Hi,

I will give you brief setup steps:

In Receivables:
Setup > Financials > Books

Define Set of Books:
General Ledger Set of Books. Oracle Receivables will automatically record all transactions in this set of books. the set of books is predefined as follows:

Set of Books --ABC CO. LTD.
Calendar --ABC CO. Calendar
Functional Currency --USD
Accounting Flexfield Structure-- ABC CO. Accounting Flexfield
Future Period Limit 1 OR 2
Period Type Month

Oracle Receivables User Guide 2-49 through 2-56.

Decide how to use the Account Generator

Finance Charges/Exchange Rate Gains/Losses
The Account Generator can update the balancing segment when generating finance charges or posting gains/losses to the general ledger.

Credit Memo Request Approval Process
This is a new feature that is based on Oracle Workflow. Routes a credit memo request for approval using a hierarchy or approval limits defined in AR. If the request is approved, a credit memo is created. Otherwise the process notifies the requestor as to why it was rejected.

Define Transaction Flexfield Structure:

The transaction flexfield uniquely identifies transactions imported from other applications.

Define System Item Flexfield Structure:

have been predefined with a one segment, 15 character Oracle Inventory System Item Flexfield Structure. The ABC structure has been specified to Distribution by setting the OE: Item Flexfield profile option to System Item.

The method for displaying and entering that flexfield in Receivables is also predefined by setting the AR: Item Flexfield Mode profile option to Concatenated Segment Entry.

Define Territory Flexfield:

in order to setup sales personnel in Oracle you will need to define the basic Territory Flexfield and compile it. Please see the AR Territories Setup Document for steps on defining the flexfield segments.

This flexfield must be defined and compiled to prevent errors during the AutoInvoice process between AR and Order Entry.

In Receivables:
Setup > Financials >
Flexfields > Key > Values

Define Value Sets Values for Territory Flexfield Structure:

In Receivables :
Setup > Transactions > Territories
Or

Define Sales Tax Location Flexfield Structure:
NOTE:
If your code combination for tax locations has a segment value description containing the segment separator chosen for the Sales Tax Location flexfield structure, both the Tax Locations and Tax Codes forms crash with no error message. The segment separator may be either a Dash (-), Period (.), Pipe (|) or a Custom character. Be sure not to include the segment separator character in any of the segment value descriptions.

In Receivables:
Setup > Tax > Locations

There are three categories of Quick Codes in Receivables. These are Receivables, Freight Carriers, and Demand Class, setup with sufficient QuickCodes to begin exercising your business processes. However, you may determine that new codes are needed or need to have codes inactivated this can be done at anytime.

Hi

Try to read user guide on AR, then you can ask questions on some of the things you do not understand. User guides are free on oracle web site. You do not need metalink account for this.
