Set Up Transaction Numbering

Transaction numbering consists of the following setups:

  • Document sequence setup

  • Delimiter setup

Set Up Document Sequence

Create all transactions with a sequence name and number to comply with the country tax reporting requirements. Use the standard document sequencing feature to meet this requirement. To implement the standard document sequencing feature for all or part of the issued invoices, you must complete the document sequence setup for Receivables.

Tip: Select the Copy document number to transaction number option for the transaction source to use the document sequence name and number for your transaction numbering through standard functionality in any of your batch sources. If you want to report transactions numbers that are created by the third-party transaction source, don't select the Copy document number to transaction number option for the transaction source.

To define the document sequence for Receivables, do the following steps:

  1. On the Setup and Maintenance work area, search for the Manage Transaction Sources task.

  2. Click Edit. The Edit Transaction Source page opens.

  3. In the Source Defaults section, select the Copy document number to transaction number option, and click Save.

You can also define document sequences for your Payables invoices on the Manage Document Sequences page. However, you can't submit these values to the tax authorities.

Note: Transaction numbers are defined as a document sequence name, followed by a delimiter and the document sequence number. You can define the character for the delimiter by using the ORA_JEES_SII_DELIMITERS lookup type.

Set Up Delimiter

To create transaction numbers using the document sequence name and number, do the following:

  1. From the Setup and Maintenance work area, navigate to the Manage Standard Lookups page.

  2. In the Lookup Type field, search for ORA_JEES_SII_DELIMITERS.

Ensure that you have enabled only one of the following delimiter values:

  • ORA_ASTERISK

  • ORA_COLON

  • ORA_COMMA

  • ORA_FORWARD_SLASH

  • ORA_HYPHEN

  • ORA_PERIOD

  • ORA_PIPE

  • ORA_SEMICOLON

  • ORA_SPACE

  • ORA_UNDERSCORE

Note: The delimiter setup doesn't impact the format of the transaction numbers created by the third party system for the imported invoices.
