AP invoice interface

Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1999 01:41:34 PDT
From: Krishna Bangalore vkkrish@hotmail.com
Subject: reg : AP invoice interface, Urgent help needed

Hi everybody,

We are working Oracle Applications 11.0.2,Windows NT 4.0 and service pack 3.

We executed our custome built interface to load AP INTERFACE tables. ). We have put in 9 Invoices into the AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE table. Then we tried running the PAYABLES OPEN INTERFACE IMPORT(APXIIMPT), for the first run it produced a DR.WATSON ERROR ON R25RUN32.EXE ACCESS VIOLATION ERROR.

We noticed that after the Dr. watson error, even though PAYABLES OPEN INTERFACE IMPORT(APXIIMPT) is completed normal, the locks are not released(Ref 1.0). Any subsequent run of PAYABLES OPEN INTERFACE IMPORT(APXIIMPT) gives the following message in the log file and output file respectively(Ref 2.0). Our assumption is that, Since the Dr. Watson error is caused on the R25RUN32.EXE, the report(APXIIMPT.rdf) is not executed to completion,terminated abnormally the invoices are not getting created and also the locks are not released.

We saw the locks placed on the following tables, when the PAYABLES OPEN INVOICE IMPORT(APXIIMPT).

SID----Username---Type--Mode------Wait--Details
---- ------------ ---- ---------- ---- -------------------------------------
13-- APPS----DML--Row-S----No---APPLSYS.FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS
19-- APPS----DML--Row-X----No---APPLSYS.FND_CONC_REQ_STAT

24-- APPS----DML--Row-S----No---AP.AP_INVOICE_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL
25-- APPS----DML--Row-X----No---APPS.OLAM_22002

Logfile

MSG MSG-00999: ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
MSG MSG-00999: (Import_invoice:Exception) The invoices to be selected by this process are locked

Outputfile

(2.0)
v Questions

Why is the Dr. Watson error caused on the R25RUN.EXE() , only when we run PAYABLES OPEN INTERFACE IMPORT(APXIIMPT).

This is causing a major problem. Can any of you help us on this issue.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

ZERO CHECKS

Date: Wed, 16 Jun 1999 11:01:22 -0400
From: Melanie Jubinville Melanie.Jubinville@future.ca
Subject: AP*** ZERO CHECKS

Hi,

We are currently running on 10.7 Character. In the Bank Account setup, we have the ALLOW ZERO CHECK to Yes. When we do a checkrun and if for a particular vendor, we have more credits than invoices, the system changes the amount of the credits to equal to amount of the invoices so it can cut a zero check.

Does anybody know why it does that ??? Now, we have a problem because when we ran the AP Transfer to the GL, we do not balance by 4620.68. My GL is higher by this amount, it looks like it does take in consideration that I still have an outstanding credit of 4620.68. When I query this credit, it shows as Partially Paid.

Any idea ???
Thank you

Problem with quick payments

Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 09:13:09 +0200
From: Warwick Gill WarwickG@langeberg.co.za
Subject: AP: Problem with quick payments

Hi

We are having a problem creating quick payments using a customised EFT payment format. The problem is that sometimes the quick payment works without a hitch and at other times it errors out with the following message: "APP-10056: Payables is unable to submit your concurrent request. Contact the system administrator." I have tried changing the way in which the payment format is set up within Oracle and this sometimes has the effect of correcting the problem for one or two payment batches but then it recurs.

I have used this customised payment format at more than one site and it causes problems at all of them some of the time. As an example of how totally unpredictable the quick payments are: At the current site, we have eight bank accounts requiring an EFT payment format. The formats for each account are identical except for the bank account they reference. They have been set up identically within Oracle and some work for quick payments while others don't.

If you have experienced problems like this or have any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanking you in advance.

Autoselect on Payment Batches

Date: Fri, 18 Jun 99 15:55:07 -0700
From: oracleapps oracleapps@leco.com
Subject: AP Autoselect on Payment Batches

Hello all, 10.7NCA, Prod16.1

We have entered, distributed and approved an Invoice batch (ABC6-18-99).

Then we created a payment batch (XYZ6-18-99) with a pay through of 03-JUL-99, all pay groups and 1-99 priorities, computer generated form feed checks (reserves ok)...

When we run the Select and Build (Standard Oracle Build Process) processes under the actions function our Autoselect job completes normal but reports the following meesages "No payment batch exists with the name (XYZ6-18-99)".

It does not select any of our invoice batches.

Any direction as to what settings we may have wrong? Our is this a known Oracle problem.

All the terms are Net 30, and the supplier settings look correct.

Thanks in advance.

Correction in approved and posted inv. batch

Date: Mon, 21 Jun 1999 13:07:55 -0600
From: Beth.Gonzalez@Level3.com
Subject: AP: Invoice Batch

Last month we had several accounts payable invoice batches that were input, approved, paid, and transferred to gl with the incorrect liability account. Our analyst over-wrote the liability account at the batch level.

We would like to correct the account in AP to insure that the subsidiary ledger and the general ledger remain in balance. (Our last resort is a GL entry.) Does anyone know if this can be corrected through AP? If so, how?

Thank you,

Check printing

Date: Thu, 24 Jun 1999 16:05:56 -0500
From: Oracle Help OracleHelp@infousa.com
Subject: help

I am new to this forum and need some help. I have created a batch of recurring payments. Everything is fine till we go to print the checks. In the invoice section of the check it is pulling the template definition name followed by a dash and attaching the system name from the special calendar, it looks like this kell1-JUN-99 For some reason the checkguard system that we use (Bottom Line) does not recognize this and the checks will not print (for the recurring only). Is there a was in Oracle to change the dashes to underscores? We are running on 11.0.1

Any help is appreciated

Global Attribute Cols Validation on Inv. Import

Date: Fri, 25 Jun 1999 09:26:46 -0400
From: "Devulapally, Sridhar, CFCTR" sdevul0458@att.com
Subject: GLOBAL ATTRIBUTE COLUMNS VALIDATION on Invoice Import

Hi

Can someone help me with this. The new patch set Q for Payables Open Interface Import (APXIIMPT.rdf) has Validations on the global_attribute categories for both the AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE and AP_INVOICE_LINES_INTERFACE.

My client has to use some global_attribute categories for carrying additional data. However with the new package JG_GLOBE_FLEX_VAL.CHECK_ATTR_VAL the import program is failing.

If anybody has any suggestions on how to make this work, without commenting out the validation code, which I already did and am overlooking the code and that works fine. However I need any quick FIXES for the global_attribute columns.

Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.

From: Leanne Andre CMCILMA@NJTRANSIT.STATE.NJ.US

Hello everyone:

Is anyone using the standard "Tax Authority Remittance Advice" in Oracle for withholding taxes?

We are on 10.7 NCA. I have set up a new payment format with the "Tax Authority Remittance Advice" selected in the "Separate Remittance Advice" field. I am able to format the payments properly, but the Withholding Tax Authority Remittance Advice process ends in error. The log file contains the following error messages:

Invoice Audit Listing by Voucher Number Report

Subject: Re - AP Invoice Audit Listing by Voucher Number Report

Hi All,

We are working on 10.7 SC16.1 . I have the following query regarding AP Standard Reports;

I have enabled document sequences for the Payables Module. The system is generating the voucher number when I enter the invoices/payments using the sequences defined and assigned to various categories.

I want to generate the Standard report - Invoice Audit Listing by Voucher Number. One of the required parameter for this report is the Sequence Name, to be selected from List of Values. However, when I press the LOV, the system prompts as ' NO ENTRIES FOUND FOR LIST OF VALUES'.

I checked the Sequence definition form and no field exists for enabling audit, etc. Am I missing any set up anywhere.

System crash during batch pmnt confirmation

Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 14:57:04 +0200
From: Warwick Gill WarwickG@langeberg.co.za
Subject: URGENT: System crash during payment batch confirmation

Hi all

We are having a problem confirming two payment batches at the moment. It appears that what has happened is that they were being confirmed at the time that the server went down. As a result, the payment status has been set to confirming. There seems to be no record of the request for the batch confirmation and we cannot cancel the batch. This means that the payables documents that were being used for the payments are being held by the batches and cannot be re-used. We need to get these payments off as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance Warwick

Subject: AP: Journal with GL details report

Hi

We are on 10.7 NCA

We have run a report in Payables called "Journal with GL details" report for a particular vendor. (in GL transaction date sequence)

I note that the report includes Journal totals after groups of entries to a particular General Ledger account which sometimes do not tie into the total of the transactions preceding the Journal totals.

Has anyone had such an experience with this report?

Report - true outstanding of issued checks

Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 14:34:14 -0400
From: Ann_Whiting@ncci.com
Subject: Accounts Payable R10.7SC

When we reconcile the Bank statement to the general ledger for our Operating Account we run a payment exception report which lists all the outstanding checks issued. This report seems to be a point in time report and can not be reran for prior months. The report changes every time you void a check that is in a prior period. Is there another report that can be run to provide a true outstanding of issued checks for a particular time period? We are on R10.7 SC.
