Overview
Invoice processing in Order Management is
the process by which data from Orders and Returns is interfaced to Oracle
Receivables for the creation of invoices and credit memos to recognize revenue
and manage sales credits.
Within Oracle Order Management, invoice
processing has been implemented as a workflow activity (Invoice Interface). The
Invoice Interface activity collects order, return, and freight charges
information from Order Management tables and transfers this information to
Oracle Receivables Interface tables. Data elements such as item description,
ordered quantity, unit list price, total amount, payment methods, warehouse id,
and sales credit are transferred via Oracle Receivables Interface tables, and
upon completion the Invoice Interface activity, the Oracle Receivables
concurrent program AutoInvoice must be submitted to import the invoice
and credit data into Oracle Receivables.
