Here's a figure illustrating the Portugal shipping flow.

Portugal Shipping Flow

Explanation of callouts:

  1. The Portugal shipment flow begins with the confirmation of a shipment.

  2. All Portugal documents must have an autogenerated e-signature, which is a unique value. The values for creating an e-signature are confirm date, invoice number, gross amount, and previous signature. This e-signature is available by associating these roles: ORA_WSH_PORTUGAL_SHIPMENT_PROCESSING_DUTY and ORA_WSH_PORTUGAL_SHIPMENT_PROCESSING_DUTY_OBI. Assign users to the configured roles to enable Portugal organizations with an e-signature.
    Note:
    1. You can enable e-signature by following these steps:
      1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, open the Tasks panel tab and search for Manage Shipping Parameters.
      2. On the Manage Shipping Parameters page, select the Autogenerate e-signature on shipping documents check box.

      3. Click Save and Close.

    2. You can exclude order types of your choice from the signature process during the generation of shipping documents.
      • Use ORA_WSH_ORDR_TYP_EXCL_PS_SIGN lookup to exclude the packing slip from the signature process.
      • Use ORA_WSH_ORDR_TYP_EXCL_BOL_SIGN lookup to exclude the bill of lading from the signature process.
      • Use ORA_WSH_ORDR_TYP_EXCL_CI_SIGN lookup to exclude the commercial invoice from the signature process.
      • Use these order type values for the Lookup Code field in the lookup: DROP_SHIP, OUTSIDE_PROCESSING, RETURN_TO_VENDOR, RMA, SALES_ORDER, TRANSFER_ORDER, TRANSFER_ORDER_RETURN, UNREFERENCED_SUPPLIER_RETURN.
  3. The system determines the job set rules and output preferences.

  4. Generate and print shipping document using the job set and output preferences.

    • The Job Set Oracle Enterprise Scheduler Service (ESS) job uses one of these options: Ship Confirm Documents for Portugal in Training Mode or Ship Confirm Documents for Portugal in Production Mode.

    • Four versions of the report are printed: Original, Duplicate, Triplicate, and Reprint. There's no difference between the report versions, except for the header.

  5. Attach the Reprint version of the generated shipping documents to the shipment.

  6. Submit shipment to Inventory and Order Management.
