Release Plan Recommendations to an External Execution System

You can release plan recommendations or planned orders from Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Applications to an external execution system. When you release a planned order, the planning process generates a CSV file for the planned order.

The planning process attaches the generated CSV file to the scheduled process called Release Planning Recommendations: Release to External Source Systems. You can download the CSV file from the scheduled processes. The planning process also saves the CSV file in a .zip file format in the Universal Content Manager. The name of the .zip file is ReleasetoExternal.zip.

Prerequisite

Before you can release planned orders from Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Applications to an external execution system, you must do the following:

1. Assign your organization as an external source system.

2. Run collections from the external source system.

After you successfully run collections, you can plan your orders and release them to the external source system. The release process is same for an Oracle Fusion source system and an external source system.

Release Planned Orders

Follow these steps to release the planned orders:

1. From your Supply Chain Planning work area, click the Tasks panel.

2. Click Manage Plans and then search your plan.

3. Open the plan, mark the orders for release, and then click Actions > Release.

The planning process exports the plan in the CSV format and attaches the CSV file to the scheduled process. Also, the planning process saves the CSV file in a .zip file format in the Universal Content Manager. You can download the .zip file from the File Import and Export link in the Navigator.
