Creating Purchase Orders through Interfaces (UI)

You can create Purchase Orders through an Oracle WMS Cloud Excel template.

Step 1: Preparing the Input Interface file:
  • Below rules must be followed in order to correctly use the Oracle WMS Cloud interface:
    • The filename must start with the letters “POS”.
    • Populate the “required” columns in the interface specification document.
    • Populate [H1] for every distinct Order number and [H2] for its details (see figure below).The user must populate the correct sequence in the ‘seq_nbr’ field (i.e. no duplicate values).Creating multiple POs in the same POS File

      The figure above is an example of a file that creates three different POs. Users can create multiple POs within the same POS file by using the “headings” column to differentiate one PO record from another. A ‘[H1]’ value denotes a new PO Header record, while a ‘[H2]’ value denotes a new PO Detail record.

Step 2: Uploading the Interface file into Oracle WMS Cloud

  1. Go to the “Input Interface” screen.
  2. Use the drop-down to select the appropriate interface to process:

    Selecting the Interface type
  3. Click on “Upload Files” and navigate to the file you wish to upload.
  4. When the screen displays the file, click “Run Interface”.
  5. The system will return a message dialog that the file has been successfully processed.
