Profile Options

This appendix covers the following topics:

Overview of Profile Options

During implementation, you can set values for profile options at various levels to specify how the Oracle Landed Cost Management application controls access to and processes data. The system administrator sets and updates profile values. For more information see, Setting User Profile Options in the Oracle Applications System Administrator's - Maintenance Guide.

The following profile options are unique to Oracle Landed Cost Management.

Landed Cost Management Profile Options

You can set the profile options described in this section in any order and at any level as indicated in the profile option tables:

In addition, most of the profile options have been provided with default values.

INL: Default Currency Code for QP Charges Generation

This profile option is used in Advanced Pricing integration with Landed Cost Management.

This profile option defines the base currency used when integrating to Oracle Advanced Pricing. All the shipment line amounts are converted to this currency and the currency conversion type indicated in the profile options.

LOV Values Default Value Where Used Supported Levels
All available currency codes Blank Integration with Oracle Advanced Pricing
Generate Charges process		 S/A/R/U

INL: Default Currency Conversion Type for QP Charges Generation

This profile option is used in Advanced Pricing integration with Landed Cost Management.

This profile option defines the currency conversion type used when integrating to Oracle Advanced Pricing. All the shipment line amounts are converted to this currency and the currency conversion type indicated in the profile options.

LOV Values Default Value Where Used Supported Levels
All available currency conversion types Blank Integration with Oracle Advanced Pricing
Generate Charges process		 S/A/R/U

INL: Default Shipment Type for Open Interface

The system uses this profile option to determine the Shipment Type the Landed Cost Management shipment headers will be created with, in the Managing Landed Cost as a Service flow, where Landed Cost Management shipments are automatically created for the receipts.

LOV Values Default Value Where Used Supported Levels
All available shipment types Blank Managing Landed Cost as a Service S/A/R/U

INL: Quantity UOM Class

Use this profile to indicate the class defined for each unit associated with "quantity" cost factors. The system uses this profile to determine the class used for the “quantity” allocation basis. This profile, along with the weight (INL: Weight UOM Class) and volume (INL: Volume UOM Class) profiles drive the Landed Cost Management UOM conversions for the Generate Charges and Calculate processes.

LOV Values Default Value Where Used Supported Levels
All available classes Blank Generate Charges and Calculate processes.
Managing Landed Cost as a Pre-Receiving Application and Managing Landed Cost as a Service		 S/A/R/U

INL: Volume UOM Class

Use this profile to indicate the class defined for each unit associated with "volume" cost factors. The system uses this profile to determine the class used for the “volume” allocation basis. This profile, along with the quantity (INL: Quantity UOM Class) and weight (INL: Weight UOM Class) profiles drive the Landed Cost Management UOM conversions for the Generate Charges and Calculate processes.

LOV Values Default Value Where Used Supported Levels
All available classes Blank Generate Charges and Calculate processes.
Managing Landed Cost as a Pre-Receiving Application and Managing Landed Cost as a Service		 S/A/R/U

INL: Weight UOM Class

Use this profile to indicate the class defined for each unit associated with "weight" cost factors. The system uses this profile to determine the class used for the “weight” allocation basis. This profile, along with the quantity (INL: Quantity UOM Class) and volume (INL: Volume UOM Class) profiles drive the Landed Cost Management UOM conversions for the Generate Charges and Calculate processes.
