1 Introduction
This document will provide an overview of the integration between Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud and Oracle Retail solutions. The Oracle Retail solutions included in this integration are primarily Oracle Retail IntegrationFoot 1, and Oracle Retail MerchandisingFoot 2. But, there are also integration points with Oracle Retail Store Inventory and Operations Cloud Service (SIOCS)Foot 3 and Oracle Retail Order Broker (OROB).
Figure 1-1 Integration Points
The integration between these solutions has been built using pre-existing integrations and using mapping tools that are part of the Retail Integration component known as RIB (Retail Integration Bus). Messages from Merchandising and SIOCS are published to the RIB and then transformed into the format needed by WMS Cloud. The mapping tool in the integration layer then will call the WMS Cloud REST APIs to deliver the information.
Similarly, when WMS Cloud sends information to the Oracle Retail solutions, the WMS Cloud outbound interface is configured to work with an exposed SOAP API in the integration layer, which transforms the data into the format needed by Merchandising and places it on the queue to be picked up by the appropriate RIB subscriber using a REST API.

WMS Cloud also subscribes to inbound ASNs that are received from suppliers with shipment details for purchase orders. These are also brokered through RIB, but the source for these transactions is the supplier.
