Reversing Encumbrances

[praburajkumar]

Hello,
I wanted to know how to relieve the encumbrances created,i checked out the online funds available and it does show a big encumbrance amount,but when i try to query for the encumbrance journal so as to reverse it ,in the invoices windows im not getting any journal

it would be appriciated if u can tell me how to find out the encumbrance journal which has to be reversed.

One more doubt i have is, even if the encumbrance journals are created automatically when a po is approved,can we reverse it manually and if so pls give me the steps.

Thanks in advance.

Raj Oracle Payables relieves encumbrances when you initiate posting of invoices, you can't see encumbrance journals on invoice workbench, Oracle Payables prorates the encumbrance reversal based on the amount of the invoice.

Yes that's correct, because when you submit the Payables Transfer to General Ledger program and choose to submit the Journal Import program automatically, Oracle Payables also creates journal entries to relieve purchase order encumbrances in GL.
