Oracle Financials HCOM Max Total Amount (Price) hold report issue

January 11, 2018

We recently discovered with the implementation of our FINDINI 4.0.12 release that the HCOM Max Total Amount (Price) hold report and notification process is no longer functioning as it once did. The Oracle hold type of Max Total Amount now only applies to invoices using foreign currencies. This was a change within the Oracle product code set released in our FINDINI 4.0.12, and not something HUIT customized or changed. What this means to our end users is that our invoices which are in USD currency will no longer validate against this Max Total Amount hold type, thus this invoice hold type is now nonexistent. The HCOM Max Total Amount (Price) hold report will no longer return valid data.

To combat this issue, we have implemented a new hold type called Max Ship Amount, which will work exactly like the Max Total Amount hold did before our FINDINI, and serve as this Price variance hold. We are currently looking at the HCOM Max Total Amount (Price) hold report and notification process to update this customized report to reflect the Max Ship Amount hold and replace the Max Total Amount hold. The OBI AP Invoice Holds dashboard is unaffected by this issue, and can be leveraged in the interim while we address the Oracle HCOM Max Total Amount (Price) hold report and notification process.
