Perform Pick Transactions from External Systems

Use the Perform Pick Transactions from External Systems scheduled process to execute picking in Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management based on pick transactions from external systems.

When pick transactions are performed in an external source system or in your warehouse management system, you can play out the corresponding transactions in Oracle Inventory Management based on the pick transactions data sent by using either the Interfaced Pick Transactions REST or Interfaced Pick Transactions file-based data import (FBDI) from the external source system. You can run the Perform Pick Transactions from External Systems scheduled process to perform the transactions in Oracle Inventory Management. This scheduled process processes the imported interfaced pick transactions in the interface tables.

When to Use

Run the Perform Pick Transactions from External Systems scheduled process to process the pick transactions in Oracle Inventory Management based on the details provided by the external source system.
