Order Creation: Workflow

Agent Actions

ORDER BASE – INSERT

The ORDER BASE – INSERT agent action is intended to be used in agents that listen for an order base to be created by XML Integration. The Before Persist check box on the event restriction should be selected to indicate that this agent should handle persistence of the order base. When executed, the order base will be released. It may also be configured to create a buy and/or sell shipment from the releases that are created. Oracle Transportation Management ships with PUBLIC agent ORDER BASE – INSERT that may be copied and used as a template.

ORDER RELEASE – INSERT

The ORDER RELEASE – INSERT agent action is intended to be used in agents that listen for an order release to be created by XML Integration. The Before Persist check box on the event restriction should be selected to indicate that this agent should handle persistence of the order release. Oracle Transportation Management ships with PUBLIC agent ORDER RELEASE – INSERT that may be copied and used as a template.

GENERATE SHIP UNITS

The GENERATE SHIP UNITS agent action is useful when the order configuration is set to not create ship units automatically. This enables an order with only lines to be modified more easily since there is no impact to ship units. Ship units may then be created when the order is ready for planning. This action may also be used to re-create the ship units from the lines.
