Cash Management Setup Checklist

This checklist summarizes each of the steps you follow to implement Cash
Management. It includes setup steps for data that may be shared with other Oracle
Applications, which Cash Management requires. If you have already defined this
System Setup 2-5
Information when setting up other Oracle Applications, you can skip those steps. This
shared data includes:
• Currencies
• Exchange Rates
• Organizations
• Sets of Books
• Bank Accounts
Since some setup steps build upon information you define in other steps, you should
perform them in the order listed.
After you complete some setup steps, you can submit reports to review your work
and confirm that you have successfully completed the step. For example, after you
complete entering bank transaction codes, you can submit the Bank Transaction
Codes Listing.
