Launch the Transaction Manager through Interface Manager or explicitly call the API – INV_TXN_MANAGER_PUB.PROCESS_TRANSACTIONS () to launch a dedicated transaction worker to process them.

The Transaction Manager picks up the rows to process based on the LOCK_FLAG, TRANSACTION_MODE, and PROCESS_FLAG. Only records with TRANSACTION_MODE of 3, LOCK_FLAG of ’2′, and PROCESS_FLAG of ’1′ will be picked up by the Transaction Manager and assigned to a Transaction Worker. If a record fails to process completely, then PROCESS_FLAG will be set to ’3′ and ERROR_CODE and ERROR_EXPLANATION will be populated with the cause for the error.

Lockbox interface

AutoLockbox lets us automatically process receipts that are sent directly to the bank instead of manually feeding them in Oracle Receivables.

AutoLockbox is a three step process:

1. Import: During this step, Lockbox reads and formats the data from your bank file

into interface table AR_PAYMENTS_INTERFACE_ALL using a SQL *Loader

script.

2. Validation: The validation program checks data in this interface table for

compatibility with Receivables. Once validated, the data is transferred into

QuickCash tables (AR_INTERIM_CASH_RECEIPTS_ALL and

AR_INTERIM_CASH_RCPT_LINES_ALL).

3. Post QuickCash: This step applies the receipts and updates your customer’s

balances.

’31-JUN-2006′

2) Quantity = 500, price = 11, effective date from ’01-JUL-2006′ to

’01-JAN-2007′

To create the above the BPA, you would create ONE record in PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE and THREE records in PO_LINES_INTERFACE

LINE1: It will have only the line information. LINE NUM would be 1.

LINE2: For the first Price Break details, LINE NUM will be the same as above i.e. 1. SHIPMENT_NUM would be 1 and SHIPMENT_TYPE would be ‘PRICE BREAK’

LINE3: For the second Price Break details, LINE NUM will be the same as above i.e. 1. SHIPMENT_NUM would be 2 and SHIPMENT_TYPE would be ‘PRICE BREAK’

All the line-level records above must have the same INTERFACE_HEADER_ID.
