Prepaying in Anticipation of a Purchase

I have posted an item on Craig's LIst. A potential buyer wants to inspect the item, complete the transaction and depart with the item. How can I use PayPal for this transaction? Can the buyer place the purchase price in an escrow type account in anticipation of a possible purchase? If that can be done, how do I know the money will remain in that account and that it will be transferred to my account after the buyer departs?

DO NOT accept paypal for a collect item as there is no seller protection. Cash on collection and inspection of the item is way the best way forward. **************************************** I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.
Marking one of my replies as a solution would be appreciated if I sorted your problem.

Any way in EBS for purchase dept to raise a request for a prepayment

hello
This morning i received a request from accounts department that they would not enter prepayments manually .
Instead it should be like a PO process: the requestfor prepayment should be raised from purchasing department which should be approved and then accounts users can pick it up like they pick up PO`s for invoices
is there any standard way for this process, they say they did it where they worked earlier.
Well i am not aware of any such standard way
Please advice
I am on 12.0.6

http is a website, Firefox browses websites. We are not planning on kicking people to the native app for such things. We do support loading resources that list helper apps. For example if you load a Google Maps page there is an Android icon in the address bar that will take that page info and pass it to the Google Maps app.

Thanks
Bharath

Dear Ivruksha,
In Oracle Payable we have Temporary Prepayment and Permanent Prepayment, Temporary Prepayment can be applied on Purchase Invoice but Permanent we can not apply on Purchase Invoices until unless we change the type from Permanent to Temporary.
In the same way My client is asking how to maintain these type of deposit when they receive from their Customer.
Scenario-01: Our Client receive Advance from his customer and He will adjust that amount on future sales - to support this we have Standard Deposit Transaction in AR
Scenario-02: Our client receives Advance from his Customer and he won't allow that payment to adjust on future sales transaction he wants to maintain that amount as Security Deposit & Use should not be able to adjust this Deposit amount on Sales Transaction as AP Permanent Prepayment.
Please help me how to provide solution to this requirement.

Oracle Receivables Customer Profile deletion

This customers custom program ( Apps 11.5.5) tries to update the Terms in a custom table by looking up Standard Terms ( joining AR_CUSTOMER_PROFILES and RA_CUSTOMERS; the custom table holds Customer Number).
This update fails with an ORA-01427 because for a few customers two Customer Profiles are found. Receivables allows setting up Customer Profiles at Site and Customer level.
So I need to change the update statement. Does someone have an example of a query-statement that first checks a Customer's Customer Profiles at Site-level and then ( if it doesn't exist) at Customer-level.
Cheers,
Hans Lawalata

I use a prepaid cell phone , who elses does?

Im not a big talker on the phone. I do have a landline number, but thats only because I need it for DSL in my area. So I went with a prepaid phone, and I must say I am pleased that I can purchase the talk time I only need when it matters most. Each cell phone comes with hidden fees and other TOS lingo you gotta read before activating your phone but its not as bad as it seems.
*******DISCLAIMER********
I am not an employee of BBY in any shape or form. All information presented in my replies or postings is my own opinion. It is up to you , the end user to determine the ultimate validity of any information presented on these forums.

Personally, I think T-mobile is the leader in prepay at the moment.
Once you hit gold status which takes buying a $100 prepay card any future minute purchase will last 1 year.
Here is why I believe they are the best "Emergency" Phones:
So, first year you buy a $100 prepay card and a $50 phone.
Second year, you buy a $10 card and get a whole year before it expires (and your $100 rolls over if it hasnt been used.)
2 Years of full time cell phone service with over 1200 minutes for $160.
3 years for $170
If you only use the phone for 1 minute calls, it is the best value.
You can easily upgrade to a plan when you hit that point where you use more minutes.
BUT for $40 a month PREPAY you can get 400 minutes if you buy in $100 increments. Thats a deal.

Mac Pro - Config Questions

In anticipation of a newly updated Mac Pro line and in anticipation of me purchasing my first ever Mac Pro, having already had 2 iMacs, I was wanting to get some input from you fine folks here and tell me what is working well and perhaps even some hints on what to get and buy from in regard to RAM, internal hard drives and graphics cards, if there are some other options for graphic cards where I can save some money.

Sorry about leaving out my use of the Mac Pro.
I do plan on using 3rd party hard drives, RAM, etc and from all the reading I have been doing I AM planning on letting Apple install the bluetooth and wireless card for me since everyone points out it is tough to do on your own, etc. I was mainly wanting to know what 3rd party RAM and hard drives were working out for some of you, specify brand names if you would.
I will be using it to record music via Logic Pro 8, play games via Bootcamp and also work on video editing, capturing...so a bit of it all really and pictures of course.
How is the sound card in the Mac Pro by the way? I am finding that I am getting a bit of noise coming out of my analog output when playing the one game I like to play on the Windows side and a bit of crackle out of some tracks recorded on LP8. I am assuming the sound card is a bit better and of better quality than the one in the non-aluminum verison iMac? If it is the same, are you able to install sound cards such as the Creative X-Fi line as you can with PC's? I had an X-Fi Music card for my PC and it was nice sounded better than the onboard motherboard sound that I had on my VAIO.

Prepayment against purchase orders flagged for 4way match

Hi All,
In our organization all the purchase orders are flagged for 4 way match. Some of these orders require partial (some times full) advance payment. The problem is these prepayment documents are automatically put on system hold as the system is trying to do 4 way match against the prepayment document. As there is no PO receipt available at the time of making prepayment, how to handle the situation.
Thanks in advance.
RMA

Have you flagged your vendor as return vendor in purchasing tab (MK02)
You also have to configure return delivery in config (under return PO)
If everything is setup correctly, as soon as you check "Return PO" and press enter "Shipping" tab should appear under line item detail.
Good luck..
Hope this helps-

For some reason iTunes will no longer accept PayPal or a credit card. I have called my credit card company and confirmed that they are not getting any verification request (required for them to decline). I deleted, changed, set to none, logged on, logged off--get the picture?
I am getting the same response if I try from my iPad. I was able in between changing from a credit card to PayPal actually purchase an app on my iPad. But when I went to try it again-bam same problem.
Any suggestions?

Purchase order and Account assignement category- Change

hi.,
We are trying to receive the Purchase order of High value components into INVENTORY.
However, most of these Purchase Orders were created with account assignments.
Because of that, if we receives these POs, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Additionally, some of these have been invoiced already and would need to be backed out from the finance side.
Question: How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Invenotory.
Also, what are the other options ( FI will not open Previous period) so that the PO's which have been invoiced can be reversed against that AC assignment.
Thanks All

hi Rajesh.,
As mentioned earlier, these Purchase orders are STO's which have been already created and we are waiting to do the GR for the same. Items in the STO PO are of High value which we need to bring into INVENTORY.
But, because these STO PO's were created with account assignments, if we do GR now, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Some of these STO PO's have been invoiced already and FI has indicated that they could cancel the invoices for those STO PO's in previous posting period.
Question again : How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Inventory and not to a cost Center (202)
Step (1) Can we cancel the Invoiced items> reverse the GR for invoiced Items>reverse STO for PO ?
Step (2) Can we reverse the STO for PO for which GR has not been done? then
Step (3) Change the PO through ME22N, remove the Account assignment category?
Or how do we correct this situation for
(1) PO's already invoiced.
(2) PO for which GR has not been made. How can we receive them into Stock and not Cost center.

Creative Cloud prepay

I am currently paying monthly for Adobe Creative Cloud. As a student with financial instability, I hate monthly payments, and I was thrilled to see that there is now a prepay option. The only problem is that it is a limited offer. My Creative Cloud Subscription ends in about a month and I want to take the prepay option. I am just worried that the prepay option will be gone when the time for my renewal comes around. Am I able to purchase Creative Cloud with the prepay option now, and then have that membership activate when my current subscription runs out?

Your present CC ends on June 22nd 2014, the offer that you have mentioned is limited time offer(As you have mentioned it)(Membership plans: Pricing and subscriptions | Adobe Creative Cloud)
The best option would be buy the limited time offer now & cancel the present subscription.You can use the present subscription till June 22nd.Then you just need to sign out & sign back in of the CC Desktop app to activate the new yearly CC.

TV Show Items not showing in iTunes Library (or Purchased Playlist)

I recently purchased 4 episodes of the BBC Planet Earth series 1 in HD in four separate transactions.
During the first transaction I was surprised that both the *HD version* and *Standard version* was in download list. Since this was my first purchase of an HD title (I did not want to pay unnecessarily for both versions) because the download was to play on Apple TV. I therefore deleted standard version from the download list.
When I got my "invoice" I reported the two version download as a problem with *Apple iTunes Store*. The response was that both versions are downloaded for the HD price. They pointed out that should I wish to sync a copy to my iPod touch the standard version would be required. They also provided a re-download of the "non HD" version, a new button appeared in the bottom of the iTunes window.
On the next 3 occasions I let the iTunes store download both versions of each episode. However I do not have a copy of the standard versions in my *Purchased Items* or they don't show in my *iTunes Library* either.
In the *+Finder view+* the standard version ( .m4v files) are in the *+TV Shows folder+* together with the HD version.
How can I get these into the *iTunes library* (so I can sync to the ipod) and the purchased items?
I have tried via *+File>Add to Library+* does not work and Apple iTunes Store cannot offer advice!!
Thanks in anticipation of your help

Making RFQ mandatory for creation of purchase order

Hi,
I need to set up the following:
1. For specific purchase order document types, RFQ should be mandatory i.e. it should not be possible to create purchase order before RFQ is created.
2. Purchase orders can be created only if RFQ is approved. How can i set up the release strategy in RFQ?
Thanks in anticipation of your reply.

Hello Sameet,
1. You can use default parameter EVO to make the RFQ manadatory for purchase order. In the parameter you need to flag mark "reference to reference document " indiactor on Fast processing tab and assign this parameter to the user profile.
2. For setting up RFQ approval process, please follow the steps:
You must perform the following steps:
1. Create characteristics and classes
        For more on this topic, see Edit Characteristics and Edit Classes.
Note
If you wish to link your release procedure to workflow, you must perform steps 2 and 3. You make these settings in Customizing for Business Workflow (Basis -> Business Management).
Otherwise, continue with step 4.
2. Define organizational plan
        For more on this topic, see Edit Organizational Plan.
3. Assign standard tasks and activate event-receiver linkage.
        For more on this topic, see Perform Task- Specific Customizing.
4. Set up release procedure for RFQs
    a) Create release group
    b) Create release code
    c) Create release indicator
    d) Create release strategy
Hope this helps

A purchase order needs to be created, and the vendor is known
Business Process Description Overview

Purchase Order creation is possible only if sufficient budget allocation is there for the Fund Centers. It is not possible to create Purchase Orders for a Vendor who is blocked for procurement or not maintained in source list for that item. Also it is not possible to create PO for Quantity more than the PR quantity.
All the price components which are to be paid to vendors and requires to be inventoried has to be included in PO.It is possible to add different vendors for delivery costs. The tax codes should be correctly maintained in PO for the purpose of Cenvat availment etc.
