After you log on to Oracle System Administrator, complete the following steps to set up your Oracle Applications:

Create Accounts for Implementors to Complete Setting Up
Create individual Oracle Applications accounts for users who will be completing the implementation of your Oracle Applications. Assign these users the full access responsibilities for the products they will be implementing.
Create New Responsibilities (Optional)
A responsibility in Oracle Applications is a level of authority that determines how much of an application’s functionality a user can use, what requests and concurrent programs the user can run, and which applications’ data those requests and concurrent programs can access. Oracle Applications provides a set of predefined responsibilities that you can use. You can also define your own responsibilities if the ones provided do not meet your needs.
Set Up Oracle Applications Manager
Oracle Applications Manager (OAM) allows you to configure and maintain many components of the Oracle Applications system.
Define Your Concurrent Managers (Optional)
Concurrent Processing is a feature of Oracle Applications that lets you perform multiple tasks simultaneously. Oracle Applications Concurrent Processing lets you run long, data-dependent functions at the same time as your users perform online operations. Concurrent managers are components of concurrent processing that monitor and run your time-consuming tasks without tying up your computers.
Oracle Applications automatically installs one standard concurrent manager that can run every request. You may want to take advantage of the flexibility of concurrent managers to control throughput on your system.
You can define as many concurrent managers as you need. Keep in mind, however, that each concurrent manager consumes additional memory.
You can specialize each of your concurrent managers so that they run all requests, requests submitted by a particular user, requests submitted by a particular application, or other constraints, or any combination of these constraints.
If you are using Parallel Concurrent Processing in a cluster, massively parallel, or homogeneous networked environment, you should register your Nodes and then assign your concurrent managers to primary and secondary nodes. You can spread your concurrent managers, and therefore your concurrent processing, across all
available nodes to fully utilize hardware resources.
Use the Define Concurrent Manager form to define new concurrent managers
Define Request Sets (Optional)
A request set is a group of reports or programs which you submit with one request. To define and maintain request sets, use the Request Sets form.
Specify Preferences for Oracle Workflow Notifications (Required)
The SYSADMIN user is the default recipient for some types of notifications in Oracle Applications, such as error notifications. You need to specify how you want to receive these notifications by defining the notification preference and e-mail address for the SYSADMIN user.
By default, the SYSADMIN user has a notification preference to receive e-mail notifications. To enable Oracle Workflow to send e-mail to this user, navigate to the Users window and assign SYSADMIN an e-mail address that is fully qualified with a valid domain. However, if you want to access notifications only through the Oracle
Workflow Worklist Web page, then you should change the notification preference for SYSADMIN to “Do not send me mail” in the Preferences page. In this case you do not need to define an e-mail address.
Set Up AuditTrail (Optional)
If you want to keep track of the changes made to your data by application users, you should set up AuditTrail for the relevant tables.
Defining AuditTrail for your site involves defining Audit Groups, which are groups of tables and columns for which you intend to track changes. You then define Audit Installations to instruct AuditTrail which ORACLE IDs you want to audit. Finally, you run the Audit Trail Update Tables Report, which allows your AuditTrail definitions to take effect.
Set Up Your Printers
You must define any printer types used at your site that are not shipped with Oracle Applications, then register each printer with its name as determined by your operating system.
For every custom printer type or specialized print style you define, use the Printer Drivers form to assign a printer driver to use with each print style used by a printer type Specify Your Site-level and Application-level Profile Options
Use the System Profile Values form (Profile > System) to set site-level and other profile optons..
Optionally set your Site Name profile option to your site name. Many profile options are set by AutoConfig and their values can be reviewed in Oracle Applications Manager.
Define Internationalization Options (Optional)
Optionally define settings for internationalization features.
Modify Language Prompts (Optional) : If you want to modify the field name displayed in the Translations window, you should change the Description value for the language you want to modify in the Languages window.
Modify Territory LOV Values (Optional) : If you want to modify the territory value displayed in LOVs, you should change the Description value for the territory you want to modify in the Territories window.

Oracle Applications has the capability to restrict access to a responsibility based upon the Web server from which the user logs in. This capability is provided by tagging Web servers with a “server trust level.”
The server trust level indicates the level of trust associated with the Web server.
Currently, three trust levels are supported: 1) administrative, 2) normal, and 3) external.
Web servers marked as “administrative” are typically those used exclusively by system administrators. These servers are considered secure and may contain highly sensitive  information. Servers marked as “normal” are those used by employees within a company’s firewall. Users logging in from normal servers have access to only a limited
set of responsibilities. Lastly, servers marked as “external” are those used by customers or employees outside of a company’s firewall. These servers have access to an even smaller set of responsibilities.
Setting the Server Trust Level for a Server
To assign a trust level to a Web server, set the Node Trust Level profile option. The Node Trust Level profile option uses the Server profile hierarchy type, meaning that the value of the profile depends on the particular middle-tier server accessing the profile.
This profile option can be set to either 1, 2, or 3, with the following meanings.
• 1 – Administrative
• 2 – Normal
• 3 – External
To avoid having to set the Node Trust Level profile option for every Web server, you may wish to set it to a default level of trust at the site level, such as level 1. If no value is set for the Node Trust Level profile option for a Web server, the Web server is assumed to have a trust level of 1 (Administrative).
Restricting Access to a Responsibility
To restrict access to a responsibility, set the security-based Responsibility Trust Level (internal name APPL_SERVER_TRUST_LEVEL) profile option value for that responsibility to be the number 1, 2, or 3. Setting this profile value ensures that only Web servers with the same or greater privileged trust level may access that responsibility.
Like the Node Trust Level profile option, the default value for the Responsibility Trust Level is 1.
When fetching the list of valid responsibilities for a user, Oracle Applications checks to find only responsibilities with a Responsibility Trust Level value greater than or equal to the Web server’s Node Trust Level. In this way, a responsibility with Responsibility Trust Level set to 1 would only be available if the Web server has the Node Trust Level set to 1 as well. A responsibility with Responsibility Trust Level set to 2 would only be available if the Web server has Node Trust Level set to either 1 or 2.
Maintaining Invoice and Credit Memo Transactions
In oracle Receivables transaction can be reviewed an updated after creation regardless of whether the transaction was created manually or imported using ‘Auto Invoice’.There are exceptions to this and some system options and profile options have to be set.

If the Allow change to printed transactions system option is ‘Yes’ you can update most of the transaction information, even if the transaction has been printed. However if there is activity against the transaction, you will not be able to make changes to many of the transaction attributes. Activity includes actions such as payments, credit memos, adjustments and including transactions on a consolidated billing invoice.

After your transactions have posted to your General Ledger, you can still update most of information. Receivables maintains a complete audit trail of all the posted changes you make to your accounting entries.

Receivable does not maintain an audit trail when you change a transaction that has not been posted.

Also what can be changed depends on various attribute settings on the transaction.
In addition to updating transactions, you may find the need to delete or void a transaction. Again, there are circumstances under which deleting or voiding a transaction can be accomplished.

Transaction Field Reference
When reviewing the tables, you will notice the tables indicate the field reference in down the left side of the table with the conditions going across the rows. Within the rows is the indication as to whether this field reference can be updated or not any exceptions that must be considered. By using these tables you will resolve many of your own issues as to why a user cannot update particular field on an invoice or credit memo.

When reviewing the update table you will note there are two sections, header and line levels.

Once you save the transaction, you cannot update the transaction number.

Additionally here are some profile options and system options that effect maintaining transactions.

System options can be set as follows

Setup/System/System Options/Trans and Customers Tab

Set allow change to printed transactions to Yes

Profile Options can be set as follows

Using the system administrator responsibility

Profile/System
Site level
Query in the field for the profile of choice. Some profile options that affect maintaining transactions are

AR: Update Due
AR: Change Customer on Transaction
Allow update existing sales credits
Sequential Numbering – Make the options is not null at all levels, has to contain a value at least one level.

Delete or Void Transactions
Deleting or voiding transactions can be accomplished depending on how your administrator has setup function security on you Oracle Receivables.
If the allow change to Printed Transactions system options is set to Yes and transactions have no activity against them, then the transaction have no activity against them, then the transactions can be removed by one of the following methods:
By delete record from the edit menu. This will delete invoice and any lines.
Invoice with rules cannot be deleted but you can create a credit memo and apply it to the invoice. The credit memo will create a credit entry offsetting the invoice debit entry.
Void the invoice by changing the invoice type in the Transaction window to a type with the Open Receivables and Post to GL options set to No. This will delete the payment schedule and cancel the distributions by removing the GL Date.
Delete the payment schedule by choosing incomplete button in Transaction window. This makes the invoice inaccessible for payment or crediting.

Maintaining Transactions Navigation
Navigate to the Transactions or the Transactions summary window:

Transactions/Transactions
Query the Transaction.
Change the transaction type to ‘void’ transaction type
Save

Transaction Table Information
Invoice : When an invoice is created the Header information is written to the RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_ALL table. Changes to any of the header information such as the customer invoice line information is written to RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES_ALL, RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL, AR_PAYMENT SCHEDULES_ALL and RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_SALEREPS_ALL.

RA_CUST_TRX_LINES_ALL holds line details, what and how much is being invoices a nd what tax is applicable.
RA_CUST_TRX_LINES_GL_DIST_ALL stores information that need to be posted across General Ledger.
AR_PAYMENT_SCHEDULES_ALL keeps running totals of the Invoice amounts for line,tax and freight. Record both the original amounts and the amounts remaining.
RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_SALEREPS_ALL stores who get credited for the sale represented by the invoice.

Credit MemoCredit memos are stored in the same tables as the invoices. RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_ALL hold the credit memo header information similar to that of the invoice credit memo line information is t stored in RA_CUST_TRX_LINES_ALL, RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL, AR_PAYMENT SCHEDULES_ALL, AR_RECEIVABLE_APPLICATIONS_ALL
RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES ALL holds credit memo line detail information.

AR_Receivable_Applicaitons_all- stores how much of the credit memo is applied

Revaluing Foreign Currency Balances
Asset and Liability accounts that are entered in foreign currencies must be revalued every period in accordance with FAS52 (Financial Accounting Standards). The Revaluation program adjusts the value of the balance sheet accounts based on current period exchange rates. It then generates revaluation journals with adjustments to the defined unrealized gain/loss account. The Revaluation program generates adjustments in the Functional Currency. If you have a Reporting Set of Books you must run revaluation once for each Primary and Reporting Set of Books. The Revaluation generates a revaluation batch containing a separate journal for each foreign currency. The revaluation batch automatically has its reversal period set to the next accounting period. When you run revaluation for the next accounting period, you must reverse and post the last accounting periods revaluation batch first.

You get to the Revalue balances form by following navigation path

Currency->Revaluation

Translating Foreign Currency BalancesThe Translation process translates actual and budget account balances to another currency in accordance FAS52. The translation program uses three different exchange rates: period-average, period end, and historical. The translation program translates asset and liability accounts using the period end exchange rate, ownership/stockholder equity accounts using the historical exchange rate, and revenue and expenses accounts using period average exchange rate. The period average exchange rate is the average rate of all daily rates across the entire accounting period.

The profile option GL: Owners equity transaction rule effects how ownership stockholders equity account balances are translated. If the profile option is set to PTD, the net activity accounts of the accounting period are translated, then added to the corresponding prior period balances. If the profile set to YTD the balances, not the activities are translated and the translated amounts are the YTD Balances. There is no need to add the balances to previous balances.

Navigation Currency-> Translation

Multiple Reporting Currencies
Multiple Reporting Currencies allows you to maintain accounting transactions in more than one functional currency. MRC is set up by creating one or more Reporting Set of Books.

MRC need if
Your company is located a member state of EMU and would like to report financial data, including transaction level data, in both your functional currency and the Euro.

You must regularly report financial data including transaction level data in more than one currency because your company is multinational.

MRC Works for following modules
Assets, CashManagment, Cost Management , General Ledger, Payables, Projects, Purchasing, Receivables.

MRC works differently depdning on whether you enter the transaction inn Oracle Subledger or Oracle GL. When you enter transaction in subledgers the accounting transactions are translated into the Reporting set of books as you enter the transaction. When you transfer to Oracle GL, you must transfer to both the primary set of books and the reporting set of books you should post the transferred subledgers accounting transactions to the primary set of books as well as to all reporting set of books.

When you enter transactions in GL, the journal entries entered in the Primary Set of Books are not translated immediately into any reporting Set of Books, when the Journal entries are posted
In the Primary Set of Books it will transferred to reporting Set of Books. In the reporting Set of Books you can post, revalue , translate and consolidate.

You can write off unapplied cash receipt balances. Receipt write off functionality is Provided to account for small overpayments that you do not intend to refund or maintain as unapplied amounts or On account balance.

With this function you can choose to write off an unapplied cash receipt amount within certain limits to a specific general ledger account. The write off amount is credited to this account such as miscellaneous revenue account, and no longer reflected as an unapplied amount on the receipt or on the customer account.

Receipt write offs do not change receipt amounts nor do they affect customer balances or general ledger cash account entries. Receipt write offs can be processed for cash receipts only.
You cannot write off amounts from miscellaneous receipts.

You can write off individual unapplied receipt amounts during receipt application or later, or any time using the application window. You can also write off balances of multiple receipts in mass
using the create receipt write off option.

Receipt Write-off Setup
The following information must be set up before you can process any receipt write-offs:

Receipts write off receivable activity

Define one or more receivable activities with an activity type of Receipt Write off. Each time an unapplied receipt amount is written off, a receipt write off type receivable activity must be selected. For Receipt write off receivable activities the GL Account source must be specified as Activity GL Account. Select a valid general ledger account number as the Activity GL Account. Select valid general ledger account number as the Activity GL Account. This account will be credited for the receipt write off amount. This account may represent a miscellaneous revenue account or expense account.

Navigation Setup – Receipts – Receivable Activities.

b) Receipt Write off user approval limits
Define approval limit ranges for document type Receipt write off for all users who will be allowed to write off unapplied receipt amounts. When you write off an unapplied receipt amount, Receivable uses approval limits that have a document type of Receipt Write off. You cannot write off an unapplied receipt amount that is outside your approval limit or outside the system Maximum Write off amount. You can only write off positive amounts; therefore Receipt write off from amount limits cannot be less than zero.

Navigations

Setup/Transaction/Approval Limits

Define the system level maximum write off amount for a single receipt in your functional currency. No users can write off unapplied receipt amounts that are greater than the system maximum even if their user limits allow it.

****** Therefore the system maximum overrides user approval limits when necessary user allows it. There fore the system maximum overrides user approval limits when necessary.

Navigation: Setup>System>System Options (T) Miscellaneous

c) How to Manually Write off Receipt Amounts

The manual receipt write off process gives you the flexibility to write off unapplied amounts when you enter and apply a receipt or later any time. You can enter multiple receipt write off lines in the Application window for a single receipt provided that the total write off amounts for the receipt does not exceed your receipt write off user approval limits or the system maximum write off user approval limit or the system maximum write off amount.

NOTE: When you write off an unapplied amount on a foreign currency receipt, Receivables uses the same exchange rate information from the original receipt for the write-off application record. If you adjust the exchange rate of a foreign currency receipt, Receivables reverses the write-off with the original exchange rate and then applies the new exchange rate to a new write-off application record. Receivables completes this process only if the converted amount does not exceed the user approval limit for receipt write-offs or the system Maximum Write-off Amount. If the converted amount exceeds either of these limits, then the write-off amount is left as an unapplied amount.

To manually write-off a receipt amount:

Navigation Receipts- Receipts or Receipt- Batches

Enter a new cash receipt or query an existing cash receipt.

Choose application button. (You cannot process receipt write offs using the Mass apply button)

Verify that the unapplied amount for the receipt is greater than zero.

In the Apply To field, select Receipt Write-off.

In the Amount Applied field (you may have to scroll to the right to see this field), enter the unapplied amount to
be written off. (Receivables validates the value you enter is less than or equal to the unapplied amount for the
receipt, is within your user write-off approval limit, and does not exceed the system Maximum Write-off Amount.)

In the Activity field, select a Receipt Write-off type receivables activity.

Save your work. The unapplied amount on the receipt should now be reduced by the write-off amount.

How to Write off Receipt Amounts in Mass

The automatic receipt write-off process gives you the ability to write-off multiple small unapplied receipt amounts with minimal manual intervention to individual receipt records. Unapplied amounts can be written-off based on amount or by percentage. When you submit the Automatic Receipt Write-off request, a concurrent program creates the write-off records.

Note: Always use the Generate Report Only option to preview the receipt amounts you want to write off before submitting the update. You can only reverse write-off receipt amounts by manually unapplying each receipt writeoff from the Applications window.

To create an automatic write-off:

Navigation
Create Receipt write off window
Control- >create receipt write off

In the Selection region, enter the currency of the receipts to write off. Receivables considers receipt amounts for write off only if they are in the same currency as entered here. The default value is your functional currency if the user write-off approval limit has been defined for the functional currency. You can change the default value to another currency.
Enter either an unapplied amount or unapplied amount percentage, or both. Although you can enter any amounts in these fields, Receivables will not select unapplied receipt amounts for write-off if they exceed the user write-off approval limits or system Maximum Write-off Amount.
– If you enter an unapplied amount, Receivables selects unapplied receipt amounts that are less than or equal to this value and that meet the other selection criteria.
– If you enter an unapplied percentage, Receivables determines the percentages of each unapplied receipt amount by dividing the unapplied amount by the original receipt amount and then selects unapplied receipt amounts that are a percentage smaller than or equal to the percentage entered and that meet the other selection criteria.
– If you enter both an unapplied amount and unapplied percentage, then each unapplied receipt amount must meet both the amount and percentage criteria. For example in figure 1, if the unapplied amount is set at $10.00 and the unapplied percentage is set at 20%, then following would apply:

Figure 1
Selected Not Selected
$10 receipt / $1.00 unapplied (10%) $10 receipt / $5.00 unapplied (50%)
$10 receipt / $2.00 unapplied (20%) $200 receipt / $15.00 unapplied (7.5%)
$200 receipt / $5.00 unapplied (2.5%)
$200 receipt / $10.00 unapplied (5%)

Specify a receipt date range, if desired.
WARNING: When date criteria is used, the logic of this program is to select only those receipts that have receipt dates within both the receipt date range and receipt general ledger date range specified.

Specify a receipt general ledger date range, if desired.
WARNING: Please exercise caution when setting receipt general ledger date ranges. When date criteria is used, the logic of this program is to select only those receipts that have receipt dates within both the receipt date range and receipt general ledger date range specified.

Specify a payment method, if desired.

Specify an individual customer name, if desired.

Specify an individual customer number, if desired.

Specify an individual receipt number, if desired.
In the Parameters Region, select a Receipt Write-off receivable activity. This field is optional when submitting the report and required when creating the write-offs.
Enter the apply date. This date is used as the apply date of the write-off application records.
Enter the GL Date. This date is used as the GL date of the write-off application records.

Enter comments, if desired. These comments are assigned to each write-off application record and can be viewed from the Applications window.

In the Options region, select one of the following options:

Generate Report Only: produces the Write-off Unapplied Receipt Balances: Pre Write-off Report, which lists the unapplied receipt amounts selected based on your criteria. Use this option to preview the write-off
results before running the option to create write-off amounts in mass.
– Create Write-off: submits the Automatic Receipt Write-off program (ARWRTCON ) that creates the write-off
application records and generates the Write-off Unapplied Receipt Balances: Write-off Report that lists the unapplied receipt amounts selected based on your criteria.
WARNING: Oracle highly recommends that you always use the Generate Report Only option first before submitting the update. There is no supported means for reversing receipt write-offs in mass. You can only reverse write-off receipt amounts by manually unapplying each receipt write-off  from the Applications window.
Choose the Submit button.

Reversing Receipt Write-offs
Like other payment applications, receipt write-off amounts can be reversed at any time and the write-off amount will
be added to the Unapplied total for the receipt. To reverse a receipt write-off, unapply the original write-off application by unchecking the Apply check box on the Applications window for the write-off amount.

To reverse a receipt write-off:
Navigate to the Receipts window (Receipts>Receipts or Receipts>Batches).

Query the existing cash receipt.

Choose the Applications button.

Uncheck the Apply box next to the receipt write-off application line you want to reverse.

Confirm that the write-off amount is added to the Unapplied total for the receipt.
Apply the unapplied amount, if desired.
Save your work.

Viewing Receipt Write-offs
Receipt write-off amounts are displayed with other receipt application lines. You can review the applications for a
receipt by querying the receipt from the Receipts or Receipts Summary options and then selecting the Applications
button. You can also drill down to receipt application information from the Account Details option by querying the receipt number as the Transaction number, then selecting the Activities button.
NOTE: At this time, receipt write-off amounts cannot be viewed from the Receipts form, Application Summary tabbed region. Receipt write-off application lines are omitted from this screen.
The accounting for receipt write-off amounts is included with the accounting for the receipt.

To review receipt write-off information:

Navigation

Receipts – Receipts or Receipts – Receipts Summary.

Query the receipt to view.

If you are in the Receipts window, choose the Applications button. If you are in the Receipts Summary window,choose Open, then choose the Applications button.

View the receipt write-off line(s) and amounts.

If you want to view accounting information for receipt write-offs, close the Applications window to return to the Receipts window.

Choose View Accounting from the Tools Menu. View the detail accounting lines for the receipt in the form of a balanced accounting entry. The receipt write-off amounts display as credits with a line type of ‘Other Receipt Application’ for the account that was defined for the Receipt Write-off receivable activity selected. You should also see that the write-off amount was initially included in the Unapplied line type amounts.

If you want to view the detail accounting as t-accounts, select the T Accounts button.

Accounting for Receipt Write-offs
As a cash receipt is entered, general ledger entries are created for each step in the process. Therefore, to explain the entries for a receipt write-off, you need to first understand the entries for receipts in general.
If a receipt is initially saved as unidentified (a customer is not selected), then the following entries are made:
DR Cash
CR Unidentified
However, most cash receipts are not saved before the customer is identified; therefore the following entries are
typically the initial accounting entries created for a receipt:
DR Cash
CR Unapplied
As you apply the receipt, entries are made to move the money from Unapplied to Applied (Receivable).
For example, if a $100 receipt is entered and applied in full, the following entries are made:
DR Cash 100
CR Unapplied 100
DR Unapplied 100
CR Receivable 100
When a receipt write-off is processed, the money is moved from Unapplied and put to the account defined for the
Receipt Write-off receivable activity selected.
For example, if a $100 receipt is entered and $95 is applied and $5 is written off, then the following entries are made:
DR Cash 100
CR Unapplied 100
DR Unapplied 95
CR Receivable 95
DR Unapplied 5
CR Write-off 5
If you later decide to reverse the write-off, then the following additional entries are made:
DR Write-off 5
CR Unapplied 5

Receipt Write-off Table Information
Receipt write-off amounts are stored in Oracle Receivables like other receipt application rows. Following is a description of each table that is updated when a cash receipt is entered. Only the

AR_PAYMENT_SCHEDULES_ALL
AR_RECEIVABLE_APPLICATIONS_ALL
AR_DISTIRBUTIONS_ALL

AR_CASH_RECEIPTS_ALL: One record is created per cash receipt. Receipt write-off amounts do not impact
the values in this table. However, Oracle Receivables assigns a status to each receipt based on how it is
applied. So it is important to understand how statuses are assigned and how receipt write-offs are
considered in assigning these statuses. Available statuses are: Applied (APP), Unidentified (UNID), Unapplied (UNAPP), and Reversed (REV). If the receipt is reversed (regardless of how it was applied), then the status REV is used. If any portion of the receipt is unapplied (regardless of how the rest of the receipt is applied), then the status UNAPP is used. If a customer has not yet been assigned to the receipt, then UNID is used. And if the receipt is applied in full, that includes applications to debit and credit items, as well as on
account and receipt write-off amounts, then the status APP is used. Other relevant columns for receipts include those described in Figure 2:

Figure 2

Cash_receipt_id Unique identifier of receipt (primary key)
Receipt_number Cash receipt number, not necessarily unique
Amount Amount of the payment
Currency_code Currency code assigned to the receipt
Receipt_date Date of receipt
Type CASH
Confirmed_flag Y or N
Pay_from_customer Identifier of the customer for this receipt

AR_CASH_RECEIPT_HISTORY_ALL: One record is created for each life cycle of a receipt. For example, a
typical receipt (applied or unapplied) will have one row with a status of CLEARED. If a receipt has been
reversed, then it will have two rows with statuses of: CLEARED and REVERSED. Automatic receipts can
have additional rows depending upon the confirmation levels required. So an automatic receipt could have
three rows with statuses of: APPROVED, CONFIRMED, and REMITTED. Other relevant columns for
receipts include these described in Figure 3:
Figure 3
Cash_receipt_history_id Unique identifier of the cash receipt history record
(primary key)
Cash_receipt_id Unique identifier of receipt, although multiple rows
can have the same cash_receipt_id
Amount Receipt amount in currency assigned to the receipt
Acctd_amount Receipt amount in your functional currency
First_posted_record_flag Y – when this is the first row that has been posted
Gl_date The general ledger date used to debit the CASH
account_code_combination_id
Account_code_combination_id Code representing the CASH account that will be
debited (and possibly credited) for the row
Current_record_flag Indicates which row is the current one for the cash
receipt (Y or N)
Reversal_gl_date The general ledger date used to credit the CASH
account_code_combination_id. It also signifies that
this row of the receipt has been reversed.
Posting_control_id Receivables posting batch identifier. –3 designates
10
unposted rows, a positive number designates posted
rows.
Reversal_posting_control_id Receivables posting batch identifier for the reversal
of the row. –3 designates an unposted reversal, a
positive number designates a posted reversal.
– AR_PAYMENT_SCHEDULES_ALL: One record is created per cash receipt to reflect the overall status of the
receipt. Oracle Receivables updates this table each time activity occurs for a receipt. All cash receipts are
identified with a class of PMT. When a receipt is applied or written-off, the amount is updated to the
amount_applied column and reduces the amount_due_remaining. When a receipt is completely applied
(includes write-offs), Oracle Receivables changes the status from open (OP) to closed (CL). Unapplied, on
account, and unidentified amounts are included in the amount_due_remaining and the receipt will not close
until these amounts are applied. All receipt amounts are stored as negative numbers in this table. Additional
AR_PAYMENT_SCHEDULES_ALL records can be created for receipts when debit memo reversals or
chargebacks are created. Other relevant columns for receipts include these described in Figure 4:
Figure 4
Payment_schedule_id Unique identifier for the payment schedule row
(primary key)
Amount_due_original Amount of the payment (negative)
Amount_due_remaining Sum of unapplied, on account, and unidentified
amounts in the receipt currency or the payment
amount minus applied and receipt write-off amounts
(negative)
Acctd_amount_due_remainin
g
Amount_due_remaining in your functional currency
(negative)
Status OP for open, CL for closed. A closed receipt is one
that is fully applied.
Class PMT
Customer_id Identifier of the customer for this receipt
Cash_receipt_id Unique identifier of receipt, although multiple rows
can have the same cash_receipt_id
Gl_date_closed The accounting date on which the schedule was
closed. The default value for open rows is ‘31-DEC-
4712’.
Amount_applied Sum of applied and receipt write-off amounts
(negative)
Trx_number Cash receipt number, not necessarily unique
Trx_date The transaction date of the row
– AR_RECEIVABLE_APPLICATIONS_ALL: One record is created for every type of transaction processed on a receipt. This table is essentially an audit trail of all accounting entries for your cash and credit memo receipt
applications. A row is written in this table for each time you select the Apply or Unapply button – regardless
of whether you manually save the changes – they are always stored here. Each row includes the amount
applied, status, accounting flexfield information, and a posting control id. Possible statuses include applied
(APP), unapplied (UNAPP), on account (ACC), unidentified (UNID), and receipt write-off (ACTIVITY). For
example, if you write-off a $1.00 unapplied amount, two rows will be created: UNAPP for -$1.00 and
ACTIVITY for $1.00.
There are two kinds of applications (CASH and CM – for credit memo applications) stored in this table and
designated by application_type. Credit memo lines applied with a receipt are stored in this table with the
other applications for the receipt. Other relevant columns for receipts include these described in

Receivable_application_id Unique identifier of the receivable application row
(primary key)
Amount_applied Total amount of the line in the receipt’s currency.
This includes line amounts, tax, freight, and finance
charges. Write-off amounts are included here as
well.
Acctd_amount_applied_from Amount_applied in your functional currency
Status APP, UNAPP, ACC, UNID, and ACTIVITY (receipt
write-offs)
Gl_date Date this application row will post to the general
ledger
Code_combination_id General ledger account number code combination id
Payment_schedule_id Identifies the cash receipt or credit memo being
applied
Cash_receipt_id Unique identifier of receipt, although multiple rows
can have the same cash_receipt_id
Applied_customer_trx_id Identifies the transaction being paid / reversed
Applied_customer_trx_line_id Identifies the line of the transaction being paid /

AR_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL: A record is created in this table for the general ledger distributions information
generated by the different steps in the life cycle of a cash receipt. This includes distributions based on the
rows for the receipt in the AR_CASH_RECEIPT_HISTORY_ALL and
AR_RECEIVABLE_APPLICATIONS_ALL tables. Each row includes the amounts to be debited or credited in
both the receipt and functional currency, general ledger code combination id, source table, and source type.
The source_table indicates which table the row is created from: CRH for
AR_CASH_RECEIPT_HISTORY_ALL and RA for AR_RECEIVABLE_APPLICATIONS_ALL. The
source_type reflects the type of activity, such as CASH (for the initial debit to Cash for the receipt), REC for
applied amounts, UNAPP for unapplied amounts, ACC for on account amounts, and ACTIVITY for receipt
write-off amounts. Other relevant columns for receipts include these described in Figure 6:
