How can I send bill lines to Accounts Receivable

You can send bill lines to Oracle Accounts Receivable by either:

  • Running the Send Subscription Billing Information to Receivables scheduled process
  • Using the Action > Send Bill Lines to Receivables on the subscription landing page or on the subscription products page to directly send bill lines to Accounts Receivable

You can use the Send Bill Lines to Receivables action when a subscription or subscription product is in one of these statuses:

  • Active
  • Under amendment
  • Closed
  • Expired

The administrator must enable the action before you can see it in the UI. See the section later in this topic for more information.

On the Billing Summary tab, the Sent Date column displays the date that a bill line was sent to Account Receivables. This field is disabled by default. To enable this field, see the Enable Sent Date in Billing Summary topic.

Note: Closed and on-hold products lines aren't sent to Accounts Receivable during the Send Subscription Billing Information to Receivables process, even if the subscription is active. This process only looks at productstatus and not at subscription status. It only sends data from products data, not from subscriptions.

Restrict Send Bill Lines to Receivables Option

  3. Click Navigator > Configuration > Application Composer.
