Overview of Splitting Order Lines

Order lines are split in Oracle Backlog Management based on a specific date or organizations to fulfill partial or total demand of customers. Such splits improve the on-time demand satisfaction and reduce average lateness of the order.

Split based on date is beneficial for customers prioritizing quick turnaround and for whom receiving minimum quantity is critical.

Split based on organization is supported only when the total supply is available across two or more organizations to plan the order line on the requested date.

An order line can be split only if the Allow Splits column is set to Yes for the order line on the Backlog Analysis page. This field can’t be set in the Backlog Management work area and has to be set in Oracle Fusion Cloud Order Management. If you create the sales order in external order management, then the order line is split only when you set the Allow Splits attribute on the order line as Yes in the sales order FBDI file (ScpSalesOrderImportTemplate.xlsm).
