Using Attachments in Accounts Payable

Requesting your opinion on using "attachments"
Do you use the attachments feature in the Accounts Payable module? We are trying to create a Pro/Con list of using this function and would like to get the input from other Oracle users.
Thanks
Pam

I assume you are talking about invoices as attachments.
We use AP attachments to store scanned copies of invoices.
Depending on your volume, you may want to store them on a different server (with inexpensive / slow disks) and simply put a url as an attachment. This way, you are not tying up the EBS disk-space. It also means that your cloning / backup process does not get slower as you attach more scanned copies.
The other option is 3rd party tool such as open-text. That does a lot more than just storing scans. It automates the data-entry of the invoices too.
Hope this helps,

R12(Payments)--Accounts Payable Trial Balance Report, Need Info.

Hi All,
We are trying to use the report Accounts Payable Trial Balance Report.
This is an XML Report in R12 now and has 4 different RTF Templates.
Can you please explain me how this report can be used in R12 and how does it selects the RTF template( from 4 different templates present) at run time.?
Thanks,

Hi,
In 11i we use to have a parameter to give the report in Summary or Detail
In R12 we have 4 options in templates to have Summary by Account, Summary by Supplier, Detail by Account and Detail by Supplier.
Report will not select the template automatically. The user needs to select the template before submitting the report.
Hope it helps
Regards,
Sridhar

R12 Accounts Payable Manager

Hi,
I am using Oracle R12 Accounts Payable Manager. Currently when a payment is made to our suppliers a remittance file is produced in PDF format. I would still like to have this but at the same time I would really like to be able to set up e-mail remittances to a selection (not all) of our suppliers. Is this possible, and if so how?
Kind Regards

Hi,
I don't know if the source is XML.
You may find this from the SYSADMIN responsibility, please navigate to Concurrent Request > Program > Define.
If your output is PDF then most probably it should be a XML report.
Please refer:
Oracle E-Business Suite System Administrator's Guide - Configuration
On this tab there is a cell with supplier e-mail but this cannot be populated. I would have thought that the option to send remits directly to suppliers
I am not sure, whether you can send third party mails via workflow mailer if the suppliers are not registered as EBS users. As far as I know the solution to your quesiton would be is by using XML bursting.
Please ask your development team to have a look at this. Sysadmin support will be partially required.
Best Regards,

AP Invoice Aging Report by GL Date (using: Accounts Payable Trial Balance)

Hi
Need some suggestions:
I need to develop a custom report in (R12).
Account Payable Trial Balance Report, does have the capability to run as of a particular date but it does not show aging buckets. This custom report is to be developed to meet the requirements from a Payables detail perspective as well as to reconcile.
The report should show the balance due as of the report date selected. If As of Date = 5/31/11, then when the report is run on 6/15/11, it gives the results as it existed on 5/31/11. If we run it again on 8/31/11 for As of Date = 5/31/11, and again on 1/13/12, we get the EXACT SAME results each and every time except for the following fields: Current Status, Date Paid and Payment Reference Number.
The end result should be this report ties to the penny to Oracle GL as of the date selected EXCEPT for any JEs posted to the account.
Thanks
Pravin

Hi Pravin,
For all transactions in Oracle, you will have GL dates (Accounting Dates) associated to it. If you use this date in your query to filter data, then you will get correct aging data as on a given date.
To tally with GL, you also must check if the selected transaction has been accounted?

Accounts payable using ADI

Hi everyone,
i recently read that it is possible to create accounts payable from ADI.
i knew that it was possible for creating assets, journal entries and budgets.
i think if this really works this would alleviate the burden of entering invoices
directly to oracle AP since the same invoices may be already available in the form of a spreadsheet.
this will mean time savings and the lesser the probability to make errors to the wrong supplier with the wrong amounts.
could someone tell me how to make the above a reality as tried but found nothing.
thanks

No. ADI is available for GL and FA. You can use a tool called SQLXL to connect from excel spreadsheet to "Oracle AP Open Interface Tables" and run payables open interface program to create invoices. If you are an expert in excel macros, this is feasible.

Pl check your 'Report Defintion' once to ensure that liability accounts that you are using in manual entries are included in report definition.

Accounts Payable and PO Accrual Reconciliation Summary Report?

Dear all,
We are using R12.1.3 and doing the reconciliation AP Vs PO Accrual. However, I run the report "Accounts Payable and PO Accrual Reconciliation Summary Report" and found that one record is strange, like the PO Accrual balance is something -10,000 and the Account Payable balanced is 0.00.
What does it mean for my case? Please advice.
Thanks in advance.

Dear all,
I rerun " Accrual Reconciliation Load Run" program with data range. After that I re-run "Accounts Payable and PO Accrual Reconciliation Summary Report" and found that everything is fine now.
I just wondering am I need to run "Accrual Reconciliation Load Run" every month end closing or just run once for up-grade POs?
Please advice.
Thanks.

When I send an email the Iphone 5 IOS 8.1.3 takes an account I dont want to use, How can I use a default account for all the message I send, includes pics?

Although I select hotmail as my default account (it´s my personal) Iphone always takes my corporative account to send my emails when I attach a pic, video, or any attachments. I want the Iphone always use my personal account (hotmail) to send all the attachments.

Settings->Mail, Contacts,Calendars->Mail->Default Account should be set to the one you want to use.
You can also, when attaching Pics, Tap on the CC/Bcc From Line and then on From to choose an account to send the pictures from.

What is the result of using the "post tax payable" option in the advance ta

what is the result of using the "post tax payable" option in the advance tax report - program rfumsv00? I know it will then post the input and output tax to the tax payable GL account. But from point of view of reporting, when you run the advance tax report, will there be any change after doing this posting to tax payable account?

Basic communication aside, J2EE is mostly a synchronous run-time environment. When asynchrony is introduced, a whole new set of infrastructure requirements is needed to support QoS and commercial-quality implementations. In other words, it's not just about API anymore, it's about reliable communication, exception handling, time outs, etc. You may want to look at this Q&A to see some of the benefits provided by J2EE as underlying run-time for orchestration:

Accounts payable workbench

Dear Experts,
Please can any body explain about SAP Accounts Payable Workbench and when it is used...Please share any material for this....
Regards
Santosh

The SAP accounts payable workbench allows you to manage your electronic invoicing (e-invoice) processes in one central area.
All electronic documents which don’t match automatically against the Purchase Order, are blocked due to price / quantity differences or that need to be coded will be visible within the user-friendly Workbench. It shows at a glance the status of the document and what actions have been taken or are required to progress through the posting cycle. The journey of any document sent around the business is fully documented and can be reviewed within the AP Workbench, giving visibility throughout the business for the AP department.

I maybe getting confused about your requirement but I interpret it as you need the value for source account FCGB.123456 to be posted to two different target accounts P10000 and F10000 with the F10000 posting being sent to the fodder member in C1. Create a logic account that catches FGCB.123456 and give it a unique name i.e. L_FGCB.123456. Then just map that account to F10000 and fodder.
If its just as case of the source account FGCB.123456 reequiring mapping to a different account than all the other accounts in your LIKE mapping then just map that account explicitly.

G/L account determination - purchasing tab - accounts payable window

Dear users,
Can any one help me by defining what is "assets account" in accounts payable window in purchasing tab of G/L account determination ?
It shows liability control accounts while the account type is mentioned "Asset accounts" I am confused in this.
Thanks and regards,
Farhan Sufi

Farhan
Ignore the verbage. The accounts you need to select on Accounts Payable accounts from the Liability drawer. Please check Control Account on the AP GL account you want to use.

Creating a Vendor and Accounts Payable Invoice

Hello Everyone,
At the moment we are using transaction FK01 or XK01 to create a Vendor on the SAP system. We want the process of "Creating a Vendor" and "Creating Accounts Payable Invoice" to be available on Portal which allows us to automate some part of our business process.
Could anyone suggest me a proper approach for this requirements. I would appreciate your help. It is a bit urg*nt.
Regards,
PG.

I would check in SE37 to see if there is any other BAPIs. Alternatively you could debug the transaction in R/3 to see which function modules it uses. It's possible that there is no BAPI, but there is a non RFC function module for creating a vendor. In that case, you can create a "wrapper" for it, ie your own function module that is rfc enabled and that simpley forwards the call internally to the function module that creates the vendor.
I would also search the ABAP forums to find out if there are any function modules that provide this operation. If you don't find any threads you can try posting a question. It's best to post questions concerning BAPIs and function modules in the ABAP forums (or related forums).
Failing all this or if none of the above fits your requirements, you could create your own BAPI to perform this operation. But 9/10 there is a standard function module to perform most operations. Don't worry if it's not rfc enabled like a BAPI, just create a wrapper around it.
Cheers,
Dion
