Redwood: Create Purchase Orders and Work Orders Using Supply Chain Orchestration

Use the New Supply Request page in the Supply Chain Orchestration work area to create purchase orders and work orders. You can create a:

  • Buy request, then send it to Oracle Procurement to create a purchase requisition or a purchase order.
  • Make request, then send it to Oracle Manufacturing to create a work order.

Before update 25D, you could only create a transfer request. Now you can create a buy or make request too. Go to Home Page > Supply Chain Execution > Supply Chain Orchestration > Supply Requests, click New Supply Request. then specify the request:

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Select Buy or Make, then the work area will display a page that has the attributes you need to finish the request:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Select the Item, Destination Organization, Requested Delivery Date, and Requested Quantity. Supply Chain Orchestration will get the optimal supplier from Global Order Promising according to its sourcing rules, then display the results:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Click Recommended Supply Sources to view all of the supply sources that are available. . .

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

. . .then select one:

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

If your item isn't planned, then Supply Chain Orchestration won't automatically recommend a supply source. You can manually select a supplier and supplier site:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Need to make instead of buy? Select Make:

xxxxxxxxx

The work area will set the source organization to the destination organization by default because the factory will build the item in the same organization.

Tips And Considerations

If you set the Supply Type attribute to Transfer, and if your item:

  • Is planned. Supply Chain Orchestration will get the optimal supply source from Global Order Promising according to the item's sourcing rules.
  • Isn’t planned. Supply Chain Orchestration won't get sources from Promising but will instead get them from your interorganization setup. See Enable Interorganization Transfers. You can also manually select the supply source in the Source Organization attribute.
