One Time Suppliers - How to manage the payments
We have around 200 invoices from one time suppliers which need to be processed and paid. It is not feasible to create so many suppliers as these are just for one time payments and will not be repeated. I am sure many organisations will have the same requirement. What is the best solution to achieve this requirement in Oracle Payables?
We have created a DFF at invoice header to capture the payee details (Name and Address) and a common supplier defined as 'Single Payment Supplier' which will be used for one time payments. While issuing the payments system will read the value from this DFF and print the cheque. The only limitation with this solution is that anyone can go and update the Payee details in DFF even when the invoice is paid. How can we restirct this dff from updates once the invoice is paid?
