Apply/Unapply Prepayments Window Reference

Payables provides two ways to apply prepayments to an invoice. You can do either of the following:
i-> Create or query an invoice and apply one or more prepayments to the invoice.
ii-> Create or query the prepayment and apply it to one or more invoices.
Selecting an Invoice and Applying it to a Prepayment
When you select an invoice and choose the Apply/Unapply Prepayment option in the Invoice Actions window, the Apply/Unapply Prepayments window opens. It automatically displays all prepayments that have been applied to the invoice, and all available Prepayment distributions that you can apply to the invoice. Payables displays prepayment item type distributions that meet the following criteria: same supplier, and invoice currency as the invoice. The prepayment's Settlement Date is on or before today's date. The prepayment's date is on or before the date of the invoice. The prepayment is type Temporary with a status of Available.
If you use Automatic Offsets, you can set up Intercompany Accounting in Oracle General Ledger to ensure that the prepayment application is balanced by balancing segment. For more information on applying prepayments when using automatic offsets.
Invoice Amount. Amount of the invoice. All amounts displayed in this window are in the invoice currency.
Invoice Amount Unpaid. Amount of the invoice that is unpaid by payments and prepayments. You can apply remaining prepayments up to this amount.
Apply. Use the Apply check box to select prepayments to apply to the invoice.
Prepayment on Invoice. (check box) Enable this check box if the invoice references a prepayment (the invoice amount has been reduced by the prepayment amount and any associated tax).
Amount To Apply. Enter the amount of the prepayment Item distribution you want to apply. This amount cannot exceed the amount of the Prepayment distribution that is unapplied. The total amount of prepayments you apply cannot exceed the unpaid amount of the invoice.
GL Date. Accounting date of the prepayment application. Payables will default the latest GL Date used on the invoice and prepayment invoice distributions. This value will be the GL Date on the Prepayment distribution that Payables creates.
Number. Invoice number of the prepayment.
Dist. Distribution number of the prepayment Item distribution.
Tax Code. Tax value on the prepayment Item distribution. This value defaults to the tax code on the Prepayment distribution that Payables creates. You cannot update this value in the Distributions window.
Amount Available. Amount of the prepayment that you can apply. This is the original distribution amount minus any existing amounts applied to invoices.
Site. Payables displays the supplier site to which the prepayment was paid.
Print. To print a Prepayment Remittance Notice for the supplier when you apply a prepayment, choose this option. The Prepayment Remittance Notice is a letter notifying the supplier that you have applied a prepayment to an outstanding invoice. Payables prompts you to enter the following information for the letter signature block: Name of Sender, Title of Sender, Phone of Sender.
Description. Payables displays the description of the selected distribution. This value defaults to the new Prepayment distribution, and you can modify the description in the Distributions window.
Account. Account to which the prepayment was charged. This account defaults to the new Prepayment distribution on the invoice, and you cannot modify the account in the Distributions window.
For details on how Payables builds the GL accounts for matched prepayments when the Build Prepayment Accounts When Matching Payables option is enabled.
PO Num/Receipt Num. If the Prepayment distribution was purchase order matched, Payables displays the transaction to which it was matched.

If you enable Automatic Offsets and choose Balancing Segment, you can still select prepayments and apply them to your invoices. However, you can select only one invoice at a time for prepayment application. Payables automatically applies the prepayment amount across prepayment distributions, according to the balancing segments on the invoice distributions. If you have multiple balancing segments, each time you make a prepayment application, Payables applies only those prepayment distributions that share the same balancing segment.
