Business Issues
Specify naming conventions such as capitalization and abbreviations Define how to use classifications to group customers for pricing functionality like using qualifiers and for reporting purposes. Classifications include: Customer Class, Customer Type, Sales Channel, Category, and SIC Decide how to set up decentralized parties with multiple sites: as one party with multiple sites, or as multiple customers each with one site
4/12/12
Relationships exist between two customers and can be reciprocal or nonreciprocal. They allow the following:
Payment of related invoices Sharing of pricing entitlements (Agreements and Commitments) Consolidation of business addresses (Selection of a related customers ship-to address during order entry)
Relationships are not transitive: If customer A is related to B and B is related to C, A and C are not related. You must build the A to C relationship separately Under System Options you can select the check box Allow Payment of Unrelated Transactions if you want to permit application of funds from one party to another unrelated party.

Dunning Letters
Receivables lets you create dunning letters using two different methods. You can use one of the ten dunning letters that Receivables provides, or create your own, custom dunning letters in the Dunning Letters window. The ten dunning letters that Receivables provides include text files that you can customize to suit your dunning needs. Each of these letters (entitled USER1 10) includes two flat files: one for the body of your dunning letter text and the other for footer information. These files reside in the Receivables $AR_TOP/reports directory. For example, the dunning letter USER1 has a body file of ardl1b.txt and a footer file of ardl1f.txt. The b and the f identify these files as body and footer files, respectively. You can also use the Dunning Letters window to create the body and footer text of your own, custom dunning letters. You can create as many dunning letters as you need using this window. The Invoices section lists the currency, interest rate, and all of the invoices in this currency that are past due for a customer or site.

Eliminate incorrect data and duplicate information Consolidate site data Reflect customer account changes due to business consolidation Before merging consider archiving the historical data for the absorbed party, customer account, or account site. Also, consider that the information is being used by the entire e-Business suite and will affect other applications Because historical reporting will no longer be available for the merged data, you should carefully consider any merging

Once the model transaction is copied, changes to the model transaction do not affect the copied transaction. The model transaction should be the open or closed transaction that exactly matches the transaction(s) to recur Example

Standard Memo lines are defined to enter predefined lines for debit memos, onaccount credits, and invoices. When you define standard memo lines, you can specify whether a line is for charges, freight, line, or tax. Receivables also let you define one charge back and one debit memo reversal line. You can assign memo lines to debit memos, onaccount credits, debit memo reversals, charge backs, commitments, and invoices. Receivables displays your standard memo lines as list of values choices during credit memo entry in the Credit Transactions window and during invoice entry in the Lines window. When you create charge backs and debit memo reversals, you can either use the standard line that Receivables provides or enter your own. You can create an unlimited number of standard memo lines.

Reconcile Transactions
Formula
Total of Postable Items in Transaction Register = Sales Journal by GL Account Report for the Receivable Account Type
(Total DR Total CR)
Incase of any discrepancies, view your customer balances using the Sales Journal by Customer report to find which total does not balance You must adjust the Transaction Register total for any credits because they are negative on the Transaction Register and positive on the Sales Journal
4/12/12
Reconcile Receipts
Formula
Total of All Receipts in Receipts Register = Total of Receipt Journal Report
4/12/12
Total debits and credits transferred from AR to GL shown by the GL interface execution report should match with your Sales and Receipts Journals totals subject to Unposted Items Report Once transaction and receipts have been transferred to GL, they are considered posted with the AR. Account totals in the Sales Journal by GL Account and Receipts Journal report should match with the corresponding account balances in the Journal Entries report Journal Entries report can generate multiple reports. The Detail by Account version is probably the most useful for reconciliation purposes
4/12/12
Journal Import lets you create detail or summary entries in GL. Choose Detail option to see the transaction detail in your GL Grand Totals of the Unposted Journals report should match the Journal Import Execution report
Once you have posted your journal entries, grand totals of the Posted Journals report or Posting Execution report should match the totals on the Journal Execution report

Aging Bucket
Aging buckets are time periods you can use to review and report on your open receivables.
For example, the 4Bucket Aging bucket that Receivables provides consists of four periods: 999 to 0 days past due, 1 to 30 days past due, 3161 days past due, and 6191 days past due. When you create your Collections reports or view your customer accounts, you can specify an aging bucket and as of date, and Receivables will group the transactions and their amounts in the appropriate days past due period You can define an unlimited number of aging buckets and lines (time periods) within an aging bucket. However, all receivables aging reports include a maximum of the first seven time periods for an aging bucket. If you want to report on additional time periods, you must create custom aging reports. You can also customize the aging buckets that Receivables provides.
4/12/12
buckets that you define here appear as list of values choices in the Aging, Print Statements, and the Print Collection Reports windows. You can make an aging bucket inactive by changing its status to Inactive and then saving your work.
Note:
If you have Multi Lingual Support (MLS), you can define aging buckets in each of your installed languages. To enter translations, select Translations from the View menu or click on the globe icon.
