Oracle Fusion Applications use business process models with declarative approval rules. The correct approach is to define an approval rule based on amount thresholds and assign it to the relevant document type (e.g., Standard Purchase Order). This is a configuration task, not a customization, aligning with best practices for maintainability and upgrade safety.

In Oracle Applications, subledgers (like Payables, Receivables) and the General Ledger maintain their own period statuses. A transaction can have a valid date in the subledger’s open period, but if the corresponding GL period is not open, the journal import will fail. The first step is to verify and synchronize the period statuses between the subledger and GL.

The correct method is to use the built-in BI Publisher tooling. Creating a new data model based on a pre-built subject area (like ‘General Ledger – Journals Real Time’) ensures you use official, upgrade-safe views. Designing the layout in the report editor provides a reusable, maintainable asset that can be scheduled and secured properly.

The transition of order lines through statuses is primarily governed by Oracle Workflow. A delay at a specific status point is most often due to a workflow activity (like an approval, notification, or custom function) that is pending or stuck. Analyzing the ‘OM Line Booking’ workflow process will directly reveal the cause, such as a mandatory approval waiting for a manager’s action.

For items to appear in the self-service catalog for requisitioning, they must be made available to users. This is done by adding items to a ‘shopping list’ (like a public list) and ensuring that list is part of the catalog category structure assigned to the user’s buying organization. Simply defining an item in Inventory is not sufficient for Procurement.

Oracle Fusion uses Data Security Policies (often defined within roles) to control access to business objects (like Invoices) based on attributes (like department, cost center, legal entity). This is the declarative, fine-grained method for implementing row-level security, ensuring users see and act only on the data they are authorized for.

Electronic payments require a valid payment document (like an EFT format) linked to a specific bank account. The payment process profile selects a payment document. If the bank account was changed but the payment document was not updated or recreated for the new account, the payment engine will fail with this type of error. This is a core Payables setup dependency.

Descriptive Flexfields are the standard, supported method for extending Oracle Applications to capture additional, business-specific information on existing forms and tables. Creating a DFF on the PO Lines entity allows you to add the ‘Sustainability Score’ field that will be stored, displayed, and queried within the standard application framework.

Interface tables in Oracle Applications typically hold data in a staging area. Records remain in a ‘PENDING’ status when the import concurrent program encounters validation errors. The correct troubleshooting step is to check the log/output of the import program, which will detail why specific rows failed (e.g., missing project task, closed period, inactive resource).
