Set Up Default Item Organization

You must set up a default item organization for Oracle SCM Item Sync. You can integrate with Oracle SCM by implicitly creating a Product Information Management item for every product offering created in Launch Experience.

To set up a default item sync to Oracle SCM, you must perform the two following steps:

  1. Set Up Item Organization in Oracle SCM

  2. Configure Item Organization for Default Item Creation

Here's how you can do it.

Step 1: Set Up Item Organization in Oracle SCM

You must be a user with the Application Implementation Consultant role to be able to view and perform the list of tasks required to set up the item organization.

  8. Click Save and Close.
