Overview of Receivables Adjustments in Oracle Fusion Applications

What are Receivables Adjustments?

An adjustment is a manual or automatic billing update that increases or decreases the balance on a transactions such as an invoice, debit memo, chargeback or a credit memo.

Which types of Adjustments can be processed in Receivables?
  1. Invoice - This means that the adjustment amount will be applied to the entire invoice.
  2. Line - The adjusted amount is prorated across all lines. If the adjustment includes tax, then the amount is prorated across lines and tax.
  3. Charges - the adjusted amount is applied to the charges amount on the invoice. Again, if the adjustment includes tax, the amount is prorated across charges and tax. 
  4. Tax - the adjusted amount is applied to the tax amount
  5. Freight - The adjusted amount will be applied to the freight amount
