Credit Card Transaction Files How They Are Processed
When you implement the corporate credit card functionality for Oracle Fusion Expenses, one of the
essential decisions you need to make is whether your company or its employees are responsible for
paying the credit card issuer.
The entire credit card transactions process flow is different for each of the three payment options.
Fusion Expenses as product has three standard offering which is based out of 3 model in which they can
choose any one of them , as described below:
1. Individual Pay where the employee pays the corporate card issuer for all corporate card transactions
2. Company Pay where your company pays the corporate card issuer for all transactions
3. Both Pay where your company pays the corporate card issuer for business expenses and the employee pays
the corporate card issuer for personal expenses

Choosing the Correct Transaction File Format
Your company must verify that the corporate card issuer's file format is supported by Oracle Fusion Expenses.
Expenses supports the following corporate card transaction file formats:
American Express KR1025 format
American Express GL1025 format
American Express GL1080 format
Diner's Club Standard Data File format
MasterCard Common Data Format, version 2.0 (CDF 2.0)
MasterCard Common Data Format, version 3.0 (CDF 3.0)
Visa VCF3 format
Visa VCF4 format
Corporate card issuers require your company to provide organizational hierarchy information that they set up in their
system to satisfy your company's reporting and billing needs. The organizational hierarchy associates the corporate
cards issued to your employees with the appropriate organizations within your company.
Corporate card issuers can provide your company with a single file containing all company transactions or a separate
transaction file for each organizational hierarchy. Expenses processes both types of transactions files. To obtain the
appropriate file for your company, communicate your preference to the corporate card issuer.

Establishing File Transfer Connectivity
Work with your card issuer to determine the secure file transfer method that meets your
company's security requirements.
A secure connection between the card issuer and your company is required to receive
the transaction file from the card issuer's server.
To process the transaction files, Expenses must have read access to the directory location
in which the transaction files are stored.
Note: For American Express files, Expenses supports automatic download of corporate card transaction files from the
American Express server.

provided by the corporate card issuer. Work with your card issuer to identify the
transactions that you want to include in the test files and the number of test files you
require.

Creating Corporate Cards
There are two ways to create corporate cards. You can choose either of the following options at different
points in time or you can perform both simultaneously.
Automatic Corporate Card Creation: Automatic corporate card creation applies only to travel cards. Travel cards are corporate cards that
are used for travel. New employees are typically handed new corporate cards, but the information on the cards is not manually entered into the
application at that time. You can create corporate cards automatically by selecting an employee matching rule for new cards on the Upload Rules tab on
the Create Corporate Card Program page. Then, when the corporate card transaction file containing transactions for the new card is uploaded for the
first time to the application, the corporate card transaction upload and validation process uses the matching rule to uniquely match the new corporate
card to the new employee. The application automatically enters the transaction data for the new corporate card and associates it with the applicable
employee using the specified rule. If the rule fails to identify a unique match, the application leaves the corporate card unassigned. If desirable, each
corporate card program can have a different matching rule.
Manual Corporate Card Creation: You can manually create corporate cards for employees in the Create Corporate Card popup where you
enter the following data:
Corporate card program
Company account name
Corporate card number
Employee name and number
Expiration date
Maximum amount per transaction (applicable only for procurement cards)
Maximum amount per billing period (applicable only for procurement cards)

Mapping Rules: Explained
The corporate card expense type mapping rule is a correspondence between the
transaction code that appears in the card feed file and the applicable predefined
corporate card expense type. This linkage enables the application to automatically
populate expense types for transactions in the expense report.
To automatically default expense types in expense reports, you must perform the
following steps:
1. Define corporate card feed file transaction codes as lookup types.
2. Map predefined corporate card expense types to feed file transaction codes.
3. Assign the mapping rule to the corporate card program.
4. Map predefined corporate card expense types to user-defined expense types in the
default expense template for each business unit.

Mapping Rules: Explained
Define Feed File Transaction Codes
Corporate card issuers provide the transaction codes for each transaction in a corporate card feed file. These transaction
codes, whether MIS Industry Codes, SIC Codes, or merchant category codes, must be set up in the application as lookups.
Oracle Fusion Expenses provides predefined lookup types so you can define these transaction codes.
Map Corporate Card Expense Types to Transaction Codes
Expenses provides predefined corporate card expense types in a single lookup type. This lookup type can be extended to
include your company's specific expense types. Then you must associate the predefined corporate card expense types
with the corporate card transaction codes. This association is known as a mapping rule.
Assign Mapping Rule to Corporate Card Program
To enable the upload process to use the correct mapping rule, you must assign a mapping rule to the corporate card
program. You can set up multiple mapping rules to default expense types into expense reports for both summary
transactions, known as eFolio or Level 2, and detail transactions, known as Level 3.
Map Corporate Card Expense Types to Expense Types
To default expense types into expense reports, you must perform a final setup. In the expense template, you associate the
predefined corporate card expense types with your user-defined expense types. The upload process uses the mapping in
the default expense template for the business unit of the transaction to derive the expense type to be displayed for the
corporate card expense.

How Corporate Card Transactions for Inactive Employees
are Processed
The figure shows the different starting points of the following processes:
Upload Corporate Card Transactions
Process Inactive Employees' Corporate Card Transactions
December 17, 2017 Copyright 2016, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. | 29
How Corporate Card Transactions for Inactive Employees
are Processed
To manually run the Upload Corporate Card Transactions process from the Corporate Cards work area, click the Upload
Corporate Card Transactions link in the Tasks list. First, this process validates and uploads corporate card transactions
to Expenses. Second, if the process identifies unpaid corporate card transactions for an inactive employee, the process
called Process Corporate Card Transactions for Inactive Employees initiates.
Once the process called Process Corporate Card Transactions for Inactive Employees is initiated and unpaid corporate
card transactions are found for inactive employees, a notification is sent to the inactive employee's direct manager.
If the direct manager does not have delegation access, he receives a notification, informing him that corporate card
transactions exist for an inactive employee, for which he can either accept delegation access or reassign it to another
person.
If no unpaid corporate card transactions exist for an inactive employee, then delegation access is removed from the
manager if it was assigned previously.
If the direct manager already has delegation access, he receives a notification, informing him that corporate card
transactions exist for an inactive employee. The manager can then submit the unpaid corporate card transactions in an
expense report on behalf of the inactive employee.
When unpaid corporate card transactions for inactive employees are submitted in an expense report and are
approved, processed, and paid, delegation access is removed from the direct manager or other designated person.
