Transaction Source Types

A transaction source type is the type of entity against which Oracle Inventory charges a transaction. Along with a transaction action, it uniquely identifies the type of transaction you perform. Oracle Inventory provides the following predefined transaction source types :

Purchase Order

Sales Order

Account

Job or Schedule

Account Alias

Internal Requisition

Internal Order

Cycle Count

Physical Inventory

Standard Cost Update

RMA (Return Material Authorization)

Inventory

You can define additional transaction source types in the Transaction Source Types window. You can then use these user-defined transaction source types and predefined transaction actions to define a new transaction type. This user-defined transaction type is now a customized form of tracking transactions with which you can group and sort reports and inquiries. When you perform a transaction, you specify a transaction type and a source. For example, for a PO receipt transaction, the transaction source type is Purchase Order and the actual PO number is the source.
