CTO Change Order Process

CTO Change Order is an Oracle Configure to Order workflow process that initiates if you change one of the following sales order attributes after a configuration item has been created:

This process is also initiated if you cancel an order.

This process sends a notification about the change(s) to different people depending on which item has been modified: If configured and ATO items are changed, a notification is sent to the planner of the top model/item in the shipping organization. For Purchase to Order ATO items, a notification is sent to the buyer on the requisition. Only one message is sent for all changes accepted in an order line. If the planner information is unavailable, the notification is redirected to the system administrator. The notification process cannot be initiated using the Sales Orders or any windows, it is automatically generated by the system.

For single-level, single-organization configurations and ATO items a notification is sent only if a reservation or flow schedule exists for the configuration. If there are configuration changes, a notification is sent even if no reservation exists.

For multi level, or multi organization configurations and ATO items a notification of the changes is always sent, regardless of whether a reservation exists for the top level configuration or ATO Item.

Note: Note: Please note that notifications for drop shipments are not sent using this process.

The Change Order Process is contained in the seeded data file CTO Change Order and is associated with the CTO Change Order item type. For more information on the CTO Change Order process, please refer to the Oracle Configure to Order Process Guide.

Line Flow Generic, Performance is a more recent line flow optimized for high volume users who have performance concerns. It is functionally the same as Line Flow-Generic, but performance is improved by placing the subprocesses at the top level/main process.

If your performance is satisfactory and you are currently using Line Flow – Generic, you will probably want to continue to use the initially seeded generic flow. The traditional Line Flow – Generic has everything decomposed into subprocesses, which could make it easier to extend the flow. For example, you could add an activity to the top level/main flow without modifying the subprocesses seeded by Order Management. Then you could update a subprocess via patching, without the need to add your changes. If you are modifying the seeded flow, it may be beneficial to use Line Flow – Generic instead of Line Flow-Generic, Performance.

It is possible to extend or even customize Line Flow-Generic, Performance, but then you will have to make your changes to a copy of the line flow any time it is updated via a patch.

Line Flow - Generic, Performance can only end once the line is successfully closed.

The Line Flow - Generic, Performance process is contained in the Seeded Data File oexwford.wft and is associated with the OM Order Line item type.

Summary of the Line Flow - Generic, Performance Process

To view the properties of the Line Flow - Generic, Performance process, select the process in the navigator tree and then select Properties from the Edit menu. This process is runnable, which indicates that it can be assigned to a transaction type.

The Details property page of the process activity indicates that the Line Flow - Generic, Performance process has an error item type of OMERROR. This item type is associated with the R_ERROR_RETRY error process. The purpose of this error handling process is to alert an administrator when an error occurs in a process and prompt the administrator to retry the process in error. This error process is initiated only when an unexpected error with Oracle Workflow is encountered in the process.

When you display the Process window for the Line Flow - Generic, Performance, you see that the process consists of 7 unique activities and 2 subprocesses that appear in the workflow diagram. The following diagram depicts the Line Flow - Generic, Performance process.

Line Flow - Generic, Performance Workflow 1

the picture is described in the document text

The Line Flow - Generic, Performance workflow begins with the Wait for Booking subprocess. This function verifies that the order is booked before proceeding to the next step in the workflow.

The process then attempts to schedule the order line using the Schedule activity. If the order line is manually changed to incomplete or on hold, the Schedule - Eligible function will be used, otherwise the Schedule activity moves the workflow forward as complete. The Branch on Source Type function uses the lookup (has a result type of) Source Type. The source types include: ATO Item, Build, Dropship, and Ship (default). If Build is the source type, then the subprocess Create Configuration - Line, Manual is executed, then Ship. If ATO Item is the source type, then Create Supply Order - Line, Manual is executed, then Ship. If Dropship is the source type, then the Purchase Release - Line, Deferred activity is executed, after which the Purchase Release activity is executed. If the order line is manually changed to incomplete or on hold, the Purchase Release - Eligible function will be used, otherwise the Purchase Release activity moves the workflow forward to Ship. Next, the Fulfill - Deferred activity moves the workflow forward to the Fulfill activity.

Line Flow - Generic, Performance Workflow (Continued)

the picture is described in the document text

The Fulfill activity then processes the workflow onto the Invoice Interface function. If the order line is manually changed to incomplete or on hold, the Invoice Interface - Eligible activity will be used, otherwise, the Invoice Interface function moves the workflow to either Wait for Required for Revenue or Delivery (if Partial) or Close (if Not Eligible or Complete). If the order line is manually changed to incomplete or on hold, the Wait function is used to specify a day of the week, specific date, and so on before closing the line. When the order line is complete or not eligible, the workflow moves to Close - Continue Header where the workflow ends.

Negotiation Flow - Generic is contained in the Seeded Data File oexwford.wft and is associated with the OM Negotiation Header item type.

Summary of the Negotiation Flow - Generic Process

To view the properties of the Negotiation Flow - Generic process, select the process in the navigator tree and then select Properties from the Edit menu. This process is runnable, which indicates that it can be assigned to a transaction type. The Details property page of the process activity indicates that the Negotiation Flow - Generic process has an error item type of WFERROR. This item type is associated with the RETRY_ONLY error process. The purpose of this error handling process is to alert an administrator when an error occurs in a process and prompt the administrator to retry the process in error. This error process is initiated only when an unexpected error with Oracle Workflow is encountered in the process.

The Process window displays the activities and subprocesses of the Negotiation Flow - Generic process, which comprise the nodes that appear in the workflow diagram. The following diagram depicts the Negotiation Flow - Generic process.

Negotiation Flow - Generic with Approval

The Negotiation Flow - Generic with Approval process can be assigned to both Sales Orders and Sales Agreements. A Sales Order that starts with the negotiation phase is considered a Quote until it transitions to the Fulfillment phase where it becomes a firm order, or Sales Order in Oracle Order Management. Sales Agreements maintain their same name during both the Negotiation and Fulfillment phases.

Negotiation Flow - Generic with Approval is initiated if it is assigned to the transaction type. Transaction types determine which processes are attached to a Sales Order and Sales Agreements. For more information on defining transaction types, refer to the Oracle Order Management Implementation Manual.

Negotiation Flow - Generic with Approval is associated with the following OM Negotiation Header subprocesses:

OM Blanket Header Processes

The following section discusses the workflows associated with the OM Blanket Header item type.

Blanket Flow - Generic

The Blanket Flow - Generic workflow process is used for the Fulfillment phase of Sales Agreements in Oracle Order Management.

Blanket Flow - Generic is initiated if it is assigned to the transaction type for the Sales Agreement. Transaction types determine which processes are attached to a Sales Agreement. For more information on defining transaction types, refer to the Oracle Order Management Implementation Guide.

Blanket Flow - Generic is associated with the following OM Blanket Header subprocesses:

Blanket Flow - Generic is contained in the Seeded Data File oexford.wft and is associated with the OM Blanket Header item type.

For Sales Agreements, the Fulfillment flow will start either after the Negotiation Flow has completed or, in the case where the Sales Agreement does not have a Negotiation Flow, it will start when you save the Sales Agreement.

Summary of the Blanket Flow - Generic Process

To view the properties of the Blanket Flow - Generic process, select the process in the navigator tree and then select Properties from the Edit menu. This process is runnable, which indicates that it can be assigned to a transaction type.

The Details property page of the process activity indicates that the Blanket Flow - Generic process has an error item type of WFERROR. This item type is associated with the RETRY_ONLY error process. The purpose of this error handling process is to alert an administrator when an error occurs in a process and prompt the administrator to retry the process in error. This error process is initiated only when an unexpected error with Oracle Workflow is encountered in the process.

Defect Process

The Delivery page of Order Information Portal enables you to initiate returns through notifications to the salesperson. You can initiate a return by submitting a Defect Report and this notifies the salesperson to start processing the return. The returns processing can only be done using the Sales Orders window, not the Order Information Portal.

Cost of Goods (COGS) Account Generator Flows

The oexwfcog.wft file contains the COGS Account Generator workflows. There are 2 seeded workflows – Standard Flexfield Workflow and Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account. The Standard Flexfield Workflow consists of generic functions that assist you in generating account numbers, not only COGS Accounts. The Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account flow is described below.

Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account Flow

The Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account consists of 2 processes: Generate Account Using Flexbuilder Rules and Generate Default Account.

Summary of Generate Account Using Flexbuilder Rules

If you have upgraded from previous versions that were using the Flexbuilder tool, you can use the Flexbuilder rules. Please note that you need to perform some upgrade to use the Flexbuilder rules in the Generate Account Using Flexbuilder Rules process.

Summary of Generate Default Account process

Generate Default Account is a seeded process that builds the COGS Account. It retrieves all segments from the COGS Account assigned to the item in the shipping inventory organization. The Chart of Accounts (the accounting structure that defines the number of segments making up an account) calls this process. The Cost Of Goods Sold Account is identified by a CODE_COMBINATION_ID (CCID), having a unique combination of segment values.
