You must start the material cost transaction manager to cost material transactions. This manager processes costing of all material transactions. You must also start the move transaction manager so that assemblies received from an outside processing supplier can be moved to the next operation.

You do not have to launch these transaction managers if you decide to process all your transactions on-line and do not use the transaction interface.

The use of multiple transaction workers enables parallel processing of transactions. This is especially helpful when processing a large batch of transactions.

   To view and update the transaction managers:

1. Navigate to the Interface Managers window. All existing transaction managers and their current status are displayed.

2. Enter the maximum number of rows to assign to the worker.

3. For WIP Move Transactions only: Specify the processing timeout in hours and minutes. After this time the move transaction manager no longer processes pending transactions and marks them as an error.

4. Save your work.

   To launch a transaction manager:

1. Select a transaction manager in the Interface Managers window.

2. Choose Launch Manager from the Special menu.

The Launch Inventory Managers window appears displaying the transaction manager you choose as the process to be submitted.

Note: If the transaction manager is already active, Oracle Inventory displays a warning before displaying the new window.

3. Select a resubmit level.

You can enter the start date and time to resubmit the transaction manager or an interval of time that the transaction manager polls the interface table for pending transactions.

4. Choose Submit.

   To see your changes reflected in the Interface Managers window:

• Requery the Interface Managers window.
