Creating Oracle Receivable Receipts

Run the Create Oracle Receivables Receipt process to generate receipts in Oracle Receivables for each payment line associated with a payment processed in Oracle Permitting and Licensing.

The process 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:

  1. If a receivable activity name is defined for a fee item and record type then the process assigns that value when creating 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.

  2. If a receivable activity name is defined for a fee item and all record types then the process assigns that value when creating 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.

  3. If a receivable activity name is defined for a record type then the process assigns that value when creating receipts for all payment history lines that have same record type. It ignores receivable activity names defined at the agency level.

  4. If a receivable activity name is not defined by record type or fee item then the process assigns the receivable activity name defined at the agency level.

The process uses the payment reference ID to create the receipt numbers in 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, the process would pass two receipt numbers: 20201029T143300767Z640574_1 and 20201029T143300767Z640574_2.

If there’s a problem with your integration setup for a payment, the Create Oracle Receivable Receipt process gives it a Receivables Receipt Status of Error. Once you correct the source of the error, you can run the process again.

Access the Create Oracle Receivables Receipt page from the navigator by selecting Billing and Payment > Oracle Receivables Receipt.
