Cash Management
Oracle Cash Management is an integrated solution for managing liquidity and controlling cash. Cash
Management provides direct access to expected cash flows from operational systems. It enables the user
to quickly analyze enterprise-wide cash requirements and currency exposures, ensuring liquidity and
optimal use of cash resources.
Thus it helps in:

Forecasting cash flows in any currency and in multiple time periods

Streamlining the reconciliation process

Monitoring for exceptions and fraud

Forecasting based on historical or future transactions

Managing the cash cycle efficiently and with control

Document Purpose
This document gives the Configuration template for Cash Management Module in Oracle Applications
R12. Projects can reuse this by adding the customization related configuration steps. The Spreadsheet
attached at the end of the document shows details of the set-ups.
The Document Name should also contain the instance name. Whenever there are several instances, it is
important to maintain a configuration document for each instance, and update it, as and when changes are
made to set-ups in that instance.

The Configuration Template has several sheets.

First sheet is to be used for version control. The Second Sheet is CM Setups.
This Sheet lists down various set-up steps. Each step has a hyperlink, and opens up the relevant sheet in
the configuration document, the lines in grey are not included in this configuration template as they are
covered as a part of General ledger and Payables setups.
Each of the following sheets represents a step in the configuration.
Sheets SA-1, SA-2 and SA-3 correspond to the steps required to be done by the system administrator:

Defining responsibility: for defining various cash management responsibilities as per the system
design, so as to give only authorised access to the users.

Assign profile values: this step is to set the applicable profile options for each of the
responsibilities created.

Configuring the legal entity to the responsibility: this is a required step in R12 and acts as an
added security feature, only after this configuration can bank accounts be created, modified or
accessed by any responsibility.

The remaining sheets of the document represent the setups to be done within the cash management
module. The various required setups covered in these are:

Defining Banks: In R12 all banks and bank branches are defined in cash management module.

Defining Bank Accounts: bank accounts are owned by legal entities in R12 and thus can be
shared across all the operating units attached to the owner legal entity.

Defining System Parameters: these are the basic setups for the cash management system.

Define Bank Transaction Codes: banks use various codes for different transactions types, define
your codes as per your requirement. These shall be used for reconciliation purposes.
