Need to Account Discount Amount in a Different GL A/C from Revenue A/C When Importing Orders With Discount (Doc ID 291946.1)

Last updated on APRIL 04, 2025

Applies to:

Oracle Receivables - Version 11.5.9 to 11.5.10.3 [Release 11.5.9 to 11.5.10]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

While giving a Discount through Order Management the Discount Amount gets debited to the Revenue Account as defined in AutoAccounting.
For example a Discount of 10% is given on a Sales Order line of say $100. Now a journal will
be created through the autoinvoicing as follows:-

Dr AR a/c $90
Dr Sales Revenue a/c $10
Cr Sales Revenue a/c $100
The $10 debit entry is for the discount and is "hardcoded" to debit the Revenue a/c and cannot be configured.
