DEFINING BANK TRANSACTION CODES

If you want to load electronic bank statements or use Cash Management's Auto Reconciliation
feature, you must define, for each bank account, the transaction codes that your bank uses to
identify different types of transactions on its statements. You should define a bank transaction
code for each code that you expect to receive from your bank. Payment and Receipt codes may be
defined more than once if they apply
You can enter effective date range fields, Start Date and End Date, so that you can make a bank
transaction code inactive.
Navigation: - Setup-> Banks-> Bank Transaction Codes

32

4iapps.com

4i Apps Solutions
4i Ap ps
Sol u ti ons

To

define a bank transaction code: 1. Navigate to the Bank Transaction Codes window.
2. In the Find Bank window, select the bank, whose codes you are defining. Alternatively, you can
query the bank account number
3. For each transaction code you are defining, select a transaction type from the list of values. The
transaction type determines how Cash Management will match and account for transactions with
that code.
Bank statement lines are coded to identify the transaction type the line represents. Since each
bank might use a different set of transaction codes, you need to map each code a particular bank
uses, to one of the following Cash Management transaction types.
4. You can select from the following list of values, Payment, Receipt, Miscellaneous payment,
Miscellaneous receipt, Stopped, Rejected, NSF (Non-Sufficient Funds), Sweep In, Sweep Out etc.,
5. Enter the code used by your bank.

6. Enter start and end dates to determine when the bank transaction code is considered active.
7. Enter the number of float days that you want Cash Management to add to or subtract from the
statement date to create an anticipated value date for automatic lockbox receipts.
8. Enter a Transaction Source for payment and receipt transactions.
9. Enter the Reconciliation Sequence number.If the same code with bank transaction type
Payment or Receipt is entered more than once with different transaction sources this number is
used by the Auto Reconciliation program to determine the order in which to search the transaction
sources for a matching transaction
Optionally select a value for the Payroll Payment Format field to reconcile statement lines, with the
assigned transaction code, to Payroll EFT payments
11. If the transaction type is Miscellaneous Receipt or Miscellaneous Payment, use the Matching
against field to determine the order of matching and the type of transactions to match.
12. Choose the correction method your bank uses when correcting bank errors: Reversal,
Adjustment, or Both.
This field is only applicable for those Miscellaneous Receipt or Miscellaneous Payment transaction
codes that may be used to match to correction statement lines.
13. Choose whether to create transactions for any miscellaneous payments and miscellaneous
receipts reported on the bank statement when no transaction number is provided.
14. If you selected the Create option in the previous field, specify the Receivables Activity type
and payment method for any miscellaneous transactions (receipts or payments) you create from

II. RECONCILING BANK STATEMENTS AUTOMATICALLY

You can use the Auto Reconciliation program to automatically reconcile any bank statement in
Oracle Cash Management. There are three versions of the program:

Auto Reconciliation: Use this program to reconcile any bank statement that has already
been entered in Cash Management.
Bank Statement Import: Use this program to import an electronic bank statement after
loading the bank statement file into the Bank Statement Open Interface tables.
Bank Statement Import and Auto Reconciliation: Use this program to import and
reconcile a bank statement in the same run.

You can run these programs from the Submit Request window, the Reconcile Bank Statements
window, or the Bank Statement Interface window. You can also import and automatically reconcile
a bank statement from the Bank Statement Loader program, by using the option of Load, Import
and Auto Reconciliation.
After you automatically reconcile a bank statement and correct any reconciliation errors, you can
run the Bank Statement Detail Report or use the View Bank Statements window to review
reconciled and unreconciled statement lines. If lines remained unreconciled, you can:
48

4iapps.com

4i Apps Solutions
4i Ap ps
Sol u ti ons
Update
the bank statement and rerun the Auto Reconciliation program.
Reconcile the statement lines manually
Once you have reviewed your reconciliation results, you can transfer the accounting entries to
your general ledger from Oracle Payables, Oracle Receivables, and Oracle Cash Management. If
you use Oracle General Ledger, you can reconcile you General Ledger cash account balance to
your bank account balance by running the GL Reconciliation Report

Cash leveling or Cash Pooling:

Is a cash management technique aimed at optimizing the
balances of the internal bank accounts held at one or several
banks by consolidating balances.
Is usually performed on a daily basis
Can be done by transaction or by total net end-of-day balances
Allows users to group bank accounts into pooling structures to
manage funds effectively
CREATING CASH POOLS
Notional Cash Pools:
Consist of one concentration account and multiple sub accounts
Are used for cash leveling similar to zero balancing without the
actual funds movement
Physical Cash Pools:
Consist of one or two concentration accounts and multiple subaccounts with funds transfer rules specified. When Organizations want
to monitor individual bank account balances manually and then physically move cash to
or from their accounts based on their preferences, Self-Initiated Physical Cash Pools
structure can be used. We can define the rules in pool definitions, to automatically
determine when bank account transfers should be made and for what amounts.

Are used for cash leveling wherein you can initiate fund
transfers or mirror outsourced cash pools

Bank-Initiated Physical Cash Pools, or Zero Balance Accounts(ZBAs):

Bank-Initiated Physical Cash Pools are used When Organizations want to sweep all end-of-day
balances automatically to or from the main accounts.
This kind of services will leave zero balances at the end of way. That is the reason, BankInitiated Physical Cash Pools are often called as Zero Balance Accounts.
