Prepare Cancel Transactions for the Creation of Credit Memos

Run the process to send partner contribution cancel transactions to Receivables in preparation for the creation of credit memos. The process includes only those transactions that are in Ready to Cancel status.

Note: Before you run this process, make sure you have posted the partner contribution invoice that the credit memo is being created for. Also, an application implementation consultant must set up the AR_USE_INV_ACCT_FOR_CM_FLAG profile option with at least one profile value. See Determine Whether You Need to Derive Accounts for Credit Memos for more information.
