Predefined Integration Mappings for Parcel Manifest Flow

We are now supporting pre-built integration between Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud (WMS) and Oracle Transportation Management (OTM) for planned parcel shipments.

For parcels, upon closing a manifest, WMS generates a parcel shipment number (for each unique zip code) and OTM creates a unique planned parcel shipment number for each distinct destination. So, the generated parcel shipment number (actual shipment) may contain multiple planned parcel shipment numbers at the detail level.

With this new pre-built integration, OTM can send the planned parcel shipments to WMS. Upon shipping, WMS will send actual shipment information, including planned parcel shipment details, back to OTM, ensuring accurate closure of shipments.

For more details on the actual shipment mappings, refer to the Sample Integration Between Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud and Oracle Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud.

To support this integration, we have added two new fields “carrier_type” and “std_carrier_service_code” to the Planned Parcel Shipment JSON payload. Now, you can send carrier_code, carrier_type, and std_carrier_service_code.

NOTE:

• You must send either ship_via_code or (carrier_code, carrier_type, and std_carrier_service_code) from OTM to successfully plan an order detail with a planned parcel shipment in WMS. If you send all these fields, the system considers ship_via_code as the priority, as long as the ship via and the carrier code matches.
• If the combination of carrier_code, carrier_type, and std_carrier_service_code fields doesn’t match with an existing ship via or has multiple ship vias in WMS, the system fails the Planned Parcel Shipment interface with an error.
• For Delete action, the fields ship_via_code, carrier_code, carrier_type, or std_carrier_service_code are not mandatory to send. You can send a planned parcel shipment number in the payload to delete the planned parcel shipment number. But, for Create/Update action, you must send either ship_via_code or (carrier_code, carrier_type, and std_carrier_service_code).
