Oracle Fusion refers to a suite of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software applications developed by Oracle Corporation. The term “p2p” typically stands for “procure-to-pay,” which is a process that involves various stages in a business, including requisitioning, purchasing, receiving, and paying for goods and services. A peer-to-peer (p2p) technical flow in Oracle Fusion might refer to the technology-driven process for managing the procure-to-pay cycle within the Oracle Fusion ERP system.

Here’s a general overview of the typical technical flow for the procure-to-pay process in Oracle Fusion:

1. Requisition Creation:

   • Users create requisitions for goods or services needed in the organization.
   • Requisitions can be created manually or generated automatically based on various factors.

2. Requisition Approval:

   • Requisitions often need to go through an approval workflow before further processing.
   • Approvers receive notifications and can review and approve/reject requisitions through the Oracle Fusion interface or mobile app.

3. Purchase Order Generation:

   • Once a requisition is approved, a purchase order (PO) is generated.
   • The PO contains details of the requested items, quantities, pricing, and supplier information.

4. Supplier Communication:

   • The PO is electronically transmitted to the chosen supplier(s) through Oracle Fusion.
   • Suppliers can acknowledge and accept the PO, indicating their commitment to fulfilling the order.

5. Goods Receipt:

   • Upon receiving the goods/services, the receiving department records the receipt in the Oracle Fusion system.
   • This step updates inventory and triggers subsequent processes like invoice matching.

6. Invoice Processing:

   • Suppliers send invoices for the delivered goods/services.
   • Invoices can be manually entered or matched electronically against the PO and receipt data to ensure accuracy.

7. Invoice Approval:

   • Invoices often go through an approval workflow similar to requisitions.
   • Approvers review and approve/reject invoices to ensure they are accurate and legitimate.

8. Payment Processing:

   • Once an invoice is approved, the payment process is initiated.
   • Payment can be initiated through Oracle Fusion’s integrated financial management module.

9. Supplier Payment:

   • The approved payment is sent to the supplier through the chosen payment method (e.g., electronic funds transfer).
   • The payment details are recorded in the Oracle Fusion financials.

10. Reporting and Analysis:

• Oracle Fusion provides reporting and analytical tools to monitor and analyze the procure-to-pay process.
• Users can track spending, supplier performance, and other relevant metrics.
