Question { Ramco, 3707 }

What is the Process of Fixed Asset From Inducation to
Disposal & what are the journal entry in GL , AP AND IN
OTHER MODULES

Answer

Here are the steps
1. Create a Purchase Order. Distribution line will have asset clearing account (defined in item master). No Accounting entries
2. Receipt of the Asset: Asset clearing account - Dr and Accrual A/C - Cr
3. Create Invoice and match with PO/Receipt: Accrual A/C - Dr and Liability A/C-Cr
Make sure that Track as asset flag is enabled and accounting entries are created and transferred to GL
4. Run "Mass additions create" program. This program transfers the invoice distributions to fixed assets module
5. Prepare mass additions - Here change the status of the line to POST and then add the details like category, location, asset key, etc.
6. Run post mass additions - This will create assets in asset master.
7. Run depreciation. Accounting entries are created for Asset addition, Depreciation, etc and transferred to GL.
Asset addition
============
Asset Cost - Dr
Asset Clearing - Cr

Depreciation
===========
Depreciation expense - Dr
Accumulated Depreciation - Cr

Question { Genpact, 3837 }

For what kind of necessary information we Interact with
Vendors with regard to AP

Answer

Not clear. Interact with vendors? You mean the deploying company or the suppliers of the implementing company? We don't interact with the suppliers of the implementing company. So I assume you are asking for discussion details with the deploying company.

First we need to understand the whole process of Payables in the current setup and how they want to perform in Oracle Apps to decide the number of Operating Units (How they want to secure the data, how and where(division/place) invoices are received and entered, how and where invoices are paid, etc). Once Org structure is finalized (including intercompany related information), we need to interact with them to collect the setup related data.
This is an ongoing process till UAT is completed successfully.

Question { Wipro, 6492 }

why we create diff calenders for each module

Answer

We don't create different calendars in different modules except special calendars in AP and depreciation and prorate calendar in FA.
In AP, special calendars are created for Payment Terms, Withholding Tax, etc which can be entirely different from accounting calendar.
IN FA, depreciation calendar decides the accounting periods for depreciation, but not necessarily match with GL accounting calendar. Prorate calendar mainly decides when and howmuch to depreciate in the first year and the last year (retirement year). Prorate calendars can be monthly, bimonthly, daily (365 days a year), etc.

Question { 6390 }

Hello sirs,
Can any body could Explain how to raise invoice through
Electronic method and later i want to mak payment through
cheque method. What set up I Need to do for that. I Faced
this question in the interview

Answer

Invoice through electronic method? In Oracle Fusion, there is a feature called Invoice image processing. i.e if we send a scanned copy of a invoice to a particular mail id (mail id will be given by oracle and licencing is separate for this feature), then oracle extracts the relevant information from the file (scanned copy) and creates an invoice. Not sure if this is what you wanted.

Question { HP, 11271 }

We have raised the requisition and PO,
and also raised the Invoice and made the payment but did not
match with PO.
What we need to do with that pending PO ?

Answer

Question is not clear. No impact if PO is not matched if invoice distribution accounts are entered properly (Accrual A/C). So accounting wise, there is no impact.

If the question is that PO has to be matched, then we need to reverse the payment and cancel the invoice and then re-enter another new invoice and match with PO/Receipt.

Question { Logica CMG, 3151 }

how to create a journal source by user9

Answer

Is your question correct? Not a difficult one to create a source. just few fields.

Go to GL responsibility --> Setup --> Journals --> Source and create a source. There are lot of seeded sources. Check before creating a new one. Following fields are important.
1. Import Journal References - For subledger journals, all references are maintained for drilldown purpose
2. Require Journal Approval. - If we need to approve the journal before posting for a source, we need to enable this (We should have enabled approval at the Ledger level too).
3. Freeze Journals - If checked, we can not modify the journals in GL after import from other sources like AP, AR, etc (Freezing is preferred)

Question { 3976 }

What is the value/Amount Oracle takes for COGS Account
(while shipment is done)? What is the value the Oracle taken
when the revenue account is created during AR Invoice creation?

Answer

COGS account is debited and Inventory account is credited during shipping. The amount is taken as qty*item cost from inventory item (not sale order price).
When invoice is created in AR, Receivable account is debited and Revenue account is credited. Here the amount is taken as qty*sale order unit price.
If sale order unit price is higher than item cost plus sales and distribution cost, then the company will enjoy the profit.
