Manage Inbound Shipments and PO Schedules

Whenever you either do a put away transaction or do a positive correction of the quantity while receiving the items, if the received items, lot, or serial has an open recall notice, a count task is automatically created and the status of such items changes to Count Task Generated.

Also, a trace detail record gets created with location details of where the items are put away. Based on these trace details, user completes the counting task. The recalled parts are quarantined and disposed.

Here are the different resolution statuses that the inbound trace records for a recalled item can be in:
Status Description
Recall Exempted

When you mark an item as exempt from a recall.

For example, when there is a recall notice for items, but only some of them were received. For the remaining items that are not shipped yet, if the supplier affirms that only non-defective items will be further shipped, you can then mark them as recall exempt.
Recall Auto Exempted When you do a put away transaction for a lot or serial that doesn’t have an open recall notice, but the item has an open inbound trace detail.
Replaced When the buyer does mass replacement of item on a PO line that has been identified as inbound in the recall trace details.
Count Task Generated When a count task is created for a put away transaction done against the ASN or PO line that has been identified as inbound in the recall trace details.
Auto Closed When a deliver task is manually completed, without taking any action.
For example:
  • When the PO line that has been identified as inbound in the recall trace details is manually cancelled or
  • The in-transit shipment is cancelled.

Once all the inbound trace records generated by the Locate Recalled Parts process get resolved either by doing a put away, or by mass replacement on purchase orders, or by recall exemption, the deliver task to which these inbound trace records are associated will automatically get completed.

Note: Schedule the Generate Recall Count Tasks for Missing Receiving Events schedule process to run soon after the put away is done. This ensures that the count tasks are generated for all the put away transactions performed for the items on recall. See the Generate Recall Count Tasks for Missing Receiving Events topic in the Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Scheduled Processes for SCM guide for more information.
