Configure Business Rules for Notifications

There are two workflows for which you can configure business rules for notifications.

Those two workflows are:

• Count and disposal tasks workflow
• Bypass count and disposal tasks workflow

In the Count and Disposal tasks workflow, to perform recall count, quarantine the affected goods, and perform disposition transactions, you must configure business rules to send FYI notifications to other stakeholders informing them about the containment tasks to be completed.

By default, a rule exists in the application that sends notifications to the requesters of the recalled parts that are identified in the expense locations. But for perpetual and par locations, business rules must be configured to send the notifications.

To configure the business rules:

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, in the Manage Task Configurations for Supply Chain Management task, search for the ProductRecallTraceabilityFyi human task:

   • Offering: Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management
   • Functional Area: Facilities
   • Task: Manage Task Configuration for Supply Chain Management
   • Search for the ProductRecallTraceabilityFyi human task

2. Configure business rules using these attributes:

   • recallTaskCode with attribute values: ORA_COUNT, ORA_DELIVER, ORA_INSTRUCTIONS, ORA_DISPOSAL, and ORA_DEBIT_MEMO.

   • inventoryOrganizationCode

   • deliverToLocationCode

   • deliverToLocationName

   • subinventory

   • productTraceStatusCode with attribute values: ORA_PAR, ORA_IN_STOCK, ORA_EXPENSE, and ORA_INBOUND

   • requesterName

   • purchasingCategory

In the Bypass count and disposal tasks workflow, that is, when you have enabled the Bypass Count and Disposal Tasks attribute in Recall Parameters to complete the recall containment tasks by directly entering a reason code, without having to do the recall counts and disposition transactions, you must configure business rules to send FYI notifications to other stakeholders informing them about the containment tasks to be completed.

To configure the business rules:

1. In the Set up and Maintenance work area, use the Manage Task Configuration for Supply Chain Management task:
   • Offering: Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management
   • Functional Area: Facilities
   • Task: Manage Task Configuration for Supply Chain Management
   • Search for the ProductRecallBypassTasksFYI human task
2. Define the FYI notification rules using these attributes:
   • Inventory Organization
   • Location
   • Cost Centre
   • Subinventory
   • Material Status

You can optionally configure the approval groups and use those groups in a business rule to send notifications to a group of stakeholders.
