Inbound Shipments for Brazil

Oracle Receiving is part of a comprehensive process flow to ensure fiscal documents are compliant with the requirements of receiving items in a Brazil inventory organization.

We use fiscal documents for Brazil inventory organizations to document trade between suppliers and customers. The fiscal document serves as a bill of lading to detail the quantity of items transported from the supplier to the customer. It also serves as a proxy invoice from the supplier that documents the material costs, supplier charges, and taxes payable by the customer.

This topic covers these features for Brazil inbound shipments:

  • Inbound process flow compliance

  • Receiving tasks for Brazil

Inbound Process Flow Compliance

The inbound process flow ensures compliance with Brazilian fiscal document processing requirements. The fiscal document validation process is the key process in the fiscal document management system. A positively validated fiscal document assures the authorities that the parties, items, and taxes applicable to the receipt are correct.

The validation process ensures that:

  • The parties in the receipt transactions are duly registered for fiscal purposes.

  • The items and their prices correspond to that on the purchase order.

  • Federal, state, and municipal taxes reported in the fiscal document for received goods have been correctly calculated.

The following apply when Fiscal Document Capture is implemented:

  • Once the fiscal document is approved, Fiscal Document Capture populates the receipt interface with the details required to create a receipt. This enables Receiving to create a formal receipt.

    Note: A receipt is not created in Receiving until the fiscal document validation process is completed.
  • Receipt creation happens through Fiscal Document Capture directly in Receiving, without any manual intervention at the end of receiving. You cannot create a receipt through the Receiving or Self-Service Receiving user interface.

  • Once a receipt is created, you cannot update the receipt details in any way.

  • You cannot create unordered receipts in the Brazil organization.

  • You cannot update the fiscal document number and receipt quantities directly in Receiving. The Fiscal Document Capture system is the source of truth for item receipt quantities.

Receiving Tasks for Brazil

The following actions are available from the Receipts work area for managing Brazil inbound shipment transactions that are enabled for fiscal document capture:

  • Inspect Receipts

  • Put Away Receipts

    Note: You cannot update the Quantity field for Brazil organizations.
  • Return Receipts

    Note: You can only return to supplier for Brazil organizations.
  • Review Receipt Interface

  • Quality Inspection Results

When Oracle Fiscal Document Capture is implemented, you can view inbound shipments on the Manage Inbound Shipments page. However, you cannot edit any of the details for the shipment or shipment line.

Since a receipt is created only after the fiscal document is validated, you cannot correct the received quantity.
