Complete these post-install steps for Oracle Financials for the Americas installations.
Attach core Financials menus to localization menus.
Attach new responsibilities to users.
Argentina or Colombia: Enable the Invoice Distribution Withholdings window.
A responsibility and menu hierarchy were created for each country that has localization features; however, the menus for these responsibilities do not include any core Financials product menus. You must add core Financials product menus to the Oracle Financials for the Americas localization menus to use core functionality.
Use the Menus window to add core Financials product menus to the base menus for the responsibilities listed in this table:
| Country | Localization Responsibility | Localization Base Menu |
|---|---|---|
| Argentina | Argentine Payables | JL_AR_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 |
| Argentina | Argentine Receivables | JL_AR_AR_NAVIGATE_GUI |
| Argentina | Argentine Fixed Assets | JL_AR_FA_MAIN |
| Argentina | Argentine General Ledger | JL_AR_GL_SUPERUSER |
| Brazil | Brazilian Payables | JL_BR_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 |
| Brazil | Brazilian Receivables | JL_BR_AR_NAVIGATE_GUI |
| Brazil | Brazilian General Ledger | JL_BR_GL_SUPERUSER |
| Brazil | Brazilian Inventory | INV_NAVIGATE |
| Brazil | Brazilian Purchasing | JL_BR_PO_NAVIGATE_GUI |
| Chile | Chilean Payables | JL_CL_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 |
| Chile | Chilean Receivables | JL_CL_AR_NAVIGATE_GUI |
| Chile | Chilean Fixed Assets | JL_CL_FA_NAVIGATE_GUI |
| Chile | Chilean General Ledger | JL_CL_GL_SUPERUSER |
| Colombia | Colombian Payables | JL_CO_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 |
| Colombia | Colombian Receivables | JL_CO_AR_NAVIGATE |
| Colombia | Colombian Fixed Assets | JL_CO_FA_MAIN |
| Colombia | Colombian General Ledger | JL_CO_GL_SUPERUSER |
| Mexico | Mexican Fixed Assets | JL_MX_FA_MAIN |
Note: The Brazilian Inventory responsibility already accesses the standard product menu.
Use this table to determine which core Financials menu to add to the localization base menu for each of the responsibility types:
| For this responsibility type. . . | Add this menu. . . |
|---|---|
| Oracle Assets | FA_MAIN |
| Oracle General Ledger | GL_SUPERUSER |
| Oracle Inventory | INV_NAVIGATE |
| Oracle Payables | AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 |
| Oracle Purchasing | Purchasing SuperUser GUI |
| Oracle Receivables | AR_NAVIGATE_GUI |
Example: Add Oracle Payables base menu to Argentine Payables base menu
This example shows how to add a core Financials product menu to a localization base menu.
Navigate to the Menus window from the System Administrator responsibility.
Query the localization menu. In this example, query the JL_AR_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 Argentine Payables menu.
Enter the appropriate core Financials menu in the Submenu field. In this example, enter AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 for Oracle Payables.
Enter appropriate values in the Navigator Prompt and Description fields. In this example, enter Oracle Payables.
You can access new responsibilities once you have installed localizations. The localized responsibilities for each country are organized by product.
With the exception of the Brazilian Inventory responsibility, which accesses the standard product menu, each localized responsibility has a localized menu and request group that provide access to country-specific functionality. Menus in country-specific responsibilities provide access to the country's windows; request groups provide access to the country's reports.
You must attach relevant responsibilities to the applications users to access localization functionality. If you create custom menus, use the country-specific menus attached to the localization responsibilities listed in Attach Core Financials Menus to Localization Menus as a guide for granting users access to localization functionality.
To create new applications users, or to add or modify responsibilities for existing applications users:
Log on to the System Administrator responsibility.
Navigate to the Users window.
Enter information for your users.
You should use country-specific responsibilities only when the relevant countries are fully installed. All functionality is designed and built for a specific country. Oracle supports country-specific functionality only for intended countries; functionality built for one country but used for another is not supported.
If you are using other base product responsibilities, or you have customized your own, refer to Appendix B, Oracle Financials for the Americas Request Groups as a guide for implementing your report security groups.
If you plan to use the withholding tax solution that was built for Oracle Payables for Argentina or Oracle Payables for Colombia, your system administrator must enable the Invoice Distribution Withholdings window off the Tools menu for your Argentine or Colombian Payables responsibilities.
To enable the Invoice Distribution Withholdings window:
Navigate to the Menus window.
In the Menu field, query the localization base menu that you want. Use JL_AR_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 for Argentina or JL_CO_AP_NAVIGATE_GUI12 for Colombia.
Navigate to a new line.
In the Function column, enter the menu function Define Invoice Distribution Withholdings.
