The FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK table in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 or 12.2.2 is a critical component of the Accounts Receivable (AR) and Accounts Payable (AP) modules, specifically designed to validate and ensure the integrity of final payment or receipt transactions before they are processed. This table acts as a checkpoint to verify key financial data, preventing errors that could lead to reconciliation issues or compliance violations. Below is a detailed breakdown of its purpose, structure, and significance in Oracle EBS.

Purpose of FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK

The primary function of the FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK table is to perform validation checks on transactions before they are finalized in AR or AP. These checks include verifying:
  • Document Sequencing: Ensures invoices, payments, and receipts follow the correct numbering sequence as per organizational policies.
  • Accounting Period Status: Confirms that transactions are posted in open accounting periods to prevent period closure errors.
  • Tax Compliance: Validates tax calculations and ensures adherence to regional tax regulations.
  • Currency and Exchange Rates: Checks for accurate currency conversions and valid exchange rates.
  • Approval Workflows: Ensures transactions have passed all necessary approvals before processing.

Table Structure

The FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK table typically includes the following key columns:
  • TRANSACTION_ID: Unique identifier for the transaction being validated.
  • TRANSACTION_TYPE: Specifies whether the transaction is AR (receipt) or AP (payment).
  • CHECK_TYPE: Indicates the type of validation performed (e.g., period status, tax, document sequence).
  • STATUS: Reflects whether the validation passed (SUCCESS) or failed (ERROR).
  • ERROR_MESSAGE: Stores detailed error descriptions if validation fails.
  • CREATION_DATE: Timestamp of when the validation was performed.

Integration with Oracle EBS Modules

The table integrates with several EBS modules:
  • Accounts Receivable (AR): Validates customer receipts, credit memos, and invoices before posting to GL.
  • Accounts Payable (AP): Ensures supplier payments and invoices comply with financial controls.
  • General Ledger (GL): Acts as a bridge to confirm accounting entries are accurate before GL posting.

Technical Workflow

When a user finalizes a transaction in AR or AP, the system triggers the FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK validation process:
  1. The transaction data is temporarily held in the table.
  2. Predefined validation rules are executed sequentially.
  3. If all checks pass, the transaction proceeds to GL posting.
  4. If any check fails, the transaction is halted, and errors are logged for correction.

Customization and Extensions

Organizations can extend the functionality of FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK by:
  • Adding custom validation rules via Oracle PL/SQL scripts.
  • Integrating with third-party tax engines for advanced compliance checks.
  • Leveraging Oracle Workflow Builder to enhance approval routing.

Conclusion

The FV_ARAP_FINAL_CHECK table is a cornerstone of financial data integrity in Oracle EBS, ensuring that AR and AP transactions meet organizational and regulatory standards before being processed. Its role in preventing errors, enforcing compliance, and streamlining workflows makes it indispensable for financial operations in EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2.
