iRAPT (Invoicing, Receipt, Acceptance and Property Transfer) is an Internet-based electronic billing system under the WAWF e-Business Suite portal used by the U. S. government to track and pay invoices from contractors. The contract, invoice, and receiving report are all available within Costpoint, so that acceptance, approval, and payment can be expedited more quickly than a paper-based system. All parties (contractor, inspector, approver, payer) have access to Costpoint and can track the status of the invoice as it proceeds through the payment process. Additionally, email is automatically generated and forwarded to the parties so that all are aware of the status.
Use this application to create the files for loading into iRAPT. The created files are plain text files (viewable in a text editor) with FTP extensions which can be transferred via FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to the iRAPT.
The sales order contains most iRAPT-related information. You can enter iRAPT information specific to the sales order invoice on Manage Invoices screen or Manage Invoices Supervisor Screen. You can assign RFID information on the RFID Details subtask of the Manage Shipping Transactions screen; You can assign UID information on the Serial/Lot Info subtask of the Manage Sales Order Inventory Issues screen or the Manage Sales Order Non-Inventory Issues screen.
Run this process before posting the sales order invoices.

From the drop-down list, select the type of iRAPT file to create for the selected sales order invoices:

Receiving Report Pack Update — This option creates a report that provides RFID/UID information for the supplies represented by the sales order invoice.
Combo — This option creates both a Receiving Report and a Commercial Invoice for supplies.
Commercial Invoice — This option creates a iRAPT invoice for the sales order invoice, but does not create a corresponding Receiving Report.

Enter a name for the file. The file must have an extension of .FTP (for example, S:\Reports\iRAPT Reports\MyFile.ftp).
Enter, or click to select, the location where Costpoint should save the iRAPT file.
