Examples of Receiving and Putting Away Outside Processing Purchase Order Lines

Receipt and Put Away of Outside Processing Purchase Order Lines with a Shop Floor Destination

In this scenario, an operator within Oracle Fusion Cloud Manufacturing generates a work order to manufacture an assembly item with multiple operations, and one of the operations is a supplier operation.

The prerequisites before processing the work order are:

Oracle Supply Chain Orchestration creates a purchase requisition for the required outside processing of the work order's supplier operation
Oracle Purchasing approves the requisition and generates a standard purchase order for outside processing of the partially finished assembly for the work order
The work order progresses to complete the first operation for the full quantity.
Manufacturing calls on the supply chain orchestration process to enable the shipping of the partially finished assembly by creating shipment requests. The supply chain orchestration process also communicates the shipment request details, including the work order details and the purchase order details to Oracle Shipping.
A shipping user confirms the shipment of the partially finished assembly to the outside processing supplier within Shipping.

When the outside processing service is completed by the supplier, the supplier sends the goods back to the original manufacturer. After reviewing the documents that accompany the goods, your receiving agent notices the items have arrived with partially finished assembly. Using the purchase order to query the expected shipment lines on the Receive Expected Shipment Lines page, the receiving agent identifies the work order-related purchase order line and initiates receipt of the goods against that line. Quantity and other details are entered to complete the receipt of the line. The receiving agent then initiates the put away of the purchase order line.

Subsequently, the purchase order line is recognized as outside processing with a shop floor destination. The subinventory and locator attributes are automatically disabled because they aren't relevant to outside processing lines. A call is sent to the Manufacturing application programming interface to deliver the material to the work order.

The work order is now searchable within Manufacturing to verify the supplier operation has completed. For more information about work orders, see the Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM: Using Manufacturing guide.

Direct Receipt of Purchase Order Lines with a Shop Floor Destination

In this example, the criteria is the same as the first scenario above except that Procurement generates an outside processing purchase order of the partially finished assembly for the work order with a direct routing.

Disallow Return of Delivered Purchase Order Lines with a Shop Floor Destination

In this example, the criteria is the same as the first scenario above except that the partially finished assembly has already been received against the purchase order and delivered to the work order. The warehouse manager or receiving agent notices that the delivered outside processing lines aren't available in the results. No results appear because the delivered outside processing lines aren't eligible for returns within Oracle Receiving. You must initiate returns on goods delivered for outside processing within Manufacturing.

Disallow Correction of Delivered Purchase Order Lines with a Shop Floor Destination

In this example, the criteria is the same as the first scenario above except that the partially finished assembly has already been received against the purchase order and delivered to the work order. The warehouse manager or receiving agent notices that the delivered outside processing lines aren't available in the results. No results appear because the delivered outside processing lines aren't eligible for corrections from within Receiving. You must initiate corrections on goods delivered for outside processing from within Manufacturing.
