How You Set Up Shipping for Drop Ship Transactions

Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications support drop shipments. Drop ship is an order fulfillment strategy where the seller doesn't keep products in inventory, but relies on suppliers to build, store, and ship orders to customers. Material flows directly from the supplier to the customer.

You can select whether or not you want to print shipping documents for drop ship orders. To print shipping documents for these transactions, do the following:

  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the following:

    • Offering: Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management

    • Functional Area: Receiving

    • Task: Manage Receiving Parameters

  2. Select your organization.

  3. On the Manage Receiving Parameters page, select the Print shipping documents for drop ship orders option.

This option is a one-time setup step for your organization. You don't need to set this up per transaction.
