Creating Locations through the Interface (UI)

Using the Oracle WMS Cloud “LOC” interface file, you can map the warehouse locations into WMS.

Step 1: Fill out the “LOC” excel file

Fill out all the necessary information into the location interface. Column A defines the location type. Refer to the table below:

Interface Code	Location Type
C	Consolidation
D	Dock
Q	QC
V	VAS
P	Drop
S	Staging Location
A	Active
H	Pack and Hold
Y	Shipping Location
R	Reserve
K	Packing Station
T	Receiving Station

Step 2: Setting up the parameter for location updates

WMS requires a special parameter to be set before creating location updates in the system (for locations that contain inventory).

1. Go to the “Facility Parameters” screen.
2. Set the LOCATION_UPDATES_WITH_INVENTORY parameter to “YES”.

Step 3: Uploading the Interface file into WMS

1. Go to the “Input Interface” screen.
2. Use the drop-down to select the appropriate interface to process:
3. Click on “Upload Files” and navigate to the file you wish to upload.
4. When the file displays, click “Run Interface”.
5. The system will return a message dialog notifying you that the file has been successfully processed.
