Direct Allocation
Oracle WMS Cloud allows you to allocate inventory to an order and process the IBLPN to an OBLPN without running a wave through Direct Allocation. This transaction provides the following parameters:
Parameters
- reuse-lpn - Set the parameter to Yes to enable the system to reuse the same lpn number when creating an OBLPN.
- prompt-drop – Set the parameter to Yes to prompt for a drop location where you want to drop the OBLPNs.
- auto-load – Set the parameter to Yes – the system automatically packs and loads the allocated LPN to the OB load. If the auto-load is set to No, then the system consumes the IBLPN and updates the corresponding OBLPN to “Packed” status and IHT records are updated in the inventory history accordingly.
Configuration:
- Make sure that the Direct Allocation RF screen is configured in the system with items and orders created in the system.
- Define the parameter for the Direct Allocation transaction. The parameters are detailed above.
