Advance Shipment Notice Outbound Message

You can send an outbound shipment notice to you partners to notify them when shipping occurs and provide details about the shipment using the advance ship notice message.

There's a document property that you can configure for the Advance Ship Notice document:

  • Sender Email: You can use this property to specify the sender's email address for all outbound B2B advance ship notice messages. If you don't enter an email address for this property, the default of the application-generated one is used.

For details on sending shipments, refer to the Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Using Shipping guide and the Send Shipment Advice scheduled process.

By default, the advance ship notice outbound message definitions use information from the SOAP service Shipment Service V2.

If you require additional attributes to be included in your outbound advance ship notice message that aren't available in the SOAP service, you can enable the feature Include User-Defined Shipment Attributes in Outbound Shipment Notification Messages Using a REST Resource to access all the attributes that are available in the Shipments REST resource.

Here are the steps that you need to follow to add additional attributes that are not available in the SOAP service to your outbound ship notices.
  1. In Setup and Maintenance, enable the feature Include User-Defined Shipment Attributes in Outbound Shipment Notification Messages Using a REST Resource.
  2. These two predefined advance ship notice message definitions have been updated to include a mapping file which includes all attributes that are available in the Shipments REST resource:
    • OAGIS_10.1_PROCESS_SHIPMENT_OUT_V2
    • OAGIS_10.1_PROCESS_SHIPMENT_COLLAB_MSG_OUT_V2

    Select one of these shipment message definition and select Export Transformation Package. The transformation package has four folders: mappingFile, payloadTemplate, xsd, and xsl.

  3. In the mappingFile folder, open the mapping file and find the name of the attribute you want to add to your message.
  4. Edit the XSL file to include the additional attributes.
  5. Duplicate the predefined advance ship notice message, enter a name, and upload your modified XSL file and mapping file.
  6. Replace your existing shipment message definition with the newly duplicated one for your trading partners or service providers.
