How do you control invisible characters in Invoice no. due to pasting into oracle from other format
Payables, EBS currently validates Supplier, Site, Currency with invoice number & validates duplicate invoice. However in large orgs copy pasting invoices from multiple formats adds up junk character before or after with addition 1 to 3 invisible character when seen from front end Transaction workbench and finally gets processed for payment.
Large organisations suffers heavy loss annually due to such duplicate payments, audits, analysing reports etc. To recover duplicate payments company has to take services of recovery team/ Consultants etc.
If oracle is able to alert near by invoices at the time of booking the invoices, this can alert the entry user and save valuable money for the company
