Voucher Definition in Oracle Receivables

The company wants to use Oracle General, Oracle Payables, and Oracle Receivables for the accounting period 1996, assigning to all manually entered active invoices, credit memos, encashments and customer balances rectifications entries (for example, allowances, losses) separate voucher number sequences. The company has two offices entering invoices. To easily identify which office has carried out each entry, the company decides to have a double sequence of documents, identical but characteristic of each office.

The company decides to define the following new documents:

1. Active invoices - office A

2. Active invoices - office B

3. Credit memos - office A

4. Credit memos - office B

5. Adjustments - office A

6. Adjustments - office B

7. Encashments - office A

8. Encashments - office B

The company decides to define the following vouchers:

FATATT_96_
For all active invoices (Documents 1 and 2)
NOTECR_96_
For all credit memos (Documents 3 and 4)
AGGIUS_96_
For all adjustments (Documents 5 and 6)
INCASS_96_
For all encashments (Documents 7 and 8)
Voucher Definition and Oracle Receivables Hints

Always choose a name that easily identifies the entry type (taking into account the maximum printable size, which is 14 characters). In addition, choose a name that is easy to update every year.

Before you start to define the structure, you must set the Sequence Numbering profile option to Always Used using the System Administrator responsibility.

The next transactions must be implemented with the same responsibility.

Use the standard functionality in the Define Document Categories window to define documents according to the following scheme:

1. Active invoices - office A

2. Active invoices - office B

3. Credit memos - office A

4. Credit memos - office B

Use the Define Receivable Activity window (Receipts > Receivable Activity) in Oracle Receivables to define the following:

5. Adjustments - office A

6. Adjustments - office B

Use the Define Payment Method window (Setup > Receipt > Method) to define the following:

7. Encashments - office A

8. Encashments - office B

Ensure that the Name you enter coincides exactly with the value defined in the Form Code field in the Define Document Categories window under the System Administrator responsibility.
