Schedule Order Lines Manually

Oracle Order Management usually schedules an order line when it assigns an orchestration process to the line. However, if the order line is currently processing a manual scheduling step, then you can manually schedule the line.

  1. Go to the Order Management work area, then search for and select the lines that you need to schedule.

  2. Use one of these actions:

    • Check Availability. Select a scheduling option. If you select Override Schedule, then order promising doesn't calculate options.

    • Schedule.

    You can also modify an attribute that will reschedule the line, such as Requested Ship Date or Requested Arrival Date.

Note

If You

Then

Unschedule an order line.

Order Management releases supply so it becomes available for some other, higher priority order line.

If you unschedule an order line, then Order Management sets the status of the line to Awaiting Scheduling.

Schedule a configured item or shipment set.

If you select an option for one or more order lines, and if these lines are part of a configured item or shipment set, then Order Management applies the scheduling option that you select to all of the order lines that are part of the configured item or shipment set.

Attempt to schedule or unschedule an order line that's on hold.

You might encounter an error that prevents you from doing an action on an order line:

  • Schedule

  • Unschedule

  • Reserve

  • Unreserve

Its possible a hold on the order line is preventing you from doing the action. See if there's a hold on the line. If there is, release it, then do the action.

For details, see Hold Your Sales Orders.

Override the Schedule

If you set Override Schedule to Yes, then Order Management schedules shipment depending on how you edit the order line:

What You Set

What Order Management Sets

Scheduled Ship Date

Scheduled arrival date and shipping method.

Scheduled Arrival Date

Scheduled ship date and shipping method.

Scheduled Arrival Date and Shipping Method

Scheduled ship date.

Scheduled Ship Date and Scheduled Arrival Date

Nothing.

Note

  • Scheduled Ship Date or Scheduled Arrival Date is required.

  • If you don't manually set a value for an attribute, then Order Management gets the value from the order line.

  • Shipping Method is optional. If you don't set it, and if its not available on the order line, then Global Order Promising sends it and the scheduled dates.

  • Order Management updates the shipping method only if the order administrator sets up Global Order Promising to promise sales orders. If it's not set up, then the shipping method might not contain a value. Contact your order administrator for details. For background, see Overview of Global Order Promising.

Schedule Order Lines During a Drop Shipment

An application that's downstream of Order Management might cancel the purchase order or purchase request for a for a variety of reasons, such as supply isn't available to fulfill the item in time to meet the requested fulfillment date. Oracle Procurement is an example of a downstream application.

If a downstream application cancels the purchase order or purchase request, then Order Management updates your sales order differently depending on whether your order administrator has set up Order Management to use Global Order Promising.

Order Management Uses Global Order Promising

If the downstream application cancels the purchase order and it:

Doesn't Cancel the Purchase Requisition

Cancels the Purchase Requisition

Order Management sets the order line status to Requisition Created.

Order Management sets the order line status to Manual Scheduling Required. You can do one of the actions described earlier in this topic to manually schedule the line.

Order Management Doesn't Use Global Order Promising

If the downstream application cancels the purchase order and it:

Doesn't Cancel the Purchase Requisition

Cancels the Purchase Requisition

Order Management sets the order line status to Requisition Created.

Order Management sets the order line status to Change Pending, and displays a message. For example:

The procurement application canceled the requisition line or purchase order schedule for sales order 528693, order line 1-1. (DOO-2685997)

To fix this problem, try one of these solutions:

  • Revise the sales order to cancel this order line.

  • Assign a different supplier or warehouse.

  • If the supplier can fulfill demand now, then use the Orchestration Process page to recover the task.

Review Promising When You Prioritize and Reschedule Order Lines

Try It

  1. Go to Home > Order Management > Order Management (New) > Sales Order Lines.
  2. Select some order lines, then click More Actions > Check Availability.
  3. On the Check Availability page, click More Actions > Manage Scheduling Priority > Create.
  4. In the dialog that displays, enter a name, such as My Scheduling Priorities, then specify how you want to sort. For example:
    Prioritize by Requested Date in descending order
    Then by
    Requested Quantity in ascending order
    Then by
    Order Creation Date and Time in ascending order
    
  5. Click Create.
  6. On the Check Availability page, click Scheduling Priority Application Default > My Scheduling Priorities, then examine the results.

You can select different priorities. Assume you create another priority named GOP-RULES. You can select it, then see how it affects scheduling.

You can use these attributes to specify priority:

  • Requested Date
  • Scheduled Ship Date
  • Scheduled Arrival Date
  • Order Creation Date and Time
  • Order Margin
  • Order Revenue
  • Requested Quantity
  • Scheduled Quantity
  • Item Price
  • Fulfillment Cost
  • Order Date

Note

  • You can add up to three rules in one priority scheduling rule.
  • If you don't specify a scheduling priority or select one, then promising will use the Requested Date attribute to sort order lines from one or more sales orders.
  • You can manually update the Priority attribute on the Check Availability page at any time. Refresh the page to see the results of your edit.

Review Supply Allocation

Use a Redwood page to review the total and remaining supply that's allocated each week for the items that you select. You can also view the expected fill rate and on-time percentage.

The supply that's available for an allocated item might not meet demand and that might affect the requested quantity and timing. You can now access a report that illustrates the total amount that's assigned to each node in the allocation hierarchy, the remaining quantity that customers can order each week, and other related measures. The report also summarizes the amount of demand that's scheduled on time and the fill rate. Use these details to explain delay or adjust quantity so you can avoid allocation limits.

Try It:

  1. Go to the Order Management work area and open a sales order that's in Processing status.
  2. Select an order line, then click More Actions > Check Availability.

Here's another way:

Go to Home > Order Management > Show More > Supply Allocation.

The report displays supply allocation data for an item-organization. It includes data for a variety of measures:
Measure Description
Allocated Supply Supply allocated to the allocation node during the week according to an allocation rule.
Available Supply Allocation that's available on a node. It's the allocated supply minus the consumed supply.
Consumed Supply Allocated supply that other order lines have already consumed.
Cumulative Available Supply Allocation that's still available for each week on a cumulative basis.
Total Weekly Supply Total supply for the item and organization for each week without referring to an allocation node.
Manual Allocation Quantity of supply that's allocated to an allocation node.
Allocation from Redeployment Supply that promising redeployed from other allocation nodes.
Supply Allocated for Redeployment Allocated supply for the node minus the supply that's protected according to the value in the Stealing Protection Percentage attribute on the allocation rule.
Supply Allocated to Child Nodes Allocation to child nodes.
Gross Allocated Supply Supply that promising allocated to the parent node and its children.
Gross Allocation from Redeployment

Total quantity of supply that promising redeployed for an allocation node and its children. The report displays:

  • A negative value for supply that it redeployed to other nodes.
  • A positive value for supply that it redeployed from other nodes.
Gross Available Supply Allocation that's available for the parent node and its children.
Gross Consumed Supply Allocation consumed at the parent node and its children.
Gross Cumulative Supply Cumulative allocation that's available at the parent node and its children.
Total Supply Total supply that's available. Use it to get the history about shipped sales order.
Consumed Supply by Shipped Orders Allocated supply that shipped orders consumed at a node. Use it to get the history about shipped sales order.
Gross Consumed Supply by Shipped Orders Allocation that promising consumed at the parent node and its child nodes for orders already shipped. Use it to get the history about shipped sales order.
The report displays data for demand satisfaction measures:
Measure Description
Demand Quantity Total quantity for the demand at an allocation node for each week.
Scheduled On Time Percentage

A percent that measures the number of sales orders out of the total number of orders for one week. Displayed as the percent of sales orders where:

  • The scheduled ship date is less than or equal to the requested ship date.

Or

  • The scheduled arrival date is less than or equal to the requested arrival date. It's the number of sales orders that are scheduled and on time divided by the total number of sales orders.
Scheduled Fill Rate Percentage

A percent that measures the demand out of the total demand for one week. Displayed as a percent of sales orders where:

  • The scheduled ship date is less than or equal to the requested ship date.
  • The scheduled arrival date is less than or equal to the requested arrival date. It's the item's quantity that's scheduled and on time divided by the total quantity.
Demand Revenue Amount of revenue from the demand for the requested dates during the week.
Scheduled On Time Revenue

Amount of revenue from the demand for the requested dates during the week where:

  • The scheduled ship date is equal to the requested ship date.

or

  • The scheduled arrival date is equal to the requested arrival date.

Note

  • You can use this report only for items where you have set their ATP mode to Supply Chain Search, and where you have enabled the Respect Allocation Constraints attribute in your ATP rule. See Set Attributes on Your Supply Chain.
  • You can't use this report for items where you set the ATP mode to Infinite Availability or to Lead-Time Based.
  • The allocation set ups in the allocation rule rely on the Attribute-Based Planning feature.
  • This report displays allocation details for each week according to allocations made from Monday through Sunday. You can specify only Monday as the start date.
