Partners, Customers, and Organizations etc. It is a new framewor de!eloped in Oracle ""i.
#$%PA&TI'() The #$%PA&TI'( table stores basic information about parties that can be shared
with any relationship that the party might establish with another party. Although a record in the
#$%PA&TI'( table represents a uni*ue party, multiple parties can ha!e the same name. The
parties can be one of four types)
Organization for e+ample, Oracle Corporation
Person for e+ample, ,ane -oe

A) &A%C5(TO6'&%T&:%A00, The &A%C5(TO6'&%T&:%A00 table stores in!oice, debit

The &A%C5(T%T&:%0I1'%.0%-I(T%A00 table stores the accounting records for re!enue,
unearned re!enue, and unbilled recei!ables for each in!oice or credit memo line. Oracle
&ecei!ables creates one row for each accounting distribution, and at least one accounting
distribution must e+ist for each in!oice or credit memo line. 'ach row in this table includes the

&. What are the tables In #hich Recei't information is store%?
A)
A&%PA36'1T%(C#'-50'(%A00, The A&%PA36'1T%(C#'-50'(%A00 table stores all
transactions e+cept ad<ustments and miscellaneous cash receipts. Oracle &ecei!ables updates
this table when acti!ity occurs against an in!oice, debit memo, chargebac, credit memo, on4
account credit, or receipt.
Transaction classes determine if a transaction relates to either the &A%C5(TO6'&%T&:%A00
table or the A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT(%A00 table. 5sing the C5(TO6'&%T&:%I- foreign ey
column, the A&%PA36'1T%(C#'-50'(%A00 table <oins to the &A%C5(TO6'&%T&:%A00
table for non4payment transaction entries, such as the creation of credit memos, debit memos,
in!oices, chargebacs, or deposits. 5sing the CA(#%&'C'IPT%I- foreign ey column, the
A&%PA36'1T%(C#'-50'(%A00 table <oins to the A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT(%A00 table for
in!oice4related payment transactions.
A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT(%A00, The A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT(%A00 table stores one record for each
receipt that you enter. Oracle &ecei!ables concurrently creates records in the
A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT%#I(TO&3%A00, A&%PA36'1T%(C#'-50'(%A00, and
A&%&'C'I;A80'%APP0ICATIO1(%A00 tables for in!oice4related receipts. 7or receipts that are
not related to in!oices, such as miscellaneous receipts, &ecei!ables creates records in the
A&%6I(C%CA(#%-I(T&I85TIO1(%A00 table instead of the
A&%&'C'I;A80'%APP0ICATIO1(%A00 table.
A&%&'C'I;A80'%APP0ICATIO1(%A00, The A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT(%A00 table stores one

A&%&'C'I;A80'%APP0ICATIO1(%A00 tables for in!oice4related receipts. 7or receipts that are
not related to in!oices, such as miscellaneous receipts, &ecei!ables creates records in the
A&%6I(C%CA(#%-I(T&I85TIO1(%A00 table instead of the
A&%&'C'I;A80'%APP0ICATIO1(%A00 table. Cash receipts proceed through the confirmation,
remittance, and clearance steps. 'ach step creates rows in the A&%CA(#%&'C'IPT%#I(TO&3

*. What Customi+ation that ,ou have %one for Autolockbo?
-. What is Autolockbo?
A) Auto locbo+ is a ser!ice that commercial bans offer corporate customers to enable them to
out source their account recei!able payment processing. Auto locbo+ can also be used to
transfer recei!ables from pre!ious accounting systems into current recei!ables. It eliminates
manual data entry by automatically processing receipts that are sent directly to bans. It in!ol!es
three steps
Import 27ormats data from ban file and populates the Interface Table),
;alidation2;alidates the data and then Populates data into Interim Tables),
Post ?uic Cash2Applies &eceipts and updates 8alances in 8aseTables).
.. What is Transmission /ormat?
A) Transmission 7ormat specifies how data in the locbo+ ban file should be organized such that
it can be successfully imported into recei!ables interface tables. '+ample, -efault, Con!ert,
Cross Currency, $engen are some of the standard formats pro!ided by oracle.
10. What is Auto Invoice?
A) Autoin!oice is a tool used to import and !alidate transaction data from other financial systems
and create in!oices, debit4memos, credit memos, and on account credits in Oracle recei!ables.
5sing Custom 7eeder programs transaction data is imported into the autoin!oice interface tables.
Autoin!oice interface program then selects data from interface tables and creates transactions in
recei!ables 2Populates recei!able base tables) . Transactions with in!alid information are re<ected
by recei!ables and are stored in &A%I1T'&7AC'%'&&O&(%A00 interface table.

12. What are the 2et u' re3uire% for Custom Conversion, Autolockbo an% Auto Invoice?
A) Autoin!oice program 1eeds AutoAccounting to be defined prior to its e+ecution.
1". What is AutoAccountin4?
A) 8y defining AutoAccounting we specify how the recei!ables should determine the general
ledger accounts for transactions manually entered or imported using Autoin!oice. &ecei!ables
automatically creates default accounts2Accounting 7le+ field !alues) for re!enue, ta+, freight,
financial charge, unbilled recei!able, and unearned re!enue accounts using the AutoAccounting
information.
1&. What are Autocash rules?
A) Autocash rules are used to determine how to apply the receipts to the customers outstanding
debit items. Autocash &ule (ets are used to determine the se*uence of Autocash rules that Post
?uiccash uses to update the customers account balances.
"@. /hat are .rouping &ulesA 25sed by Autoin!oice)
A) .rouping rules specify the attributes that must be identical for lines to appear on the same
transaction. After the grouping rules are defined autoin!oice uses them to group re!enues and
credit transactions into in!oices debit memos, and credit memos.
"B. /hat are 0ine Ordering &ulesA 25sed by Autoin!oice)
A) 0ine ordering rules are used to order transaction lines when grouping the transactions into
in!oices, debit memos and credit memos by autoin!oice program. 7or instance if transactions are
being imported from oracle order management , and an in!oice line ordering rule for sales%order
%line is created then the in!oice lists the lines in the same order of lines in sales order.

credits are created, the P&';IO5(%C5(TO6'&%T&:%I- column is null.
