Need ability to flag a grant contract to generate billing only for paid costs
Summary:
A typical scenario for Grants customers is to generate billing invoice only when the cost has been paid. Currently, we handle it by asking the customer to generate a draft invoice and creating a custom report to fetch the supplier and payment details for the cost included as part of draft invoice. If the payment information is missing, user manually removes those transactions from the draft invoice.
This is a very tedious manual process and it will benefit most of the public sector clients if oracle introduced the functionality to bill only what is paid. It could be a check box at Grant contract level and for such contracts when generate invoice is run, it will only consider transactions which are paid as eligible for billing.
