This program to release payment holds on supplier invoices in Oracle Payables for these project costs. You can schedule to run this program on a regular basis.
The program considers supplier invoices for a project based on the parameters you enter. For a supplier invoice with billable expenditure items on different projects, the program releases the hold only if all these projects are enabled for automatic release of pay when paid invoices and all expenditure items are billed and fully paid.
If you adjusted supplier costs, the program considers only the latest customer invoice created on the adjusted expenditure item as linked to the supplier invoice. In case of manual linking, you must manually link the latest customer invoice after adjustment before you run this program. For more information on adjustments, see Types of Expenditure Item Adjustments.
You can use the Pay When Paid client extension to override the concurrent program. For example, you can use the client extension to pay all supplier invoices under $1000 without waiting for payment on corresponding customer invoices. In this case, when you run the Release Pay when Paid Holds concurrent program, the program calls the client extension that you customized for your needs and based on this client extension, the program releases all supplier invoices for under $1000 without checking for payment on these linked customer invoices.
For more information on the Pay When Paid client extension, use the Integrated SOA Gateway responsibility to access the Integration Repository application. In the Integration Repository, navigate to the Oracle Projects product from the Projects Suite product family.

This program creates the Supplier Invoice Release report. This report displays released supplier invoices, unreleased supplier invoices, and ineligible projects. For released and unreleased invoices, the report displays project, invoice, supplier, and purchase order details.
If you ran the program in draft mode, released supplier invoices are those marked for release; in final mode, these are invoices for which payment holds were released. Unreleased supplier invoices include those considered for the release of payment holds and found ineligble for the given exception reason. Ineligible projects include those projects not considered by the program and the reason for them not being considered.
