Oracle Work in Process Flows

This chapter covers the following topics:

Oracle Work in Process Overview

Oracle Work in Process is the core of Oracle's Discrete Manufacturing solution. Oracle Work in Process by itself provides a complete production management system that improves productivity, quality, and responsiveness while maximizing throughput and production. Inquiries and reports give you a complete picture of transactions, materials, resources, costs, and job. In conjunction with other modules within Oracle Discrete Manufacturing foot print, Oracle Work in Process provides support for enterprise wide quality management, lot and serial genealogy and traceability and support for various methods of planning and cost accounting, irrespective of whether your entire manufacturing is in-house or you use services of contract manufacturers.
