Impact on 3PL and WMS Integration with Shipping

Third-party logistics (3PL) applications and warehouse management systems (WMS) enable integration to transportation and trade management systems directly.

When integrating Oracle Shipping with a 3PL application or WMS, Shipping does not communicate with transportation and trade management systems directly. Shipping facilitates the external applications to perform the necessary integrations by:

  • Communicating fulfillment, transportation planning, and compliance requirement-related attributes to the external system

  • Using the shipment information regardless of the planning and compliance statuses
