How You Transfer Project-Specific Inventory

Transfer project-specific inventory is part of the Project-Driven Supply Chain solution which is an end-to-end, integrated solution across Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain and Project Management applications. It supports business processes to transfer project-specific material to another inventory organization, or within an inventory organization. It lets you automate the transfer of project-specific materials for multiple projects and carry forward project attributes throughout the entire transfer.

Here's the high-level process flow to transfer project-specific inventory:

1. The process starts with the creation of a transfer order with project details based on one of these cases:

   • A requisition from Self-Service Procurement

   • A supply request from Supply Chain Orchestration

   • A transfer planned order from Supply Planning

2. Then, transfer order lines create shipment lines, which are pick released and pick confirmed.

3. Depending on the item definition, the shipment of material comes from either project inventory or common inventory.

4. Once the shipment is confirmed, the application transfers the shipment transactions with associated project details to Costing.

5. Costing creates the cost accounting distributions and you can review the project details for accounting distributions.

6. You can import costed and accounted transactions from supply chain into Project Portfolio Management.

7. If the cost incurred against the project is a billable cost, you can bill the customer based on the percentage of completion or milestones achieved on the project. If it's a capitalizable cost, you can execute the capitalization flow. If needed, you can allocate costs to other projects, project tasks, or accounts as appropriate.
