Purchase Order

5 Purchase Order

Purchase orders can be created through the Merchandising UI or through integration with third-party systems. Once purchase orders are created in Merchandising, there are a number of batch processes that manage PO data.

Program Summary

The following batch designs are included in this functional area:

See also the Merchandising Operations Guide Volume 2 for details on the following purchase order related integrations:

Download of Purchase Order from Merchandising to Suppliers (edidlord)
Upload Purchase Order and Purchase Order Change Acknowledgements from Suppliers to Merchandising (ediupack)

Oracle Retail Merchandising Batch Schedule

Design Overview

This module applies deals to a purchase order by calculating the discounts and rebates that are applicable to a purchase order. It will fetch orders that need to be recalculated for cost from the DEAL_CALC_QUEUE table. Using the dealordlib shared library, it will update the unit cost and populate the ORDLOC_DISCOUNT and ORDHEAD_DISCOUNT tables.

Restart/Recovery

This program has inherent restart ability, since records are deleted from deal_calc_queue as they are processed. Recommended maximum commit counter is low.

Oracle Retail Merchandising Batch Schedule

Design Overview

This batch program is used to process POs that need to be deleted or closed that meet certain conditions. The criteria are as mentioned below:

Category 1

The order is not in ‘C'ompleted status and was previously approved.
The number of days between the latest ship date and the current date is greater than the ‘Approved PO Close Delay' system parameter.
There are no open shipments for the order.
End of week date should not be null.

Category 2

The order is not in ‘C'ompleted status and was previously approved.
A specified amount of time (‘Approved PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the not after date of the PO has passed.
A specified amount of time (‘Partially Received PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the not after date has passed.
A specified amount of time (‘Partially Received PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the expected receipt date (or shipped date if the expected date has not been captured) has passed.
There are no open appointments in the system for the order.

Category 3

The order has a status of worksheet or submitted, and the order has never been previously approved.
The number of days between the current date and the order creation date is greater than the ‘Worksheet PO Clean Up Delay' system parameter.
The order is a manual order (not created by replenishment).
End of week date should not be null.

Retrieved orders are subsequently processed based on their category:

Category 1 orders will be closed. Closing an order involves adjusting the order quantities, shipment quantities and OTB. Any allocation associated with the order will also be closed if it is released ‘X' number of days before vdate. The ‘X' number of days is defaulted from an external system and set on the Merchandising codes table for code_type ‘DEFT'.
For Category 2 orders, orders will be closed if there are no pending receipts or if the ‘Auto Close Partially Received' system indicator is set to ‘Y'.
Category 3 orders will be deleted from the system.

Restart/Recovery

Restart recovery is implicit since the program purges and cancels records in the database one order at a time.

Design Overview

This background job is composed of two steps processing. It will have a threading assignment and a business logic processing.

Thread assignment program will filter eligible records from order header table based on defined criteria. This program is used to process POs that need to be deleted or closed that meet certain conditions. The criteria are as mentioned below:

Category 1

The order is not in ‘C'ompleted status and was previously approved.
The number of days between the latest ship date and the current date is greater than the ‘Approved PO Close Delay' system parameter.
There are no open shipments for the order.
End of week date should not be null.

Category 2

The order is not in ‘C'ompleted status and was previously approved.
A specified amount of time (‘Approved PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the not after date of the PO has passed.
A specified amount of time (‘Partially Received PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the not after date has passed.
A specified amount of time (‘Partially Received PO Close Delay' system parameter) after the expected receipt date (or shipped date if the expected date has not been captured) has passed.
There are no open appointments in the system for the order.

Category 3

The order has a status of worksheet or submitted, and the order has never been previously approved.
The number of days between the current date and the order creation date is greater than the ‘Worksheet PO Clean Up Delay' system parameter.
The order is a manual order (not created by replenishment).
End of week date should not be null.

These records are chunked and Thread ID is assigned for each. They will be stored temporarily in a staging table.

The Business logic program will process all records from the staging table. Using bulk processing, this program will process retrieved records based on their category:

Category 1 orders will be closed. Closing an order involves adjusting the order quantities, shipment quantities and OTB. Any allocation associated with the order will also be closed if it is released ‘X' number of days before vdate. The ‘X' number of days is defaulted from an external system and set on the RMFCS codes table for code type ‘DEFT'.
For Category 2 orders, orders will be closed if there are no pending receipts or if the ‘Auto Close Partially Received' system indicator is set to ‘Y'.
Category 3 orders will be deleted from the system.

It will free up and clean the staging table afterwards. There is a STOP ON NEXT feature in bulk processing (through a loop) where Administrators can stop this batch with a flip of this indicator.

Oracle Retail Merchandising Batch Schedule

Design Overview

This purpose of this module is to continue the process started by the batch program ediupack.pc of building purchase orders that reflect the vendor-generated orders as received through the EDI 855. This module will process records from the temporary EDI order table and create the purchase orders on the PO tables.

The post-processing function of this batch on the prepost batch truncates the EDI temporary order table.

Restart/Recovery

The logical unit of work for the program is a vendor order number, department and supplier combination. The program's restartability is dependent on the value of the Department Level Orders system parameter. Allowing multi-department orders (that is, the indicator is set to 'N') will restart the program from the last successfully processed vendor order number and supplier. If the system requires a department on the orders (that is, the indicator is set to 'Y'), then the program will restart from the last successfully processed vendor order number, department, and supplier.

Based on records on the SUPP_PREISSUE table, this batch program reserves order numbers for suppliers that do Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) by placing these pre-generated order numbers on the ORD_PREISSUE table.

Restart/Recovery

The logical unit of work for this program is set at thesupplier level, based on a single record from the SUPP_PREISSUE table. It uses v_restart_supplier to achieve restart/recovery.

The changes will be posted when the commit_max_ctr value is reached and the value of the counter is subject to change based on implementation. The commit_max_ctr field should be set to prevent excessive rollback space usage, and to reduce the overhead of file I/O.

This background job is composed of two-step processing. It will have a threading assignment and a business logic processing.

Thread assignment program will filter eligible records from order header and other associated and order-related tables based on its conditions below:

If importing is not enabled in the system (as defined by the import system indicator = 'N') and if invoice matching is not installed, then all details associated with an order are deleted when the order has been closed for more months than specified in 'Order History Months' purge parameter. Orders will only be deleted if all allocations associated, if any, have been closed.
If invoice matching is installed, then all details associated with an order are deleted when the order has been closed for more months than specified in the 'Order History Months' purge parameter. Orders are deleted only if allocations associated have been closed, shipments from the order have been completely matched to invoices or closed, and all those invoices have been posted.
If importing is enabled in the system (as defined by the import system indicator = 'Y') and if invoice matching is not installed, then all details associated with the order are deleted when the order has been closed for more months than specified in the 'Order History Months' purge option. This action presupposes that all ALC records associated with an order are in 'Processed' status, specified in the ALC header and allocations associated to the order, if any, have been closed.
If invoice matching is installed, then all details associated with an order are deleted when the order has been closed for more months than specified in the 'Order History Months' purge parameter. This action presupposes that all ALC records associated with an order are in 'Processed' status, specified in ALC head, all allocations associated to the order, if any, have been closed, all shipments from the order have been completely matched to invoices or closed, and all those invoices have been posted.
If the order to be purged is an import PO and it doesn't have a letter of credit (LC) then purge the related records related to obligations, ALC and ICB transfers.

These records are chunked and Thread ID is assigned for each. They will be stored temporarily in a staging table.

The Business logic program will process all records from the staging table. Using bulk processing, this program will delete the records from order header and other associated and order-related tables. It will free up and clean the staging table afterwards.

Design Overview

This batch program will process all orders eligible for scaling during the nightly replenishment run. The purpose of this program is to select all of the orders created by the replenishment programs which are eligible for scaling. Once selected, the program will serve as a wrapper program and send each order number into the supplier constraint scaling library to actually perform the scaling on the order.

The orders which will be eligible for scaling are as follows:

If due order processing was used, only orders with a written date of today, origin type of zero (0) (replenishment order), due order processing indicator of Yes, due order indicator of Yes and a scale order to constraint indicator of Y will be processed. This encompasses all due orders created by replenishment which have constraints associated with them.

If due order processing was not used, only orders with a written date of today, origin type of zero (0) (replenishment order), order approve indicator of Yes, status of 'W'orksheet, due order processing indicator of No, due order indicator of Yes, and a scale order to constraint indicator of Yes will be processed. This encompasses all approved orders created by replenishment which have constraints associated with them.

For Franchise POs, their associated Franchise Orders will be updated when quantities of the franchise POs are changed due to supplier constraint.

Schedule

Oracle Retail Merchandising Batch Schedule

Design Overview

This background job is composed of two-step processing. It will have a threading assignment and a business logic processing.

Order changes made by the client that may need to be sent to the vendor. The order changes should always be referred to as 'versions' and kept clearly distinct from order 'revisions' which are vendor changes uploaded via the ediupack program.

Thread assignment program will filter eligible records from order revision history and order header tables based on its order status ('A'pproved or 'C'losed) and supplier that exists from supplier table. When orders are approved or when approved orders are modified, this program selects order numbers from the order revision history table. These records are chunked and Thread ID is assigned for each. They will be stored temporarily in a staging table.

The Business logic program will process all records from the staging table. Using bulk processing, this program will writes versions of approved orders and its current order information to the order/allocation revision history tables. After the new version has been written to the order revision tables, all records will be deleted from the order revision history table for that order record. If an order is not in approved status at the time the batch program runs, then none of the above processing will occur. These records will stay on the order revision history table until the PO is approved or deleted. It will free up and clean the staging table afterwards. There is a STOP ON NEXT feature in bulk processing (through a loop) where Administrators can stop this batch with a flip of this indicator.

Design Overview

Ordrev.pc will write versions of approved orders to the order revision history tables. When orders are approved or when approved orders are modified, this program selects order numbers from the REV_ORDERS table and writes current order information to the order/allocation revision tables. After the new version has been written to the order revision tables, all records will be deleted from the REV_ORDERS table for that order_no.

This program processes order changes made by the client that may need to be sent to the vendor. The order changes should always be referred to as ‘versions' and kept clearly distinct from order ‘revisions' which are vendor changes uploaded via the ediupack program.

If an order is not in approved status at the time the batch program runs, then none of the above processing will occur. These records will stay on the REV_ORDERS table until the PO is approved or deleted.

Restart/Recovery

Restart ability will be implied because the records that are selected from the driving cursor will be deleted before the commit. Restart library functions will still be included to ensure that rollback segments are not exceeded (by committing at intervals) and to perform basic record keeping functionality.
