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.
