Orchestrate Purchase Orders
Supply Chain Orchestration uses a buy flow to create a purchase order, which is a document that starts a purchase process.
Here's how it works.
-
Supply Chain Orchestration receives a supply request from Order Management, Planning, or Inventory.
-
Decomposition processes the request.
-
Orchestration creates a supply order.
-
A fulfillment task creates a request to create the purchase order.
-
The interface sends the supply request to Oracle Procurement.
-
Procurement creates the purchase order.
-
A purchasing task tracks the purchase order.
-
The Overview page in the Supply Orchestration work area displays any exceptions that happen.
Orchestration can manage change that happens during a back-to-back buy flow.
-
Create, update, or cancel a purchase order in Oracle Procurement according to a request from Order Management, Planning, or Inventory.
-
Record and respond to business events in Procurement that happen because of changes that happen to supply. Orchestration might reply with a create or cancel. It might also reply with a request to split the purchase order, split purchase order lines, or split the schedule for a purchase order line.
