Oracle EBS :Payables :Payment Process Request Template

What is a Payment Process Request (PPR) Template?

"Oracle Payables uses templates created [by users] in the Templates tab of the Payments Manager [module] to simplify pay run [PPR] processing. A payment process request template [allows you to predefine]

·         invoice selection criteria, payment attributes,

·          Processing instructions, and

·          specifies how validation failures should be handled [in other words, predefine a PPR header].

Payment process request templates enable you to:

·         minimize data entry by saving you from re-keying frequently used values, which simplifies and expedites manually-entered pay runs.

·         retrieve cash requirements for the invoices that will be selected for payment by running the Schedule Cash Requirements Report.

·         schedule payment process requests to run on a repeating basis.

·         submit specific payment process requests by specifying a template that is used as a parameter and which contains all the information needed for submitting the particular payment process request.

·         use a template as a starting point for submitting pay runs."
