We discuss these business processes in the associated business process chapters of this implementation guide.

1.3 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing Integrations

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing is an integrated solution that supports JD Edwards EnterpriseOne base functionality. The system is integrated to support the manufacturing industry.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing is not fully integrated into supply chain management as some base functionality, such as forecast consumption, returned material authorization, and repetitive manufacturing, is not available.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing integrates with these JD Edwards EnterpriseOne products from Oracle:

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Financials product from Oracle provides a versatile, cost-effective, and timesaving solution for managing your financial information. You use the systems that comprise the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Financials product to track information that financial users typically share.

1.3.2 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management system from Oracle stores item information, sales and purchasing costs, and quantities that are available by location. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing uses the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management system to set up production controlled items.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management enables you to track materials between inventory or storage locations and the shop floor. You can manage inventory issues and commitments, complete orders, and track order quantities throughout the production process.

1.3.3 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Manufacturing Management

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Manufacturing Management product from Oracle includes several JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems, including Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management system.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management system enables you to control the flow of materials inside and outside the plant by managing and tracking manufacturing work orders. It provides an effective way to maintain and communicate information that the system requires to complete production requests.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement and Subcontract Management product from Oracle includes several JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems, including the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system from Oracle.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system controls all aspects of purchasing activities. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement enables you to generate purchase orders for raw materials to use in manufacturing items that are production controlled.

1.3.5 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning product from Oracle contains several JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems, including the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Forecast Management systems from Oracle.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning system from Oracle uses sales orders and forecasts to pass demand for items down through the bills of material to the components. The system also uses bills of material to determine component requirements for planned orders and work orders without a parts list.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Distribution Requirements Planning, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Master Production Schedule, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Material Requirements Planning provide suggested purchasing and manufacturing orders that are required to maintain a valid production schedule.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Forecast Management system generates sales projections that are used to create demand and develop the master production schedule. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Project Manufacturing uses the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Forecast Management system to set up forecasts for production controlled items and associated production numbers.
