Transfer Transactions from Receiving to Costing

Use the Transfer Transactions from Receiving to Costing scheduled process to transfer purchase order and transfer order receipt information to Cost Management.

Receipt information is input into Oracle Receipt Accounting for reconciling receipt accrual amounts, determining uninvoiced receipt quantity or amount (service purchases) and receipt accrual accounting.

When to Use

The Transfer Transactions from Receiving to Costing scheduled process should be scheduled to run at least once per day to ensure receipt accounting and cost accounting are up to date with timely receipt information. This process can also be run more often than once per day depending on business needs such as prior to decision points, at end of day, or on a cadence such as after peak receipt processing activities are completed.

You can coordinate the schedule of this process to run in parallel with the Transfer Costs to Cost Management process and the Transfer Transactions from Inventory to Costing process. You should run this in coordination with the frequency and timing of the downstream scheduled processes Create Receipt Accounting Distributions and Create Cost Accounting Distributions, and also in coordination with the scheduled processes Create Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals and Match Receipt Accruals. You should schedule this process such that it is completed just prior to running the coordinated downstream processes. You can use process sets to coordinate this scheduled process with parallel and downstream processes.

Troubleshooting Information

  • You can view the status of the process on the Scheduled Processes page. If the process status is error, select the row and click the log and output attachment on the Process Details tab. Download the log and output file. Share the files with support to log a service request. The scheduled process request log prints the error message that was raised by the program and includes additional information that is helpful to Oracle when creating the service request.
  • You can check the value of the ACCRUAL_STATUS_CODE column in the RCV_TRANACTIONS table. If Receiving hasn’t processed the transaction, the value of this column is PENDING. If Receiving has processed the transaction, the value of this column is INTERFACED.
  • The request execution log displays the organization and number of transaction lines selected for processing. You can also view the time it took for processing the records.
  • This scheduled process interfaces all receiving transactions required by the Receipt Accounting Interface for all inventory organizations.
