Reason Codes

This page is accessed via Business Process Automation > Power Data > Status > Reason Codes.

Reason Codes describe why a particular event or action occurred. For example, an event may state that the shipment is delayed and the reason code states that the shipment was delayed because of bad weather.

Reason Codes also explain why a particular action was performed. If Oracle Transportation Management is configured for you to record reasons for performing an action, you are prompted to enter a reason code manually or via a quick code.

Oracle Transportation Management ships with codes set to match EDI-214 standard codes in the PUBLIC domain.
