Transportation Planning Details for Shipment Lines

You can integrate Oracle Shipping with a transportation management system.

By doing so, you can:

  • Receive planning details for shipment lines from transportation applications

  • Automatically split shipment lines for partial shipments

  • Allow users to review, delete, and resubmit a shipment request if there are issues

Receive Transportation Details for Shipment Lines

You can receive the transportation planning details using the batch method of the Shipment Request public web service.

These details include transportation shipment, transportation shipment line, initial destination, shipping method, and scheduled ship date. You manage transportation planning details for shipment lines using the Manage Shipment Lines page in the Inventory Management work area in the Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management offering.

Shipping can receive one transportation shipment at a time. You must split shipment lines if you plan to ship partially on a transportation shipment. You can review any errors and resubmit the shipment request using the Manage Shipment Message Interface task in the Inventory Management work area in the Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management offering.

Shipping Support for Transportation Systems

With Shipping support for transportation shipments, you can:

  • Group one or more shipments into a single transportation shipment.

When you combine one or more shipments into a single transportation shipment, you can progress the shipment lines for customers independent of each other, even though the lines belong to the same transportation shipment. Shipping communicates the shipment information to the transportation management system in an incremental fashion, that is, one shipment at a time.

  • Enable pick release of all shipment lines for a transportation shipment or initial leg destination location.

  • Support planned and unplanned lines within a single organization, however, Oracle Fusion Cloud Order Management decides which lines require planning.

  • Enable manual updates to transportation attributes on the lines by way of the Manage Shipment Lines page in the Inventory Management work area.

You manage shipping details for transportation shipments using the Create Pick Wave page in the Inventory Management work area.
