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).
- Go to the “Facility Parameters” screen.
- Set the LOCATION_UPDATES_WITH_INVENTORY parameter to “YES”.
Step 3: Uploading the Interface file into WMS
- Go to the “Input Interface” screen.
- Use the drop-down to select the appropriate interface to process:
- Click on “Upload Files” and navigate to the file you wish to upload.
- When the file displays, click “Run Interface”.
- The system will return a message dialog notifying you that the file has been successfully processed.
