Name of the supplier or payee to whom you want to remit payment.
Supplier Site
Supplier Site of the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier to whom you want to remit payment).
Remit To Supplier Name Remit To Supplier is the supplier to whom the payments for the invoices are released. Remit To Supplier
can be the same as the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) or it can be another Supplier for whom a
relationship has been defined with the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier). Sometimes the ‘Remit To
Supplier’ is also referred to as 3rd party supplier in this document
Remit To Supplier Site Remit To Supplier Site is the supplier site of the Remit To Supplier to whom the payments is released.

Processing Third Party Payments in Payables
Overview
When you are making payments from their Payables system, there might be instructions from the supplier to
make the payment to a different party (3rd
Party). In that case the remittance of the payment has to go to the
3rd
Party. However for all legal purposes including 1099 it is treated as a payment to the original supplier.
The Payables department maintains the Supplier information. Establishing 3rd
Party Payment relationship is
part of the supplier maintenance activity.
You may also have information of the 3rd
party at the time of entering the invoices. You can have the right
to override the 3rd
Party defaulted at the time of invoice entry.
You process the invoices that are due for payment. Generally you are aware of the 3rd
Party suppliers to
whom the payments can be released on behalf of the supplier. The Payments department may have the right
to override the actual party to whom the payment can be made at the time of making payments.
The 3rd Party Payment requirement needs an ability to release payments to a supplier who can be other than
the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier).
When you are making payments from their Payables system, often times you will have to remit the payment
to a 3rd party. The following are some of the instances under which 3rd party payments are made:
• Supplier files for bankruptcy. This supplier has some outstanding invoices (on their accounts
receivable) from certain customers. The court or the collection agency then sends a notification to
all the customers saying that any outstanding payments that are due should be paid to them.
• Supplier is having a cash flow problem. They sell all their receivables to a 3rd party. The 3rd party
then notifies the customers about this change.
Under all these circumstances you will need to update the system with this new information so that
payments can be made to the 3rd party. The system should allow you to make 3rd party payments so that it
can be tracked. From an audit standpoint, it's imperative that you track 3rd party payments.
Since the payment is going to be made to the 3rd party, the system should provide a mechanism to capture
the following information:
● Name of the 3rd party
● Address
● Contacts
● Payment preferences like currency and payment method
● Telephone number
● Email Address
● Bank accounts
Once a payment is made to the 3rd party, you should be able to inquire against those payments. The
payment inquiry should let you know the 3rd party that was paid on any particular invoice. In addition to
this, you should also be able to run reports that let you know the payments that were made to the 3rd party.
Oracle/Client Confidential - For internal use only 5
Any 1099 or withholding should be based on the invoicing supplier and not the 3rd party. The system will
report the amount that was paid to the 3rd party on the 1099 Misc form.
The main purpose of this feature is to allow you to make 3rd
Party Payments. As a part of that overall
purpose this feature will enable you to establish a relationship between the Original Supplier and the 3rd
Party Supplier (which has been termed as a ‘Remit to Supplier’). It will also allow marking a particular
party as a default 3rd
Party for all the payments to be made for a given period. The 3rd
Party is defaulted on
the Invoices based on the setup. You may have the right to override the 3rd
Party that has been defaulted. In
addition the Payments clerk can also have the rights to override the 3rd
Party. When a 3rd
Party has been
selected the remittance of the payment is made to the 3rd
party and not the original supplier
This feature will allow you to do the following in the Oracle Financials application:
• Establish 3rd
party relationships
• Default 3rd
party supplier information while creating invoices and processing payments
• Allow override of 3rd
party supplier information on the invoice and payments screens
• Default Remit To Bank Account for the 3rd
Party supplier on Invoice and Payment screens
• While processing payments to a 3rd
Party Supplier:
o When the Payment Process Type is ‘Printed’ – the address of the 3rd
Party supplier is
utilized
o When the Payment Process Type is ‘Electronic’ – the Bank and Bank Account
information of the 3rd
Party supplier is utilized for transfer of funds

Set Up Steps for Processing Third Party Payments
Supplier Page
In the Supplier page a new tab called ‘Relationship’ is provided. This enables you to define, search and update the relationship
of a supplier with other suppliers. The parties which are included here are the ones to which the payment can be made on
behalf of the Supplier. This screen also enables you to define the default 3rd
party for a given period. You will also be able to
inactivate or end date a relationship. This relationship is defined at the supplier site level. Defining the ‘Relationship’ is
allowed only for Supplier Type – ‘Standard Supplier’.
Define Relationship
In the Supplier page, a new tab called ‘Relationship’ is added below the ‘Payment Details’ tab.
Upon clicking the Relationship region link, the page will display the ‘Relationship’ and
‘Relationship Details’ region. Initially the page will not display any relationship details. Using
this region, you are allowed to carry on the following actions for the selected supplier site:
o Search and View relationships
o Add relationships
o Update relationships at supplier site level
A field named “Relationship Assignment level - Site” is available. The relationships are
defined at Supplier Site level of the current supplier.
Note: The screenshots in this document represent the following business scenario: Supplier / Supplier Site
‘SRAMANUJ’ wants all payments that are due, to be made to third party Supplier / Supplier Site MJKRISHN.

Remit To Supplier Name
• At the Invoice header, the “Remit To Supplier Name” field shows all the active
suppliers, which are defined in the ‘Relationship’ region for the supplier and supplier
site selected on the invoice. The 3rd
party relationship should be active as of the
Invoice Date. Apart from that, the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) will also be
displayed in this LOV. A supplier relationship for the invoice is termed as active if:
o The 3rd
Party is active as a supplier. (It is a pre-requisite that every 3rd
Party needs to be defined as a Supplier).
o The relationship between the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) and
the 3rd
Party Supplier is an ‘active’ relationship for the Supplier Site as
of the Invoice date.

invoice header, namely - Trading partner Name, Supplier Number, Taxpayer Id, Tax
Type & Registry Id.
• As soon as you select the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier), Supplier Site and
enter the Invoice Date in the invoice header and tab out, the values in the Remit To
Supplier Name and Remit To Supplier Site fields are defaulted on the invoice header,
as per the below defaulting logic and relationship defined for the Trading Partner
(Invoicing Supplier) at supplier site level.
• Defaulting Logic – Upon selecting the Supplier, Supplier Site and entering the
Invoice Date on the Invoice header, the applicable Remit To Supplier Name and
Remit To Supplier Site are defaulted in the ‘Remit To Supplier Name’ and ‘Remit To
Supplier Site’ fields based on the below:
o If a relationship is marked as ‘Primary’ and if it is an active relationship
as of the Invoice date, then the Supplier and the Supplier Site from the
relationship is defaulted.
o If none of active relationships is marked as ‘Primary’ or no relationships
exist for the Trading Partner and Supplier Site on the Invoice date, then
the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) and Supplier Site are defaulted.
• If you change the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) and Site, the system will
automatically get the Remit To Supplier Name and Remit To Supplier Site fields as
per the relationship defined for the latest Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) name
and site.

Remit To Supplier Site
• The “Remit To Supplier Site” LOV will display only those supplier sites for the
supplier selected in the “Remit To Supplier Name” field for which the relationship is
defined and is active as of the Invoice date.
• A supplier site relationship for the invoice is termed as active if:
o The 3rd
Party supplier site is active for the 3rd
Party supplier. (It is a pre-
requisite that every 3rd
Party needs to be defined as a Supplier).
o The relationship between the Trading Partner’s Supplier Site and the 3rd
Party Supplier site is an active relationship for the Supplier Site as of the
Invoice date.
(Refer to the example given above in this component)
• The “Remit To Supplier Site” LOV will display all the details of the supplier site,
which are shown for the Supplier Site field in the invoice header, namely Site,
Operating Unit, Address, City, State, Province, Postal Code, County and Country.
• As per the defaulting logic, if the Trading Partner (Invoicing Supplier) has defaulted
in the ‘Remit To Supplier Name’ field, then the invoicing site is defaulted on the
‘Remit To Supplier Site’ field. If a Primary Supplier has defaulted then the site for
that Supplier defined in the relationship is automatically defaulted.
• If the value in ‘Remit To Supplier Name’ field is cleared, then the value in the ‘Remit
To Supplier Site’ field is also cleared.
• In the invoice header the field ‘Remit to Supplier Site’ is editable or non-editable
depending on the setup done in the Payables Options. (Refer - Solution Component:
Changes in Payables Options).
