Ongoing Integration of Cost Changes and Freight Charges

In this use case your goal is to perform a manual or partially manual extraction of data from source systems to maintain cost changes and freight charges on an ongoing basis.

Description Integration Type Integration Options Notes
Cost Adjustments are used for adjusting costs after the normal cost processing has been completed. Some use cases include:
  • Fine tuning the cost if the estimates coming through receipts or elsewhere aren't fully know at the time of initial processing.
  • Processing rebates.
  • Tracking additional costs to items instead of using standard features such as work order-based costs or overheads.

Usually, this scenario demands:

  • Manual or partially manual extraction of data from source systems.
  • Frequent inflow of data.
  • Data transformation.
  • Mass update of data existing in Oracle Cost Management.
Inbound REST APIs (Cost Adjustments) -

Landed Costs are additional costs incurred in the acquisition of items so that a more accurate cost is reflected for items during cost processing. If the volume of purchase orders, freight, or additional invoices is high, then it's typical to use REST APIs to import the landed cost charges in bulk and then do the cost processing and cost distributions.

Usually, this scenario demands:

  • Manual or partially manual extraction of data from source systems.
  • Frequent inflow of data.
  • Data transformation.
  • Mass update of data existing in Oracle Cost Management.
