Oracle AP and Purchasing : Debit Memo

 I seen “Debit Memo” is one of the generic word which get confused many a time by developer and functional people as well. here trying to make it simpler.
What is a Debit Memo Invoice?
A: Negative amount invoice which is created and sent to a supplier to notify the Supplier of a credit you are recording.
When should a Debit Memo be created?
A: To correct over billing errors, we create a Debit Memo by doing a Return To Supplier transaction for the extra quantity that got invoiced.
How does Create Debit Memo from RTS Functionality Work?
A: Steps to Create a Debit Memo via RTS:
1. Create a PO with supplier and supplier site.
2. Receive the goods using Enter Receipts Form.
3. Create an Invoice. If Pay on Receipt is used to create then Invoice then set “Pay on” as Receipt and “Invoice Summary Level” as Receipt in Supplier sites window under purchasing tab.
4. Do a Return To Supplier (RTS) transaction for some of the goods using Returns form.
5. Make sure the check Box ‘Create Debit Memo’ is checked in the Return line while doing the RTS transaction.
6. This will automatically create a Debit Memo invoice in AP.
Depending on how the RCV: Processing Mode Profile option, Receiving Transaction Processor will be kicked off as soon as Receipt/Return transaction is saved.
If profile option RCV: Processing Mode = Batch, then user has to go and manually launch Receiving Transaction Processor concurrent request.
If profile option RCV: Processing Mode = Immediate, then Receiving Transaction Processor concurrent request will be launched and runs in the background. In this case control comes back to user and he can do his operations.
If profile option RCV: Processing Mode = Online, then Receiving Transaction Processor concurrent request will be launched. In this case control will not come back to user until processor completes processing.
 What setup is required to create a Debit Memo?
A: Navigate: Supply Base -> Suppliers -> Query on supplier -> Sites -> Query on site -> Purchasing tab -> Check the box for Create Debit Memo from RTS Transaction. Make sure the check Box ‘Create Debit Memo’ is checked in the Return line while doing the RTS Transaction.
Under what Conditions a Debit Memo can be created?
A: Automatic Debit Memo will be created only when billed quantity of Purchase Order is greater than or equal to Returned Quantity. Return To Supplier reduces the PO billed quantity by the returned quantity but in any case PO billed quantity will never go below zero.

Unbilled Receivables and Unearned Revenue Accounting in Oracle Projects

Unbilled Receivables and Unearned Revenue Accounting in Oracle Projects Introduction When it comes to contractual billing, invoice and revenue generation are two separate processes, which during the lifespan of a project may or may not always coincide with each other and so do the balances in revenue and receivables accounts.  This interim difference between revenue and invoice account balances is bridged using Unbilled Receivables (UBR) and Unearned Revenue (UER) Accounts. Unearned Revenue (UER) Unearned Revenue (also termed as deferred revenue or UER) signifies money received for the goods or services, which are yet to be delivered.  As per the principles of Revenue Recognition, UER is recorded as on the balance sheet unless it is converted to Revenue upon delivery of goods or services For Example XYZ Consulting Ltd. receives an annual maintenance contract of $ 12,000 on Dec 31, 2014 for the period of Jan 01, 2015 to Dec 31, 2015.
