Introduction
Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing is not a new function, in fact, it’s been around for quite some time in different Oracle versions. However Oracle has made major improvements to Intercompany functionality in Release 12, and this new globalized scenario will help companies lower costs and improve operating efficiencies.
This paper discusses the fundamentals behind Oracle R12 Intercompany Invoicing and highlights this transaction flow.
Why Should I use Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing?
Intercompany Invoicing is a necessary evil that companies must manage when they reach a certain size. On the one hand it is a fundamental process that insures that internal resources get allocated properly and transparently. However, properly documenting Intercompany transactions can seem like added unnecessary bureaucracy and red tape to what is, after all, and internal process. Fortunately, Oracle R12’s enhancements help you keep this process manageable. Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing provides an option to companies with multiple operating units that transfers material from one Inventory organization that belong to one operating unit to another Inventory organization that belong to another operating unit. Here is a quick look at some of the specific features of Oracle R12 Intercompany Invoicing:
Automatization – Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing reduce manual operations involved in a typical transfer. This flow automatically creates Sales Orders and generates the Intercompany Invoices in Account Receivables and Account Payables. In addition, if you use Advanced Supply Chain Planning you can even create the Internal Requisition automatically. This means that the only human interaction points are actual picking and shipping of the goods and the receiving them inside the Inventory organization.
Accuracy – Fewer mistakes will be made since Oracle handles most of the flow’s operations.
Flexibility – You can add / disable different Operating units to use this flow at any given time. You can also run this flow in parallel with other options, like creating a Purchase orders in the requesting operating unit and manual Sales order within the sourcing Operating unit.
Oracle has recently added functionality in R12 such as “shipping documents” that further enhance the Intercompany Invoicing flow. R For example this enhancement in Oracle Shipping that allows you to easily modify documents in XML gives you the flexibility to gather all the information you need. In addition the performance for the concurrent “Create Intercompany AR invoices” and “Create Intercompany AP Invoices” has been improved.

Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoice – Identifying Prices and Costs
Every organization needs to understand where its prices and cost are coming from. Oracle R12 Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing provides four elements that help and organization define its prices and identify its costs:
Internal Requisition
Internal Sales Order
Shipping
Intercompany Invoice
Internal Requisition
Oracle populates the Internal Requisition “Price“ field based on the Item cost as determined by the sourcing Organization. If the Currency in the source organization is different than the currency of the Requesting operating unit, an exchange rate will be applied based on the setup of the profile options.
Internal Sales Order
The Price flag for Internal Sales Order is No. In other words, you will see the field called “Calculate Price Flag” as Freeze Price.
The Selling price for the internal sales order lines will be coming from the internal requisition. In other words, it will be the item cost of the source organization.
Shipping
The Shipping part of the flow will create an internal Inter Org Transfer (based on the Shipping networks setup).

IT Convergence White Paper 14 / 15
The cost used here will depend on the profile option CST: Transfer Pricing
If the value selected is No, Oracle will use the item cost
If the value selected is other option, Oracle will use a price list using the Transfer pricing functionality.
Intercompany Invoice
The AR Invoice will get the Price from a Price List. This can be either defaulted from the Internal Customer Bill to Site or based on the use of Qualifiers depending on the setup of the profile option INV: Advanced Pricing for Intercompany Invoicing
Intercompany Function
Implementing Internal Orders with Intercompany Invoicing comes with its unique set of challenges, just as any Oracle workflow does.
