• Oracle Receivables Integration Overview You can configure Public Sector Compliance and Regulation to integrate with Oracle Receivables. This enables your agency to generate miscellaneous receipts for payments received and handled by Public Sector Compliance and Regulation (PSCR), and send them to Oracle Receivables. In future releases, invoicing will be available through the integration between PSCR and Oracle Receivables. Oracle Receivables Setup Your Oracle Receivables setup determines the values that you’ll use when defining receivables options for your agency. For more information on setting up Oracle Receivables, see Implementing Receivables Credit to Cash Public Sector Compliance and Regulation Setup You configure the integration within PSCR at three levels: AgencyEnable the integration with Oracle Receivables at the agency level. You add receivable receipt options to establish receipt methods and remittance names for the payment methods that your agency accepts. In addition, you define an agency-level receivable activity name. For more information on the agency-level setup, see Setting Up Agency Receivable Options. Record TypeDefine the record type-level receivable activity name. For more information on the record type-level setup, see Setting Up Record Type Receivable Options. Fee ItemDefine the fee item-level receivable activity name. For more information on the fee item-level setup, see Setting Up Fee Item Receivable Options. Miscellaneous Receipt Creation When the integration is enabled at the agency level, PSCR automatically generates a miscellaneous receipt for each payment line associated with a processed payment and sends it to Oracle Receivables. Note: PSCR will not create miscellaneous receipts for any migrated payment data or payments processed before the integration was enabled. PSCR assigns a receipt method and remittance name to each receipt based on the receipt options defined for each payment method at the agency level. It assigns a receivable activity name based on the following hierarchy: If a receivable activity name is defined for a fee item and record type then PSCR assigns that value when creating miscellaneous receipts for all payment history lines that have the same fee item and record type. It ignores receivable activity names defined at the record type or agency level. If a receivable activity name is defined for a fee item and all record types then PSCR assigns that value when creating miscellaneous receipts for all payment history lines that have the same fee item. It ignores receivable activity names defined at the record type or agency level. If a receivable activity name is defined for a record type then PSCR assigns that value when creating miscellaneous receipts for all payment history lines that have same record type. It ignores receivable activity names defined at the agency level. The receivable activity name defined for an agency is the default value that PSCR assigns to payment history lines that don’t match receivable options defined at the record type or fee item level. PSCR uses the payment reference ID to create the miscellaneous receipt numbers that it passes to Oracle Receivables. It strips out the four-letter and underscore prefix, and appends an underscore and number for each payment history line associated with the payment reference ID. For example, for the payment reference ID DRCD_20201029T143300767Z640574, which includes two payment history lines, PSCR would pass two receipt numbers: 20201029T143300767Z640574_1 and 20201029T143300767Z640574_2. If there’s a problem with your integration setup for a payment, PSCR gives it a Receivables Receipt Status of Error. Once you correct the source of the error, you can go to the Payment History Details page for the payment and generate the miscellaneous receipt manually. For more information, see Viewing Payment History.
