How You Publish Supply Order Details

One of the important aspects of collaborating with suppliers is to provide them an insight into the open supply orders. Collaborating with suppliers on open supply orders enables you and your suppliers to plan supply chain activities more efficiently.

Supply orders are of four types: purchase order, purchase requisition, shipment in receiving, and in-transit shipment.

You can publish supply orders along with planned orders to Oracle Supply Chain Collaboration using the Publish Order Forecast scheduled process. Use the Navigator to access the Scheduled Processes page where you can select the Publish Order Forecast scheduled process. In the Process Details dialog box for the Publish Order Forecast scheduled process, you can select the following check boxes:

• Include purchase orders in order forecast: Includes purchase orders within the order forecast. All the open purchase orders for an item on a day are added to the planned orders on that day and published as order forecast at the supplier or supplier site level.

• Include requisitions in order forecast: Includes purchase requisitions within the order forecast. All the open purchase requisitions for an item on a day are added to the planned orders on that day and published as order forecast at the supplier or supplier site level.

• Run the Supply Planning Collaboration Decomposition job: Runs the Supply Planning Collaboration Decomposition scheduled process along with the Publish Order Forecast scheduled process.

• Publish order details: Publishes all four types of supply orders along with the planned orders.
