Last updated on FEBRUARY 04, 2025
Applies to:
Oracle Payables - Version 12.0.0 to 12.2.12 [Release 12.0 to 12.2] Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
The accounting for payments with discount is incorrect.
Steps to reproduce:
Log into Oracle applications using a Payables responsibility.
Open the Invoice Workbench (N) Invoices > Entry > Invoice
Create an Invoice, for example, an amount of $1000, with a discount amount of $30
Pay the invoice (per the example, paid amount should be $970 with the discount)
Account the Invoice and Payment (Create Accounting Process)
The proration is incorrectly show as CASH = $940 (970-30), when it should be $970
As a result, the liability is debited by the 940 instead of 970
In addition, if draft accounting is run (instead of Final Accounting), the Accounting does not complete properly (the posted_flag remains 'N' in the payment history table)
