Publish Order Forecast
The Publish Order Forecast enterprise scheduled process is used to publish order forecast data. The Publish Order Forecast scheduled process supports both managed and B2B Only collaborations.
Every time a data is published from Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Planning to Oracle Supply Chain Collaboration, the Publish Order Forecast schedule process is run automatically. This sends the update of the published data to all the B2B enabled suppliers and contract manufacturers. If the Schedule B2B publish process from the Publish B2B Outbound Messages for Order Forecasts scheduled process option is set to Yes in the Manage Supply Chain Collaboration Settings page, the Publish Order Forecast process has to be run manually.
The Publish Order Forecast scheduled process filters the supply plan data by:
-
Supply plan, which is the selected plan. If the scheduled process is called from a plan context, the plan name is defaulted to the current plan and isn't editable.
-
Organization for supply planning
-
Planner, which is the Supply Demand Planner ID
-
Category
-
Item, which is the enterprise item ID
-
Supplier
-
Supplier site, which are the sites for the selected supplier
The Publish Order Forecast scheduled process stores the supply plan data in the Supply Chain Collaboration interface tables.
When publishing order forecasts, if you include purchase orders, requisitions, or transfer orders, these quantities are combined with the planned order quantity to form the current forecast.
To configure the Publish Order Forecast scheduled process, select the following parameters:
-
Include purchase orders in the order forecast: To include the planned order quantity and the purchase order quantities in your current order forecast quantity.
-
Include requisitions in the order forecast: To include the planned order quantity and the requisition quantities in your current order forecast quantity.
-
Run the Supply Collaboration Decomposition job: To run the Supply Collaboration Decomposition scheduled process immediately after the order forecast is published.
-
Publish order details: To display the open purchase orders, purchase requisitions, in-transit shipments, and shipments in receiving as separate measures along with the current order forecast.
