· V- Interface from Oracle Payables – Upon creation set to Received

· P – Pending – Upon execution of Distribute Cost Process after Supplier Invoice Adjustments

· G – If payables rules do not allow adjustments to the invoice (example: if the invoice is cancelled), then distribute supplier invoice adjustments program would create the CDL and set the value to (G), these lines will always reside in Oracle Projects and will not be transferred to Oracle Payables

· A – Transfer Costs – If successfully transferred to Oracle Payables, set to Accepted

· X – Rejected in transfer to Oracle Payables, set to Rejected in Transfer
