Freezing All Bills of a File Group

Oracle Revenue Management and Billing provides you with the ability to freeze and complete adhoc bills generated for the usage data files of a file group from the On Demand Billing screen. You can either freeze and complete all or selected adhoc bills, whenever required. However, you cannot freeze and complete normal or regular bills from the On Demand Billing screen.

Procedure

To freeze and complete all adhoc bills generated for a file group:

  1. Search for the file group in the On Demand Billing screen.
  2. In the Search Results section, click the Freeze and Complete (The Complete Bill Icon) icon corresponding to the file group whose adhoc bills you want to freeze and complete.

    The Complete Bill window appears. It contains the following fields:

    Field Name Field Description Mandatory (Yes or No)
    Bill Date Used to specify the date on which the bill was completed. Yes
    Accounting Date Used to specify the accounting date of the bill. Yes
  3. Enter the required details.
  4. Click OK in the message box.

    A batch job is created using the Freeze and Complete Adhoc Bills (C1-FCADH) batch. A message appears indicating the batch job ID. This batch job freezes and completes all adhoc bills of the usage data file which are in the Pending status. The system does not freeze and complete pending adhoc bills which have bill segments in the Error status. For more information on the Freeze and Complete Adhoc Bills (C1-FCADH) batch, see Oracle Revenue Management and Billing Batch Execution Guide.

    Note:

    On successful completion of the Freeze and Complete Adhoc Bills (C1-FCADH) batch, a To Do entry is created using the C1-FCADH To Do type. You can view this To Do entry when you are assigned a To Do role which is mapped to the C1-FCADH To Do type. This To Do indicates whether the batch was successfully executed or not. If the batch was successfully executed, it indicates the following:

    • Number of bills which were picked up for completion

    • Number of bills which were completed

    • Number of bills which could not be completed successfully

    Once the batch is executed successfully, the status of the bills is changed to Complete.
