OE/OM to AR to GL Overview

OE/OM to AR to GL Overview
Oracle Order Entry (Order Management in R11i) is the starting point and main
processing module for the revenue stream in Oracle Financials. Sales orders are entered,
booked and shipped within Order Entry. Orders booked in OE represent the first
accessible revenue forecast in Oracle Financials. Booked orders may be considered as
expected or future revenue, though they are not treated as revenue in accounting terms
nor does OE send them directly to the GL for accounting purposes. In fact, they must
pass through several possible stages, like shipment and invoicing, before they are
considered revenue by Oracle Financials and thus available in the GL. Thus, revenue
managers relying solely on the GL for revenue figures will be disappointed by the
absence of “bookings” information and/or the lag time for shipped orders to make their
way into the GL as revenue

About Bank Reconciliation

The diagram in this section provides an overview of the Cash Management process, from entering bank statements to posting accounting entries to your general ledger. There are two major process steps you need to follow when reconciling bank statements: 1.
