Third Party Payee for a Payment Request

Content

I'm working with a customer that has a requirement to pay cash advances for India employees through a third party, pre-paid card provider. Employee are submitting cash advances from Oracle Expenses and they are coming into Oracle AP for reimbursement. Rather than pay the employee for the cash advance, we need to pay this third party, pre-paid card provider who then issues this pre-paid card to the employee to use during their travel.

I cannot see a way to actually associate a third party payee to a payment request, either at the invoice or payment level. And, since the payment request process doesn't use a supplier, there is no way to create a third party relationship to pay the payee on behalf of the employee.
