                                    the spreadsheet template overrides all the
                                    existing rules for the workflow.

3.1 Budgetary Control Spend Authorisation
You can enable Budgetary Control for spend authorization to reserve funds for anticipated employee expenses.

a. The approver can check funds and view the impact of anticipated employee expenses on the budget, during the
approval process.

                                                                              Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   11
3.1 Budgetary Control Spend Authorisation

b. When the approver submits the authorization for approval, budgetary control validation is performed. If budgetary
control validation fails, the authorization is automatically rejected and returned to the employee for further action.

                                                                               Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   12
3.1 Budgetary Control Spend Authorisation

c. When the approver submits the authorization for approval and budgetary control validation passes, the spend
authorization amount is reserved.

If the approver manually rejects the authorization, the amount is not reserved and the authorization is returned to the
employee for further action

                                                                              Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   13
3.1 Budgetary Control Spend Authorisation

d. After incurring the business expense, the employee creates an expense report and associates it with a spend
authorization. The payment of the expense report reclassifies the consumption from anticipated to actual expense.

e. All existing budgetary control and analysis reporting supports anticipated and paid employee expenses.

                                                                         Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   14
3.2 Carry Forward PO Budgetary Control Balances
You can have now greater flexibility and control over the purchase order and budget balances being carried forward from
year to year. There are two new parameters and one relabeled parameter for this program.

                                                                              Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   15

4.1 Bank Statement Reconciliation On Rejected Lines
Use the Bank statement reconciliation of rejected lines feature to manually unreconcile any individual payment or
receipt from the reconciled transactions group based on the rejection information received from banks.

• In the reconciled tab of the manual reconciliation page, identify the reconciled transaction group that you want to
  adjust. Select the individual line you want to unreconcile from the group, and use the new action 'Unreconcile
  Transaction' from the Actions menu.

• The reconciliation group will be balanced by creating an external transaction of the same amount, with the origin
  ‘Reversal Reconciliation’.

• The external cash transaction will be created in the reconciled status with the accounting option unselected.

                                                                                Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   17
4.2 Manual Reconciliation Enhancements
The Manual Reconciliation page has been enhanced to improve user experience. You can now add additional columns,
including the Transaction Number, to the system transactions table results.

                                                                           Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   18

5.1 Spend Authorisation with Budgetary Control
You can now reserve funds when you submit a spend authorization for anticipated expenses. When you submit a spend
authorization, the application automatically checks whether sufficient funds are available and rejects the spend
authorization if there are insufficient funds.

The application sends a spend authorization approval request to the approver when there are sufficient funds. You and
the approvers have full visibility into the funds status.

                                                                               Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   20
5.1 Spend Autorisation with Budgetary Control

If there are multiple approvers, the application checks for sufficient funds before sending the approval request to each
approver. Funds are reserved only on final approval and if sufficient funds are available. Rejected spend authorizations
are returned to you for further action.

                                                                                 Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   21
5.1 Spend Autorisation with Budgetary Control

When a spend authorization is approved, it is available for use against actual expenses. You assign an approved
authorization to each expense in your expense report. The application prevents you from submitting the expense report
if the report total exceeds the reserved funds. Approvers can review the authorization associated with the actual
expense when they approve expense reports.

                                                                              Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   22
5.2 Usability Enhancements for Expenses
You can now modify selected expense details right from the work area and the expense report page, which eliminates
the need to drill down to the details, especially for corporate card charges.

                                                                             Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   23
5.2 Usability Enhancements of Expenses

Single Page Expense Entry
You can enter complete details of an expense, including itemization and attendees, in a single page, which provides full
visibility into the expense details at once.

                                                                             Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   24
5.2 Usability Enhancements of Expenses

Enhanced Expense Report Approval Notification Emails
Expenses lets you choose from two types of predefined expense report approval notification emails, such as email
approval notification with fixed layout and configurable notifications.

                                                                           Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   25

6.1 Multiple Segment Tracking for Revaluation Gain/Losses
You can now track revaluation gain or loss using multiple segments in your chart of accounts:

• Optionally track revaluation gain or loss for up to 5 distinct segments in your chart of accounts structure, including
  your balancing segments (Balancing, Natural Account and Intercompany segments should not be qualified as a
  revaluation gain/loss tracking segment)

• If you have 1 balancing segment in your chart of accounts, you can qualify 4 additional segments that are not the
  Natural Account or Intercompany segment, as a revaluation gain or loss tracking segment. If you have 2 balancing
  segments, then 3 additional segments can be qualified as tracking segments, or if you have 3 balancing segments,
  then 2 additional segments can be qualified.

                                                                                 Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   27
6.2 Performance Enhancements in Dashboard and Journals
 Work Area
To ensure the dashboard and work area render faster, the following changes have been made:

• Transaction counts are no longer displayed in the Journals section.

• Approval-related Approve and Reject buttons will always display in the Journals section, regardless of whether the
  user is the approver. If the user cannot approve or reject the transaction, an appropriate message will be displayed.

                                                                                Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   28
6.3 Reversal Journal Batch
 You can now provide batch level reversal information to reverse all reversible journals within a batch.

 • You can now optionally provide batch level reversal information and have this applied automatically to all unreversed
   journals within the batch.
 • If you do not provide this, only those journals in the batch that already have reversal information at the journal level
   will be reversed.
 • In the Manage Journals page, you can select multiple journal batches for the Reverse Batch action to process all
   unreversed journals of the selected batches that already have reversal information.

6.4 Single Request Submission
 For journal batch reversal processing, separate reversal requests were previously launched for each journal in the
 batch that was submitted for reversal. This has now been streamlined with only a single reversal request being
 launched for the whole batch. Individual reversal batches will continue to be generated for each journal in the
 batch that is reversed.

                                                                                Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   29

7.1 Change First Open Period

You can now change the first Payables period if it was originally set after the first General Ledger period.

                                                                                Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   31
7.2 Payables Workflow Transactions Listing
Use the Payables Workflow Transaction Listing Report to view transactions that are pending and rejected in the Invoice
Account Coding workflow. Pending transaction report allows users to view the list of invoices that are pending with the
users for entering accounting information. The rejected transactions report allows users to view list of invoices that are
rejected by the users and reason for rejection.

                                                                                  Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   32
7.3 Supplier Portal Invoice Enhancements
The Supplier Portal Invoicing Enhancement Phase Two brings in a new set of features

Enhanced Supplier Portal UI
The UI has been enhanced for better usability by re-arranging the fields that allow for quicker data entry.

                                                                                  Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   33
7.3 Supplier Portal Invoice Enhancements

New tax driver on invoice lines

Suppliers can now apply different taxes for every invoice line by providing a Tax Classification Code. The tax driver can be
provided for all invoice line types (Item, Freight and Miscellaneous).

                                                                              Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   34
7.3 Supplier Portal Invoice Enhancements

Edit Rejected Invoices
Supplier users can now edit and resubmit invoices that are rejected from the approval users during the invoice request
approval process. After making necessary changes, the supplier can resubmit the modified invoice. Users can recognize
the invoices with Invoice Type as "Standard Invoice Request" and the status as "Rejected".

Approval Actions for Payable users: When the approval for the Standard Invoice Request is in progress, the Payables
users can now perform actions similar to what they can do during the standard invoice approval process: Withdraw,
Resubmit and Force Approve.

Cancel Standard Invoice Request: Payables users can now cancel supplier portal invoices when the invoice request
approval is in progress

                                                                           Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   35

8.1 Manage Setting Settlements in a Spreadsheet

Use the Manage Netting Settlements in a Spreadsheet feature to process settlements that are in progress.

Settlements that are in Selected or Selected, no transactions status can be downloaded to a spreadsheet and processed
as follows:

• Selected: You can review, delete, or mark them to be settled.
• Selected, no transactions: You can delete them from the spreadsheet.

The spreadsheet lets you delete or settle a netting settlement. After all changes are complete, you can save and submit
the settlements for processing.

                                                                             Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   37

9.1 Manage Customer Data Import

You can now manage the import of customer data into Receivables using the Manage Data Import task.

The Manage Data Import task is available from the Receivables Billing work area.

NOTE: The Data Import task previously available in the application navigator under Customer Data Management is now
obsolete. If a user has saved the previous navigation to the Data Import Task in Favorites and Recent Items, then these
need to be redefined to the new navigation.

                                                                            Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   39

Some public sector and non-profit organizations manage their operations through multiple funding sources. Such
organizations may choose to monitor and track the receipts and usage against each fund through one or more balancing
segment values on the general ledger account code.

The Multifund Accounting feature within Receivables supports the creation of detailed distributions using the Balancing
Method (i.e. as per the Balancing Segment Values) wherever the transactions are accounted as consolidated entries.

                                                                             Copyright © 2019, Oracle et/ou ses sociétés affiliées. Tous droits réservés.   40
