Considerations for Integrating Shipping with Transportation and Trade Management Systems

The following are points to consider when integrating Oracle Shipping with transportation management or trade management systems.

  • Integrations are available for any third-party solutions, however, Shipping is designed to work together with Oracle Fusion Cloud Transportation Management and Oracle Fusion Cloud Global Trade Management.

  • Visibility is not available within Shipping to determine if shipment lines were previously screened in Oracle Fusion Cloud Order Management.

  • Shipment lines can't be shipped using Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management for organizations controlled by external systems, such as third-party logistics (3PL) applications or warehouse management systems (WMS). Contract manufacturing is the exception.

  • Shipment lines related to outside processing, transfer orders, and return to supplier that you create directly in Shipping can be integrated with Oracle Global Trade Management but not with Oracle Transportation Management.

  • Printing of shipping documents is performed using the transportation management system.

  • Printing of commercial invoices is performed using the trade management system.
