Oracle Applications That Support Back-to-Back Fulfillment

There are several Oracle Fusion Cloud applications that support back-to-back fulfillment, however, some additional setup is required.

The following table lists those applications, a brief description of their importance in back-to-back fulfillment, and when you must perform additional setup for the applications. The supply flow columns indicate which applications support which flows, and the comments describe at a high-level the product-specific back-to-back setup that's required for the flows to work. For setup instructions, see Setting Up Back-to-Back Fulfillment: Roadmap.
