Guidelines for Creating Mass Transactions
Use Oracle Assets interface tables to populate transaction information for a large volume of assets, and submit a process to post these transactions to the respective assets.
You can also use the interface tables to integrate with an external source system to receive and process the asset changes from external applications.
You can create the following types of mass transactions:
-
Mass adjustments
-
Mass retirements and reinstatements
-
Mass transfers
Mass Adjustments
Perform mass adjustments for the following types of transactions:
