Setup an Invoice Batch

Advantages of Invoices Batches

1. Enter invoice defaults at the batch level that override system or supplier site defaults for all invoices in the batch.

2. Maximize accuracy by tracking variances between the control invoice count and total and the actual invoice count and total resulting from your invoice entry.

3. Easily locate a batch online and review the name of the person who created the batch and the date it was created.

Responsibility: Payables, Vision Operations (USA)
Navigation: Invoices > Entry > Invoice Batches


APP-SQLAP-10199: You cannot navigate to the Invoice Batches window because batch control is not enabled for your system.

If you want to enable invoice batch control for your system, then ask your system administrator to enable the profile option AP: Use Invoice Batch Controls in the System Profile Options window.

Profile Option

AP: Use Invoice Batch Controls

YES -> Create the Invoice with batch
NO  -> Create the Invoice without batch.


To enter an Invoice Batch

1. In the Invoice Batches window enter a unique value in the Invoice Batch Name field. This name will appear on your reports and will help you locate the batch online.

2. Enter the number of invoices in the batch in the Control Count field.

Enter the sum of invoice amounts in the batch in the Control Total field. Payables tracks variances between the Control Count and Total and the Actual Count and Total as you enter invoices.

Note: If there is a discrepancy between the invoice amount and batch amount, Payables warns you when you exit a batch but it does not prevent Invoice Validation and payment of the individual invoices within a batch. You can make a correction immediately, or you can adjust the invoice batch later.

3. Enter any Invoice Defaults you want for the invoices. Defaults include: Currency, Type, Document Category, Hold Name, Liability Account, Payment Terms, Pay Group, GL Date, and Hold Reason.

These values you enter for defaults override any system and supplier site defaults for the invoices. For example, if you want the purchase order to provide the default value for Payment Terms on the invoice, then leave the Payment Terms field here blank. When you enter individual invoices you can override any values that default from the batch.

4. Choose the Invoices button and enter the invoices.

Address and Site Creation - Unable to create address and sites because of the following error when trying to create the site in operating unit [Vision Operations]: [ORA-01403: no data found in Package AP_VENDOR_PUB_PKG Procedure Validate_Vendor_Site]. Either resolve this issue and try again or deselect the operating unit with the error and continue. Note: any new address requires at least one site in order to be created.

Cause: Addressee

Dealing with "Addressee"

Addressee field is potentially used to assist with the interface with iStore.A ddressee is used when an order is made by a customer and is shipped somewhere else. It is just like you purchase a book and have it shipped to your friend . Your friend becomes the addressee at the address that the book is sent to. Therefore you can use ADDRESSEE column to store an alternative displayed name which can be used in place of the party name on mailing labels or other external documents.

The usage of this column may vary in different applications within Oracle EBS.

Oacle Shipping

Oracle Shipping will display the column on mailing label for ship to customer when the customer account owning party is a party of party type PERSON.

Oracle OM

Order Management may display the column in a sales order along with the customer name (from party name), ship to org name (from customer site use simplifying the process of creating the on-time ship to address.

Oracle CRM Product

CRM iStore will use the column to display the person name in a personal address book since CRM consider that it is a huge overhead to create a party record for each person in a personal address book.

Technical Reference

TCA table HZ_PARTY_SITES parking the column data in ADDRESSEE field.
