Freight Fiscal Documents for Inbound Flow

You can capture, process, and validate the following:

  • Freight fiscal documents for inbound purchases

  • Freight complementary fiscal documents for tax and price

You can do the following:

  • Automatic reference of freight fiscal documents to standard fiscal documents and allocate charges to receipts.

  • Automatic invoice creation.

  • Calculate recoverable tax on the freight fiscal document in Accounts Payable.

  • Costing and accounting of allocated freight charges adjusted to include recoverable tax for receipts.

You can work with the freight fiscal document and its compliance as follows:

The process starts when the freight company generates a freight fiscal document and sends this document to the buying organization, typically on a monthly basis referencing all the standard fiscal documents for which freight service was provided. This fiscal document is typically received from the service provider in a structured XML-formatted file which is loaded into and transformed by the Oracle Fusion Cloud Collaboration Messaging Framework service. In situations where the service provider only provides a printed copy of the fiscal document, you can enter and edit the fiscal document information directly in the Manage Fiscal Documents page. The Oracle Fusion Cloud Collaboration Messaging Framework service allows communication with SEFAZ, the Brazilian fiscal authority, to confirm the validity and status of the received fiscal document.

Upon validation, the charges in the fiscal document is allocated to the PO receipts recorded against the referenced standard fiscal documents to ensure that:

  • receipt cost is adjusted for the specific freight charges

  • an invoice for the freight service is created directly in the Payables work area

  • any recoverable amount on the taxes levied on the freight document are calculated

Upon validation, charges from the fiscal document are directly allocated in the cost management application. Costing and accounting of the freight charges including the nonrecoverable taxes are done to create the receipts.
