EMEA localization Specialist

Role Title: EMEA localization Specialist
Dates: Aug-For approx. 2-3 months
Location: Remote
Description: US Consultant with EMEA localization experience
Environment and Background:

  • Customer is experiencing issues with the setup and configuration process for Localization for EBS 12.2.5.
  • They currently have Single Global Instance of EBS 12.2.5 on 19c Oracle Database. There are 40 operating units. The focus of implementation now is for Italy, Spain, and Portugal rollout. The documentation provided by Oracle is insufficient for implementing localization. The Value Added Tax (VAT) functionality has been implemented and functions correctly, but the rest of the listed functionality needs assistance configuring localization.
  • They are encountering difficulties with the sequencing of the implementation. DFFs (Descriptive Flexfields) and patches are required for the reports. Many of the reports are listed in the OOTB localization section. However, they don't have an idea which ones will be useful.
  • Current Status: Standard Functionality implementation is almost complete for the above regions. The remainder of the year will be dedicated to localization and testing, with the go-live planned for next summer, including localization efforts.

The modules that need to be configured are:

  • Account Receivables
  • OLFM (Oracle Lease and Finance Management)
  • AR (Accounts Receivable)
  • AP (Accounts Payable)
  • FA (Fixed Assets)
  • GL (General Ledger)

While gathering requirements for the Mediterranean project it became very clear that there are many special tax and other local requirements that are unique to the area. These requirements cannot be handled with normal EbTax configurations. We have loaded the localization patches that Oracle suggested and attempted to configure the functionality to the best of our ability. We have used documents on Metalink to try and assist with those configurations but they are not very clear. Any document we view always has links to other documents and you end up lost in a maze. In the interest of time and this project we believe there is a need to bring in a consultant who has worked with the EMEA localizations to help us with the configuration and testing of the functionality.
Specific functionality we would like to use from the localizations:
Italy

  • VAT Registers
  • Document Sequencing (currently an ER with Oracle)
  • Bollo Tax configuration and reporting
  • Self-assessed VAT where an AR invoice is also generated
  • Configuration of VAT limits for customers

Spain

  • VAT Registers
  • Document Sequencing (currently an ER with Oracle)
  • Self-assessed VAT where an AR invoice is also generated

Portugal

  • VAT Registers
  • SELO Tax configuration and Reporting
  • Document Sequencing (currently an ER with Oracle)
  • Self-assessed VAT where an AR invoice is also generated
  • There are also MANY reports that come with the localizations if we can understand how to use the DFF’s and what to populate in order to get the reports to run properly.

Job Type: Full-time

Schedule:

  • 8 hour shift

Experience:

  • Oracle Lease and Finance Management (Preferred)
  • Account Receivables (Preferred)

Work Location: Remote
