions".

Step# 16: Save your work. If you are ready to complete this transaction then press "Complete" button to change the transaction status to "Complete" and make it available for
inquiry, receipt application and other uses.

Entering Credit Memo


Stand-alone credit notes can be issued to the customer for recording returns, write off or any other business reason. The procedure is as explained below.
Use the Transaction window to enter credit memos. You can also query and update your transactions in this window and review your transactions.

Customer Overview
Use the Customers set of pages to manage customer information in Oracle Receivables. You create customers so that you can properly record and account for sales transactions, as
well as all other attributes of your selling relationships. Recording a sales transaction requires that a customer has been created as a party in Oracle Trading

Community Architecture has an account as well as an account site. Consequently, to understand the role of a customer in the context of your trading community, you should also
understand other concepts such as party, customer account, and account site.

· Party: An entity that can enter into a business relationship, such as buying and selling, and can be of the type Organization or Person. A party exists separately from any business
relationship that it enters into with another party.
· Customer: A party, either an organization or person, with whom you have a selling relationship.

Navigation : Customer(N) -> Customer

8/16/23, 10:31 AM Oracle Applications: Oracle Account Receivable (AR) Functional Training Guide

· Customer Account: A customer account represents the attributes of the business relationship that a party can enter into with another party. The account has information about the
terms and conditions of doing business with the party. You can create multiple customer accounts for a party, to maintain information about different categories of business
activities.

· Sites/Addresses:
§ A location is a point in space described by an address.
§ A party site is the location where a party is physically located. Every party has only one identifying address, but a party can have multiple party sites.
§ An account site is a party site that is used in the context of an account. An account can have multiple account sites.
§ A customer address is an account site that is used for billing, shipping, or other purposes.

· Contact: A person who communicates for or acts on behalf of a party or customer account. A contact can exist for a customer at the account or address level. A person usually acts
as a contact for an organization, but can also be a contact for another person. For example, an administrative assistant could be the contact for an executive.

Monthly Transactions
d) Transfer to General Ledger
You create accounting entries for invoices and other transactions in Oracle Receivables using the Oracle Sub ledger accounting architecture.

Oracle Sub-ledger Accounting is a rule-based accounting engine, toolset, and repository that centralizes accounting across the E-Business Suite. Acting as an intermediate step
between each of the sub-ledger applications and Oracle General Ledger, Oracle Sub-ledger Accounting creates the final accounting for sub-ledger journal entries and transfers the
accounting to Oracle General Ledger.

You have two programs to transfer the Receivable accounting to General Ledger Namely.

Create Accounting
The Create Accounting program creates and transfers journal entries. In general, the parameters described in the table below determine which accounting events are processed.

Create Accounting Program Parameters


Parameters   Description
Ledger Required; limits accounting events selected for processing to those of a particular
ledger
Process Category Optional; restricts the events selected for accounting to a particular process
category. ( Transactions , Adjustment , Standard Receipts etc)
The Create Accounting program selects events with event types falling into the
event classes Assigned to the process category.
End Date Required; end date for the Create Accounting program; processes only those events
with  event dates on or before the end date
Mode Required; determines whether the sub ledger journal entries are created in Draft or
Final mode
If Draft mode is selected, then the Transfer to GL, Post in General Ledger, and
General Ledger Batch Name fields are disabled. Draft entries cannot be transferred
to General Ledger.
Errors Only Required; limits the creation of accounting to those events for which accounting has
previously failed
If Yes is selected, the Create Accounting program processes all events with a status
of Error.
Report Required; determines whether to generate a report showing the results of the Sub
ledger Accounting program in summary or detail format
Transfer to General Ledger Required; if Mode is set to Final; determines whether to transfer the sub ledger
journal entries to General Ledger, Journal import is launched if set to Yes.
Post in General Ledger Required; if Mode is set to Final or Create Accounting is set to No; determines
whether to post sub ledger journal entries in General Ledger
General Ledger Batch Optional; user-entered batch name that appears on the transferred General Ledger
Name sub ledger journal entries. Transfer to GL option must be set to Yes.
Include User Transaction Required; controls whether the report displays user identifiers' names and values.
Identifiers

Submit Accounting
Whenever you run the Submit Accounting program, Receivables first runs the standard Revenue Recognition program with same parameters that are used in Create Accounting
Program.

a) Accounts Receivable Period End Close
Open and close accounting periods in your calendar to control the recording of accounting information for these periods. Receivables lets you open future accounting periods while
your current period is still open. Receivables also lets you reopen previously closed accounting periods and enter receivables activities without transferring transactions to the
general ledger when you set your accounting periods to 'Future.'

Define your receivables calendar in the Accounting Calendar window. Receivables reference the statuses of these accounting periods to control transaction entry and journal entry
creation to your general ledger.

You cannot enter an activity in a closed accounting period.


Navigation : Control (N) -> Accounting -> Open/Close Periods

Period Status
An accounting period can have one of the following statuses:
Closed: Journal entry, posting, and transaction entry are not allowed unless the accounting period is reopened. Receivables verify that there are no unposted items in this period.
Receivables do not let you close a period that contains unposted items.

A. Maintenance Activities
Transaction Types
Use transaction types to define the accounting for the debit memos, credit memos, on-account credits, chargeback, commitments, invoices, and bills receivable you create in
Receivables. Transaction types also determine whether your transaction entries update your customers' balances and whether Receivables posts these transactions to your general
ledger.

If Auto Accounting depends on transaction type, Receivables uses the general ledger accounts that you enter here, along with your Auto Accounting rules, to determine the default

revenue, receivable, freight, tax, unearned revenue, unbilled receivable, finance charges, and Auto Invoice clearing accounts for transactions you create using this type. For bills
receivable, the accounts that you enter here determine the bills receivable, unpaid bills receivable, remitted bills receivable, and factored bills receivable accounts for a bill
receivable.

You can associate transaction types with your invoice sources in the Transaction Sources window to speed data entry in the Transactions and Credit Transactions windows. Active
transaction types appear as list of values choices in the Transactions, Reverse Receipts, Credit Transactions, and Transaction Sources windows, and for bills receivable in the Bills
Receivable and Receipt Classes windows.

You can also define credit memo and invoice transaction types to use with Auto Invoice.
You should define your transaction types in the following order:
· Credit memo transaction types
· Invoice, Debit memo, and Chargeback transaction types
· Bills receivable transaction types
· Commitment transaction types

You must define your invoice transaction types before you define your commitment types.

You can change most of the values here but its recommended not to change the Name of the Transaction type, the change will we applicable to the new transaction not the existing
ones.

Payment Terms
Receivables lets you define standard payment terms for your customers to specify the due date and discount date for their open items. Payment terms can include a discount
percent for early payment and you can assign multiple discounts to each payment term line. For example, the payment term '2% 10, Net 30' indicates that a customer is allowed a
two percent discount if payment is received within 10 days; after 10 days, the entire balance is due within 30 days of the transaction date with no applicable discount.

You can define balance forward payment terms to bill customers periodically (daily, weekly, or monthly) at the account or site level using balance forward billing. The balance
forward bill for a billing period shows the previous balance carried over from the last billing period, payment received, current charges and activities, and current total outstanding
balance.

You can also create split payment terms for invoice installments that have different due dates.

You can use payment terms to determine the amount of each installment. Receivables lets you either distribute tax and freight charges across all installments, or allocate all freight
and tax amounts in the first installment of a split term invoice. You can use prepayment payment terms to indicate which business transactions require prepayment for goods and
services. Receivables displays the active payment terms you define as list of values choices in the Customers, Customer Profile Classes, and Transactions windows

Receivables Activity
Define receivables activities to default accounting information for certain activities, such as miscellaneous cash, discounts, late charges, adjustments, and receipt write-off
applications for a complete list of activities.

Activities that you define appear as list of values choices in various Receivables windows. You can define as many activities as you need.

The Tax Code Source you specify determines whether Receivables calculates and accounts for tax on adjustments, discounts, and miscellaneous receipts assigned to this activity. If
you specify a Tax Code Source of Invoice, then Receivables uses the tax accounting information defined for the invoice tax code(s) to automatically account for the tax. If the
Receivables Activity type is Miscellaneous Cash, then you can allocate tax to the Asset or Liability tax accounts that you define for this Receivables Activity.

Receivables uses Late Charges activity's accounting information when you record late charges as adjustments to overdue transactions Query the Chargeback Adjustment activity
that Receivables provides and specify GL accounts for this activity before creating chargebacks in Receivables.

Query the Credit Card Chargeback activity that Receivables provides and specify a GL clearing account for this activity, before recording credit card chargebacks in Receivables.

You can make an activity inactive by unchecking the Active check box and then saving your work.

Once you define an activity, you cannot change its type. However, you can update an existing activity's GL account, even if you have already assigned this activity to a transaction.

Receipt Classes
Define receipt classes to determine the required processing steps for receipts to which you assign receipt methods with this class. These steps include confirmation, remittance, and
reconciliation. 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.

Receivables uses the receipt method you assign to a receipt class to determine how to account for receipts you create using this receipt class.

For each receipt class, you can specify a creation method, remittance method, and whether to require bank clearance for receipts that you assign to this class. If you are defining a
receipt class whose creation method is Bills Receivable, then Require Confirmation, Remittance Method, and Clearance Method are disabled. If you are defining a receipt class
whose creation method is Automatic, then the Remittance Method cannot be No Remittance.
