Group Transfer Orders Using Source and Destination Organizations

Use this feature to specify how you want Oracle Supply Chain Orchestration to group the transfer order requests that it sends to Oracle Inventory Management to create transfer orders.

If you:

  • Don't enable this feature, and if Supply Chain Orchestration receives a transfer supply request that contains SOURCE_DESTINATION in the GROUP_CODE attribute, then it will group requests according to the source and destination organizations.
  • Enable this feature, then Supply Chain Orchestration will group transfer requests according to whatever value it receives in the GROUP_CODE attribute. If that value is empty or the attribute is missing, then Supply Chain Orchestration will use SOURCE_DESTINATION.

Improve efficiency. Get more flexibility in how you group your transfer orders.
