Set Shipment Priorities for Transfer Orders

Use the Supply Request REST API to set the shipment priority on a transfer order line.

Here's how it works.

  1. Oracle Applications come predefined to use values in the WSH_SHIPPING_PRIORITY lookup type for the shipping priority, such as Low, Medium, and High.
  2. You use the Supply Request REST API to create or update the transfer order. Make sure you reference the value in the Lookup Code attribute from the Manage Shipping Lookups page in your REST API payload for the Shipment Priority.
  3. Supply Chain Orchestration sends the shipment priority that you specify in REST API to Oracle Inventory Management, and Inventory Management sets the shipment priority on the transfer order line. Your warehouse manager can use the priority to prioritize shipping for the transfer order.
Here's an example payload.
{
  "InterfaceSourceCode": "EXT",
  "InterfaceBatchNumber": "ss_rest_211215011",
  "SupplyRequestStatus": "NEW",
  "SupplyRequestDate": "2021-12-22T11:00:03.503-08:00",
  "SupplyOrderSource": "EXT",
  "SupplyOrderReferenceNumber": "211215011",
  "SupplyOrderReferenceId": 1,
  "ProcessRequestFlag": "Y",
  "supplyRequestLines": [
    {
      "InterfaceBatchNumber": "ss_rest_211215011",
      "InterfaceSourceCode": "EXT",
      "SupplyOrderSource": "EXT",
      "SupplyOrderReferenceLineNumber": "1",
      "SupplyOrderReferenceLineId": 12112150511,

    }
  ]
}

Create Your Own Shipment Priority

  1. Go to the Setup and Maintenance work area, then go to the task.
    • Offering: Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management
    • Task: Manage Shipping Lookups
  2. On the Manage Shipping Lookups page, examine the lookup codes. You can reference them in your payload. If you don't see what you need, click Actions > New in the Lookup Codes area, then add new ones.
