Example of a PAR Replenishment Interorganization Internal Material Transfer

An interorganization internal material transfer represents a transfer of material from a source inventory organization to a destination inventory organization. You perform this type of transfer to replenish material from one inventory organization to another.

For example, the source inventory organization may represent a main storage facility used to replenish the various PAR locations. When the PAR location needs material, you replenish the material from the main storage facility.

You must complete the necessary setups at the subinventory and item subinventory levels. Additionally, you can create a location and associate it with the PAR subinventory. You must also set up the interorganization parameters. After running the replenishment process, you can review the supply order details and transfer order. Then, you can review the shipment lines, ship confirm, receive the transfer order, and put away the receipt line.

Scenario

This example of a PAR replenishment interorganization internal material transfer covers these steps:

• Define location

• Create subinventory

• Associate item to a subinventory

• Set up interorganization parameters

• Run Replenish Inventory Request REST service

• Process Supply Chain Orchestration Interface process

• Review supply order details

• Mange transfer orders

• Manage shipment lines

• Ship confirm

• Receive expected shipments

• Put away lines

This table describes each step in the example for a PAR replenishment interorganization internal material transfer.

Step	Description
Define location	First, define the location to serve as your final deliver-to location when performing the deliver or put away transaction. Use an address naming convention that allows receiving personnel to route the material to the appropriate replenishment location. Use the Manage Locations page to set up the location. Next, configure the subinventory to serves as the PAR location you intend to replenish. You must enable the PAR Location check box for the subinventory. Also, specify the Replenishment Count Method and Default Replenishment Count Type. You can also associate a location to the subinventory. Optionally, you can create a subinventory group. A subinventory group is a grouping of subinventories that you can use to process PAR replenishment requests. For example, you can define a subinventory group consisting of five individual subinventories. You can then create a replenishment request for all five subinventories instead of creating individual replenishment requests for each subinventory.
Create subinventory	In this example, let's set up the subinventory as non-quantity tracked subinventory. In order to configure a subinventory as non-quantity tracked, set the Material Status field to Active: Not Available for Netting, ATP, and Reservations. Once the material status is set, you can deselect the Quantity Tracked check box. In order to configure the subinventory as a PAR location, you must select the PAR location check box. By configuring the subinventory as a PAR location, you can now select the Replenishment Count Method and Default Replenishment Count Type. Last, assign a location to the subinventory. This location represents the final deliver-to location when you put away the material receipt into inventory.
Associate item to a subinventory	In this example, the source type is Organization, indicating that you're replenishing the item subinventory from another inventory organization. The Organization field is mandatory when the source type is organization. For our example, specify the source organization as Boston Manufacturing. Additionally, you can also specify a sourcing subinventory if required.
Set up interorganization parameters	You must establish interorganization parameters prior to performing an interorganization internal material transfer. Interorganization parameters define the relationship between the source inventory organization and the destination inventory organization. The parameters specify the transfer type and receipt routing.
Run Replenish Inventory Request REST service	The Replenish Inventory Request REST service manages replenishment requests. When the REST request processes successfully, the return message text indicates the following: M1 Supply Request Batch Number: PAR12001. The process has successfully completed. When submitting the Replenish Inventory Request REST service, you have the option to specify Yes or No for the Submit for Processing parameter. Selecting Yes indicates that the service submits the replenishment request immediately for processing. Selecting No indicates that the service doesn't submit the replenishment request immediately for processing. For those replenishment requests that aren't submitted immediately, you can use the Create Inventory Replenishment Request scheduled process to create inventory replenishment requests. The Create Inventory Replenishment Request process supports these submission parameters: Organization Item Subinventory Subinventory group When the replenishment request is for a requisition, the Replenish Inventory Request REST service creates a supply request batch number. The supply request batch number always has a prefix with PAR for PAR generated replenishment requests. You can use the supply request batch number when submitting the Process Supply Chain Orchestration Interface process.
Process Supply Chain Orchestration Interface process	The Process Supply Chain Orchestration Interface scheduled process creates supply orders based on the Supply Chain Orchestration interface records. To process these records, you can enter the scheduled process parameters and submit the request. Let's use these values for our process parameters: Supply Request System: Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management Organization: Enter the inventory organization that generated the PAR replenishment request From Supply Request Batch Number: The batch number will always start with PAR. For example, PAR12001 To Supply Request Batch Number: Enter the ending batch number for a range or supply request batch numbers From Supply Request Date: Starting supply request date To Supply Request Date: Ending supply request date
Review supply order details	When the Process Supply Chain Orchestration Interface completes successfully, you can review the supply order details by navigating to the Manage Supply Lines task. Search by the supply request reference number to review the supply lines. The supply request reference number has a prefix of PAR such as in the example PAR12001. When reviewing the supply order details, you can review the supply lines associated with the supply order. When you click on a supply line, you can review the line details. Navigate to the Execution Documents tab to view the purchase requisition number created for the replenishment request.
Mange transfer orders	You can view the transfer order by navigating to Manage Transfer Orders task.
Manage shipment lines	You can use the transfer order number displayed in the supply order details to search for the shipment in inventory management. You can navigate to the Manage Shipment Lines task to view the shipment line details. In order to view the shipment lines, you must login as a user with data access to the source inventory organization.
Ship confirm	Proceed with the ship confirm process.
Receive expected shipments	The next step in the process is to receive the material at the destination inventory organization.
Put away lines	Depending on the configured receiving process, a put away transaction may be required to deliver the material to the final inventory destination. In this case, you must perform a two-step receipt and complete the put away or delivery transaction to the PAR subinventory. Once you submit the transaction, a confirmation message displays indicating that the receiving created the put away transaction.
