Project Manufacturing Command Center

Project Manufacturing Command Center Overview

The Oracle Project Manufacturing Command Center enables users to achieve better project supply chain and manufacturing execution outcomes. You can search for manufacturing projects and gain full visibility into manufacturing work orders, sales orders, inventory on-hands, and procurement activities through key metrics, charts, graphs, and tables. Based on your role, the Project Manufacturing Command Center enables you to:

Before you load data from Oracle E-Business Suite into the Project Manufacturing Command Center, ensure that your EBS data is accurate and current.

The following Project Manufacturing Command Center dashboards enable search functions using Enterprise Command Center integration:

Note: You can use the Project Manufacturing Command Center only after the installation and common configurations are completed as described in My Oracle Support Knowledge Document 2495053.1, Installing Oracle Enterprise Command Center Framework, Release 12.2. For additional ECC Overview information, see Overview of Oracle Enterprise Command Center Framework, Oracle E-Business Suite User's Guide.

Searching Enterprise Command Center Dashboards

Use the dashboard sidebars to refine (filter) the data on each dashboard. You can select a value or record from the Available Refinements component, or use Search to find a keyword, a value, or a specific record. The type-ahead feature suggests matches for your entry that correspond to the available refinements. When you submit a search, the search term is added to the Selected Refinements list, and the dashboard data is refined to include only records that match the search. You can add multiple refinements and remove any of them at any time.

Use an asterisk (*) or percent sign (%) to perform a partial keyword or record search that matches any string of zero or more characters. You can also use a question mark (?) to perform a partial search that matches any single character.

Additional Information: For more information about searching for and refining data in enterprise command centers, see Search in Highlights of an Enterprise Command Center, Oracle E-Business Suite User's Guide.

Overview Dashboard

Genealogy and Trace Dashboard

As a project manager you can use the Genealogy & Trace dashboard for detailed traceability into project manufacturing activities. For example, to analyze the causes of any project exceptions, you can search for a purchase order and view the Project Manufacturing Execution Genealogy diagram to trace forward or backward to identify the cause of the exception and review any component shortages, or shipment delays. Similarly, to analyze customer returns due to product issues, you can trace the assembly, serial unit, or component used in production and view the component materials, work order, and shipping details. Some of the network nodes alert you to issues such as schedule exceptions for a work order or if a purchase order is on hold. You can also navigate to the existing project manufacturing dashboards and other application pages from the Genealogy & Trace dashboard. Use this dashboard to:
