The Order Organizer enables you to manage existing orders and returns in your system. Using this window you can find your recent orders, orders past their requested shipment date, orders on a particular hold, or orders for an important customer.
When you open the Order Organizer, the Find window is displayed. It enables you to enter search criteria to locate an order or a group of orders. The Find window has the following tabs: Quote/Order Information, Line Information, Advanced, Holds Information, Scheduling. The fields in these tabs enable you to enter or select values which is used as the criteria for finding and displaying orders.
Each of the tabs of the Order Organizer window contain the folder enabled Operating Unit field. You can specify criteria to search for orders and include the Operating Unit field as one of the search criteria or you can leave the field blank to search across all operating units that you have access to. If the Operating Unit field has a value then the LOVs for fields that are Operating Unit sensitive will show data only from that Operating Unit. If the Operating Unit field is blank then those LOVs will show data from all Operating Units accessible to you. If you change or clear the Operating Unit field, the operating unit sensitive fields will be cleared too.
Note: The Related PO Number field in the Find window (Quote/Order Information tab) displays drop-ship orders only and not back-to-back orders.
The Order Organizer window consists of the Navigator Tree and the Search Results (Order Summary) window. Double clicking an entry in the Navigator Tree refreshes the results window to show corresponding orders or lines.
The Operating Unit field is a folder enabled field and can be made visible in the Order Summary tab of the Search Results. The summary window displays order information sorted by Operating Unit. If you have specified sorting parameter(s) using folder functionality, then the Operating Unit will be the last sorting parameter.
Note: The right mouse button is enabled in the Order Organizer window.
Order Organizer Window
The Navigator Tree contains two pre-defined queries and two pre-defined folders to enable administrators and end users to have quick access to their customers' orders.
Today's Orders
Double-clicking on Today's Orders displays information about all orders you entered today in the results window.
Search Results
Selecting the Search Results displays information about orders matching the most recent query criteria you entered in the Find window. You can also save a search and its results to avoid entering it again by using the right mouse button.
Personal Folders
Selecting the Personal Folders expands the tree and shows you a list of queries you have previously saved. To access orders matching any of your saved queries, select the appropriate entry. This way you can organize and access orders you deal with on a regular basis.
Public Folders
If you are an administrator, you may want to pre-define a handful of useful searches and make them available to all of your users. This way, these queries are defined once and everyone does not have to define them individually.
The Find window of the Order Organizer consists of the following tabs: Quote/Order Information, Line Information, Advanced, Holds Information, Scheduling.
The Operating Unit is a folder enabled field and available in all the tabs. It defaults to your default Operating Unit. You can choose another Operating Unit that you have access to from the LOV to restrict your search to that Operating Unit. To expand your search to all Operating Units that you have access to, you can leave the field blank. The fields in the various tabs that are Operating Unit sensitive will behave as follows:
When the Operating Unit field is blank the LOVs for those fields will show values from all Operating Units accessible to you. Once you choose a specific value, the Operating Unit will be populated accordingly. Once the Operating Unit field has a value, the LOVs for all the Operating Unit sensitive fields will show data from only that Operating Unit.
The Order Organizer window displays the fields that are now available to you as a result of the converged inventory models into a single Oracle Inventory model: Secondary Cancelled Quantity, Secondary Fulfilled Quantity,Secondary Shipping Quantity,Secondary Shipped Quantity,Secondary Shipping UOM, Secondary Reserved Quantity. These fields are view only. The Line Information tab has a new field Lot Number that enables you to query for sales order lines using Lot Number (lot-indivisible items) as a criterion.
The operating unit sensitive fields in this tab are:
Order Type
Ship To
Invoice To (Bill To)
Sales Agreement Number
Customer Location
Customer PO Number
Sales Person
Related PO Number
Requisition Number
Order Source Reference
Invoice Number
Deliver To
When the Operating Unit field has no value specified, the Price List LOV displays only those price lists (global or operating unit specific) that belong to the operating unit to which you have access. If there is a default operating unit or one that you have specified, the Price List LOV will show price lists that are global and those that are defined for the specified Operating Unit.
The following fields are operating unit sensitive:
Ship To
Sales Agreement Number
Deliver To
Invoice To (Bill To)
Line Type
Project
Task Number
Ship Set
Fulfillment Set
Customer PO Number
Related PO Number
Price List
Internal Item
Note: LOV's for Related PO Number and Requisition Number display the operating unit as well. For Related PO Number LOV shows Sales Order OU and the Purchase Order OU. For Requisition Number the LOV shows the Sales Order OU and the Requisition OU.
If there is an Operating Unit specified in the Find Window, then the Item LOV will display values based on the Item Validation Organization for that Operating Unit. If the Operating Unit field is blank then the then the Item LOV will display values based on the Item Validation Organization for your default Operating Unit. If you do not specify an Operating Unit or do not have a default Operating Unit set then you will be unable to use Item as a search criteria.
Searching by Customer or Customer Site: The Customer Relationship system parameter setting determines the data displayed in the Ship To/Bill To/Deliver To LOVs when a Sold To Customer Name is specified. If the Operating Unit field has a value and the Sold To is specified, then the Ship To/Bill To/Deliver To LOVs display data based on the Customer Relationship System Parameter setting for that Operating Unit.
You can use this tab to search for Order or Lines on Hold or to search for Hold Sources.
The Holds Information tab in the Order Organizer enables you to search for hold sources, or for order or lines on hold. The operating unit field is folder enabled and displays a default value.
For example,when searching for Hold Sources based on Ship To or Bill To:
If there is a value in the Operating Unit field on the Quote/Order Information tab, the LOVs will show values for Ship To and Bill To from that Operating Unit.
If there is no value specified then the LOVs will show data across all Operating Units accessible to you. When you select a value, the Operating Unit field will be populated based on the value selected.
Clearing or changing the Operating Unit will clear the Ship To or Bill To values.
Hold Source
An Operating Unit will be NOT be required to search for a Order, Blanket, Customer or Warehouse based Hold Source.
You can specify any criteria to search for a hold source. If you specify an operating unit in the Quote/Order Information tab and the hold source was created in that operating unit, the hold source search results will be displayed in the Hold Sources window for that operating unit (click the Hold Sources button in the Holds Information tab to open the Hold Sources window). If you do not specify an operating unit in the Quote/Order Information tab, the search results display the hold source details for all operating units it was created in.
The search criteria for hold sources that you can use are:
Bill To Site
Creation Date
Customer
Deliver To Site
Item
Order
Order Type
Payment Type
Price List
Project Number
Sales Agreement Number
Sales Channel Code
Ship To Site

The Operating Unit is a folder enabled field on this tab. It displays your default Operating Unit. You can choose a different Operating Unit that you have access to from the LOV. If you wish to search for order lines across Operating Units, you can clear the field.
When there is no Operating Unit defaulted or specified, the LOVs for the following Operating Unit sensitive attributes display values from all the Operating Units you have access to:
Order Type
Line Type
Ship To
Project Number
Task Number
When you pick a value for one of these fields, the form will default the Operating Unit and then the LOVs for the other fields will only show values from that Operating Unit. When you clear the Operating Unit field or change the Operating Unit value, the window will clear all the fields listed above.
Please refer to the Lines Information tab above on details regarding searching based on Item. Search by Reservation Set: The LOV for this field will only show you reservation sets that you have created.

Pricing and Availability provides Oracle Order Management users with the two most common requirements concerning customers that request products:
How much is the product going to cost?
Do you have the product in stock now?
Using Oracle Order Management, you can quickly view the price of an item and additionally display the availability of the item (across all the organization setup in the sourcing rule) being priced utilizing the functionality provided within the Pricing and Availability window. The Pricing and Availability window enables you to perform a price check or an availability check by entering an item and then requesting the pricing and availability details for the item.
The Pricing and Availably function within Order Management also enables you to:
Perform price and availability checking without creating an order.
Perform price and availability checking without placing demand or reservations.
Easily create an order or quote if the query results in a customer's decision to buy the item.
Perform price and availability checking by item cross-reference, customer item, or item description.
View both the Selling Price and List Price of a product.
View price breaks, other automatic discounts, and Surcharges as well as other benefits not affecting the selling price currently available for a particular product or customer.
Perform price and availability checking without consuming modifier limits.
Note: All amounts displayed and calculated as a result of a price and availability search use the decimal precision defined for the currency entered or defaulted.
Perform price check what if analysis based upon an Agreement, Price List, Pricing Attribute, Order Quantity, Customer, Currency, Ship To, Bill To, Order Type, Pricing Date, or Request Date.
Perform price checks by specific currency and indicate in which currency you wish to view the calculated Selling Price.
View a limited set of item attribute details.
View related items such as upsell items or cross-sell items, substitutes, supercession items, etc.
Validate your Pricing Setup by ensuring your selling price is correctly returned by the pricing engine prior to placing an order; the selling price will include any eligible discounts and surcharges you have defined.
Note: Pricing and Availability results do not guarantee order line item price or the availability of an item. Within Oracle Order Management price is guaranteed only at the time an order is Booked.
The Available to Promise information in Order Management displays a window that is populated from either APS or on-hand inventory information. Since availability information can be viewed outside of Order Management, only primary inventory quantities are displayed. Secondary quantities that are available as a result of the converged inventory model are not displayed.
Availability is guaranteed only if a hard reservation is placed for an order line against available supply (supply has being allocated to the order line). Successfully scheduling an order line indicates that you have soft pegged existing supply for the item under normal circumstances should be available if you attempt to pick the order line).
The Pricing and Availability window enables you to perform price and availability checking.
Within this release of Oracle Order Management, you cannot use the Pricing and Availability window to perform price and availability checking for models, kits, service items, or Oracle Processing Manufacturing items.
Pricing and Availability results do not guarantee order line item price or the availability of an item. Within Oracle Order Management:
Price is guaranteed only at the time an order is Booked.
Availability is guaranteed only if a hard reservation is placed for an order line against available supply (supply has being allocated to the order line). Successfully scheduling an order line indicates that you have soft pegged existing supply for the item under normal circumstances should be available if you attempt to pick the order line).
The Pricing and Availability window currently does not support availability checking for substitute items.
The Operating Unit is a folder enabled field. It displays the default Operating Unit. You can choose a different Operating Unit that is accessible to you from the LOV. An Operating Unit is required to do a Pricing and Availability check. All the other fields in the window are grayed out if the Operating Unit field has no value. Initial defaulting will not occur unless the Operating Unit field has a value. Changing or clearing the Operating Unit will clear all the other fields.
The Pricing and Availability window utilizes a subset of your existing defaulting rules currently enabled within the Sales Order window. While you can default many different attribute values within the Sales Order window, the Pricing and Availability window uses defaulting rules to include other attributes like Order Type, Bill To, Agreement, Ship To, Demand Class, Currency, Warehouse, demand class, item identifier type, order type, and item Primary UOM.
If defaulting rules are not enabled, Order Management will attempt to default field values in the following manner:
If you enter a Customer, Order Management will default the warehouse and Price List based upon the Customer setup for the Customer Name/Number entered.
If you enter an Item, Order Management will default the Default Shipping Organization (warehouse) and Primary UOM for the organization item definition.
If you enter the Ship To, Order Management will default the warehouse and Price List based upon the Customer setup for the Customer Name/Number entered.
If you enter the Bill To, Order Management will default the Price List based upon the Customer setup for the Customer Name/Number entered.
If you enter an Agreement, Order Management will use the Agreement Price List specified.
The Defaulting framework is used to determine the default warehouse for availability checking in this window. If the item has a preferred shipping location setup in the item definition (Order Management tab), then that location may be used if defaulting from item is part of the defaulting rule. If no warehouse is defaulted (because no rule is set up), then the availability call will be accomplished with a null warehouse, and the sourcing rules are used to determine the appropriate warehouse.
You can view availability across other warehouses that the item is enabled in by selecting the Global Availability tab in the Results block. Once there, you can automatically see the availability in each of the other locations, without taking any other action.
Note: If a warehouse is not defaulted or keyed then the pricing and availability search is initiated with a NULL value for the Warehouse field; your Sourcing Rule definitions are then used to determine the appropriate Ship From warehouse.
Note: However, if defaulting rules for the attribute warehouse are enabled, the defaulting rule will be used to determine the warehouse value.
Note: If the Customer and site information is not entered, then item availability assumes that the item will be shipped from the Warehouse specified in the search region. If the warehouse is not entered, and cannot default, then availability checking assumes that the item will be shipped from the item master validation organization.
Block Pricing Support
The term Block Price means an application method where the price will be defined for the entire set of a block. The use of this Block Pricing concept enables you to set up various price break scenarios, using Point and Range price break types with multiple application methods. For such price breaks, a lump sum price could be used for these blocks in addition to per unit or percent prices. Block Price means Lump sum price or rate. Block pricing details display in the Price Breaks tab as Price List price breaks only.
While working within the Pricing and Availability window, the default action when a user selects the Enter key is to execute a price and availability check; anytime you press the Enter key within the Pricing and Availability window, a new Price and availability check is always initiated.
For example, suppose you enter an item and select the Enter key; a pricing and availability check is initiated. Or, suppose you enter an item, customer name, and Bill To and then select the Enter key; a pricing and availability check is initiated.
Note: If you use Oracle Advanced Pricing Qualifiers and Modifiers to assist the pricing engine in determining selling price, you should include the key qualifying attributes in the Search Region when performing price and availability checking.
Note: For example, suppose you had a Qualifier attached to an item on a price list for a specific Customer: ensure you enter the qualifier, (Customer (name or number)) when performing price and availability checking in order for the pricing engine to properly qualify eligibility. Eligible modifiers attached to the qualifiers will be shown in the Summary Pricing Tab.
Add to Order and Add To Quote Capability
The Pricing and Availability window enables the creation of a quote or an order. To create an order, click Create Order, or to create a quote, click Save as Quote. If you do not want to order the item but instead want to look up the price and availability of another item, you can click New Inquiry to clear the window, or you can just enter another item and start over.
Two new seeded security functions Create Orders from the Pricing and Availability window and Create Quotes in Order Management determine if you can create orders and quotes respectively from the Pricing and Availability window. If these functions securities are not granted to the user of the attached menu, the Create Order and Save as Quote buttons will be hidden and you will not be allowed to create either or both orders and quotes.
Note: OM: Sales Order Form Preference controls whether you see the Sales Orders window or the Quick Sales Orders window once you have clicked to create an order or quote.
Find and Add Customer Integration
Find Customer
You can open the Find Customer window using the Tools menu. Once the search is complete, you can select a customer, and bring that information back to use it in the query of the price and availability of an item for an order.
For more information on the Find Customer window, please refer to the Finding Customer Information section.
Add Customer
You can open the Add Customer window using the Tools menu. After entering the Customer, Address, or Contact information, you can create the new information, to be used in the query of the price/availability of an item for an order. Add Customer functionality is enabled through the tools menu only if the user has the permission to create either Customer or Contact/Sites. This is determined based on the profile OM: Add Customer.
The Add Customer window enables you to create a customer that does not require extensive setup steps. Please refer to the Adding Customers using the Add Customer Window section.
See: Pricing and Availability Overview
All Tabs within the Search region of the window make use of Oracle Applications Folder functionality, enabling you to modify the field's displayed within each tab. All tabs are seeded with the most common searchable attributes to enable complete flexibility to display your most-frequently used Pricing criteria on the Basic (search) Tab. All the items are present in all the tabs through folder functionality.

Advanced pricing benefits may include free or promotional goods, favorable payment, or freight terms, coupons issued, accruals, etc. The customer service representative (CSR) can communicate the accompanying additional benefits to the customer.
What you see in this region depends on the type of additional benefit that is being displayed.
Note: If Advanced Pricing is not fully licensed, these benefits cannot be defined and this tab will not be visible. You can use the Pricing and Availability window with Basic Pricing, however you will not see Additional Benefits or Price List price breaks.
The Item Availability region utilizes Oracle Applications Folder functionality, enabling you to modify the field's display within this tab.
Note: If the Customer and site information is not entered, then item availability assumes that the item will be shipped from the Warehouse specified in the search region. If the warehouse is not entered, and cannot default, then availability checking assumes that the item will be shipped from the item master validation organization.
No data will be shown in this region unless sourcing rules are defined for that item. Even if the item is enabled in organizations, it will not show the availability in those organizations unless there are valid sourcing rules to source the item from those organizations.
ATP inquiry within Order Management utilize Oracle Global Available To Promise data that has been previously collected. Oracle Global Available To Promise verifies that the quantity ordered is available on the request date you specify, and uses the item or organization ATP rule to determine the supply and demand to be considered in the calculation (for both collected and planned data). When you request availability within the Pricing and Availability window, Oracle Global Available To Promise supplies the ATP date and available quantity from APS.
See: Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning User's Guide and Oracle Global Available To Promise User's Guide for additional details.
The Item Availability Tab displays multi-line availability data for all organizations defined by your sourcing rules.
The profile option INV:Capable to Promise determines if you are performing availability checking against planned data or collected data.
If the quantity requested is not available on the Request Date, then availability data will be displayed within the Earliest Available Date field. This date field will also show a date even if the requested quantity is available on the Requested date. It shows null for Non-ATP items in which case the Available Quantity fields shows 'ATP Not Applicable'
Availability is always checked, whether an item is ATP enabled or not. If ATP is not enabled for an item, Order Management will display item availability information even for non-ATP items provided you have defined sourcing rules for the item. If there are no sourcing rules defined for the item, Order Management will not display any details other than the message ATP not applicable within the Available Qty field.
Note: For ATP items, availability can be seen only when Oracle APS is installed.
The following field details are displayed within the Item Availability Tab:
Warehouse, Warehouse Name (either: the warehouse entered in the More Search Tab, the default warehouse as determined by sourcing rules, or the default warehouse as determined by enabled defaulting rules)

Current Selections: The Pricing and Availability window contains a region used as a placeholder for multiple items to later create an order or quote from all or any of them. You can save items to the Current Selections without creating an order or quote. The profile OM: Show Current Selections Region for P/A will control whether the form will display this region or not.
If you select an up-sell, substitute or superceded item and then click Add to Selection, the selected item will replace the original item and be placed in the Current Selections region. You can only select one replacement item.

To clear the Current Selections region, click Clear Selections. To clear the entire window, click Clear Form. To clear only the inquiry section, click New Inquiry.
Repricing of the Current Selections region: Since the price of the main item or the items in the current selections region can depend on other items because there may be cross item discounts, we reprice all the items when an item is deleted from the current selections region. When we price the main item, we consider all the items present in the current selections region, so if there any discounts because of presence of other items, it will be shown. Also, the price of the items in the Current Selections region are updated, if a new item is added to that region as price may change because of additional modifiers because of the new item.
The Hints regions displays messages about the item being queried that alert you to view one or more Results regions. For example, if related items exist, a hint will be displayed. If additional pricing benefits apply to this item, a hint will be displayed. If price breaks exist, a hint will be displayed here. There is also an OM System Parameter where you can enter a Default Hint for Pricing & Availability. If you enter text in that parameter, it will be displayed in the Hints region.

Also if this privilege is FULL, then if the Order Type has Enforce List Price, a manual adjustment cannot be applied. If the privilege is None the user can never apply a manual adjustment.

The Sales Orders and the Quick Order Entry windows contain an enhanced method of finding customers and addresses. Customers may have multiple accounts, so the account name is the same but the account number is different. When several instances of the same customer exist, locating an address or identifying a customer can be difficult. The same situation is applicable to customer contacts. Contacts are associated with either a customer account or an address. The Find Customer Information window enables these searches.
You can use the Find Customer Information window to locate a customer account, address, or a contact. This search can be initialized from both the Sales Orders and Quick Order Entry windows.
The Find Customer Information window can be started four different ways:
Through the new Find Customer icon on the tool bar.
By invoking the List of Values from the following fields: Ship To City, Ship To Postal Code, Ship To Address2, Ship To Address4, Ship To Address5, Invoice To City, Invoice To Postal Code, Invoice To Address2, Invoice To Address4, Invoice To Address5, End Customer Address2, End Customer Address4, End Customer Address5, Customer Location Address2, Customer Location Address4, or Customer Location Address5. This allows you to search using different attributes.
By entering a partial value and then tabbing out of the above fields.
Through the right mouse menu Customer >Find Customer.
On the Quick Order Entry window the Find Customer Information window can be opened in the Addresses window either from the Tools menu, by a right mouse click, or from the Find Customer icon, in addition to the methods mentioned above.
Note: The Find Customer Information window can be invoked in the Quick Order Entry window from the Tools menu when the cursor is in the order header region.
Find Customer Information Window
The Operating Unit field is folder enabled in the Find Customer window. The field will default the Operating Unit from the Sales Order window. If there is no default then you can select an Operating Unit accessible to you from the LOV. An Operating Unit is required before you can specify other search criteria.
Phone country code & Phone extension are hidden fields and can be displayed using folder functionality.
The phone number field can be used for looking up a customer. The phone number can be either a customer phone number or a phone number associated with a specific address.
Note: The telephone number will search for a match at the customer or site level only. Searching on partial telephone numbers is not supported.
Order takers need the ability to rapidly identify what product their customers want to order, and to search for items using different methods and parameters. Some of the parameters needed by customers include:
Item description
Category
Catalog information
Manufacturer
Form, fit, and function
The list of specific parameters will vary by industry. Users need the ability to access electronic catalogs of goods supplied by different manufacturers and order by characteristics that vary frequently. For example, a distributor of CDs, DVDs, or videos may take orders by the Current Chart Position or the catalog number, artist, title, etc. All these methods of searching for the item are available from the Advanced Item Search window, which can be called from the Sales Orders or Quick Sales Orders windows, and once an item is selected, it creates the sales order line.
Note: The Advanced Item Search functionality will not support returns. In case of returns, you will need to identify the item to return. You can identify this item from the sales order or search for the item to return from the Simple Ordered Item Search LOV.
Advanced Item Search From the Sales Orders Window
You can access the Advanced Item Search from the Sales Orders window. Once the item has been located, you can create an order line with the selected item.
Validation of the Item Sent to the Order Line
Using the Sales Orders window, choose the Actions menu to access the Advanced Search page. Along with entered search criteria as specified in the Advanced Search page, the following restrictions apply while performing the query:
Items returned by the query must be customer order enabled.
Items must be enabled in the inventory organization passed by Order Management. Order Management passes the item validation organization of the operating unit which is associated with the responsibility of the person entering the order. This ensures that the selected items will be valid when returned to the sales order.
Note: It is not the item status that is considered during order entry. The flag Customer Order Enabled controls if an item can be entered through sales order pad and the flag Internal Order Enabled controls if an item can be ordered internally. Item status controls values of the 8 "status" attributes (stockable, transactable, purchasable, customer order enabled etc.). See the Oracle Inventory User's Guide, Item Setup.
Select Multiple Items From a Single Search
More than one item may be selected, and they are sent back to the Sales Orders window. The default quantity added to the order line will be 1.
