How does one control Scheduling after booking an Order?

As we have already seen either the lines get automatically scheduled or these are scheduled when the order is booked. But if you want to postpone scheduling still further…

This can be achieved by two ways.
a. Changing of work flow definition
b. Applying hold at the time of order entry

a. Changing of work flow definition

In 11.5.10 release 'Schedule - Line, Deferred' is available to perform scheduling activity with minimal manual intervention.
From Release 12 along with 'Schedule - Line, Deferred' a new sub process 'Schedule - Line, Manual' is introduced.

For example let us consider “Schedule - Line, Deferred” here. Deferred scheduling work flow process to be used in place of the default 'Schedule - Line' activity.

One of the above sub-process can be copied and customized to the generic line process.

The process “Schedule - Line, Deferred” should be used in place of “Schedule – Line” in the Line work flow.

1. Copy “Line Flow – Generic” to some other name for example XX Line Flow -Generic.
2. Copy “Schedule - Line Deferred” sub process into the new work flow process XX Line Flow –Generic as below

3. Replace this with new one.

The New workflow would look as below

Attach this new process to the Transaction Type in question.

Understanding Schedule – Line, Deferred:

Once booking is done then the work flow stops at “Schedule – Deferred” status and this would remain at “Schedule – Deferred” activity. Since this is a deferred activity, we need manual intervention to push this further and this is done using Work flow Background process request.

Sample work flow status diagram for one such case:

Tool --> Work flow Status

The line would wait for an external activity to progress the workflow to Schedule activity.

b. Applying hold at the time of order entry

Apply hold once the line is saved and when booking “Could not Schedule. Line on Hold” processing message pops up. Please apply the hold which is not an workflow activity-specific hold.

Note: If the hold is specific to workflow activity, then the Workflow Activity attached should be 'Line Scheduling' for Workflow Item 'OM Order Line' or Workflow Activity attached should be 'Book Order' for Workflow Item 'OM Order Header'

Sample Test case showing the above

1. Create an Order and apply the hold at the time of order entry.

2. Book the Order following error message pops up

Error message: “Could not Schedule. Line on Hold”

See the Order is Booked but Schedule Ship Date is not populated (Scheduling not done) and Order Line is on Hold.

Work flow status diagram shows

Once the hold is released, do Actions -> Progress Order on the line, or run the Schedule Order concurrent request to schedule the Order.

Note: “OM: Schedule Line on Hold” should be set to No. If the profile is Yes, then the workflow would complete the scheduling activity.

APPLY/RELEASE HOLDS

-----------------------------

HOLDS and RESPONSIBILITIES

Holds can be applied and released by responsibilities.

When you define a hold, you also define which responsibility can apply the hold

and which responsibility can release the hold. 

EXAMPLE I:

Create hold called Management Review

Assign Order Management Super User the ability to Apply the hold.

Result: Order Management Super User can Apply the hold, but no one can Release

the hold.

EXAMPLE II:

Create hold called Management Review

Assign Order Management Super User the ability to Release the hold.

Result - No one can Apply the hold and only Order Management Super User can 

Release the hold.

Thus, if you are going to assign a responsibility to Apply a hold, 

you will need to create a corresponding entry with a responsibility to Release 

the hold if you want to Release the hold; if you are going to assign a 

responsibilty to Release a hold, you will need to create a corresponding entry 

with a responsibility to Apply the hold if you want to Apply the hold.

If you do not assign any responsibility to Apply or Release the hold, then 

any responsibility can Apply the hold and any responsibility can Release the

hold.

APPLY HOLDS

In order to Apply a hold, you must define a Hold Source.

Additionally, the Hold Source can be applied immediately and to existing/future

Part No. A7702

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

-----------------------------

1. What are the Item Attributes that affect Drop Ship orders?

Inventory: Transactable

Purchasing: Purchased, Purchasable, List Price (must be entered)

Receiving: Receipt Routing set to direct

Order Entry: Customer Ordered, Customers Enabled, OE Transactable, Shippable

NOTE: With family Pack G and lower only standard items can be drop shipped.

With family pack H and higher, kits and models can be drop shipped.

Please review metalink note 113636.1 for item setup.

2. How do I drop ship across operating units?

Release 11i does not currently support this functionality.

3. How are over/under shipments handled in drop shipment?

If part of a drop-ship line ships and you do not wish to fulfill the

remaining quantity, cancel the line. If the quantity shipped is less than

the quantity ordered, the sales order line will be split into two lines. The

first line will display the quantity shipped and the second line will display

the backordered quantity. Over-shipments must also be handled manually. If the

Supplier ships more than the ordered quantity, you can bill your customer for

the additional quantity or request that they return the item.

Use the Sales Order and Purchase Order Discrepancy Report to view differences

between your drop-ship sales orders and their associated purchase

requisitions and orders.

4. When the Requisition Import parameter 'Initiate Approval after Import' is

set to 'No', the requisition still gets imported in an approved status.

Why is this?

The Purchase Release program in the OM module ignores the setting of this

parameter. When it is populating the data in the po_requisitions_interface

table the field authorization_status is hardcoded with the value 'APPROVED'.

Thus in the case of drop shipments, the requisition always gets imported in

an approved status. The reason for this is because the sales order has

already been 'purchase released'.

5. Did any drop-ship functionality change from R11 to R11i?

In R11i drop shipping is Workflow enabled. The OM Order Line Workflow calls

the 'Create Supply - Line' process. This process has a function called

'Branch on Source Type' which will detect an item with a Source Type of

'External' and set the line to a 'Purchase Release - Deferred' status.

Then when the Workflow Background processor picks up the line, it will

initiate the Purchase Release process to write the records to the interface

table. After the Requisition Import is successfully run, the sales order

line status will change to 'Awaiting Receipt'.

Another big change in R11i is in the way locations are maintained. You no

longer need to define a separate Purchasing Location for each customer

Ship-To location, as was necessary in R11. Purchasing now uses a view a the

HZ and HR tables to derive the locations.

6. How can I view the Purchasing information for a drop ship order?

After the requisition import successfully pulls in the data from the

PO_REQUISITIONS_INTERFACE_ALL table, and creates the internal requisition,

this information is available from the Sales Orders form as follows:

Select the sales order line with the externally sourced item and hit

Actions -> Additional Line Information

Select the Drop Ship tab to view the data

7. Does the Purchase Release concurrent program still exist?

Yes, this program can be run from the Orders, Returns -> Purchase Release

menu. If there are holds which prevent the order from progressing through

the Workflow normally after the order is booked, these holds must be

manually released. Then the externally sourced lines can be sent to

Purchasing by running the concurrent program. Alternatively, you can use

the Actions -> Progress Order button to push the lines through to the

PO_REQUISTIONS_INTERFACE_ALL table for Requisition Import to pick them up.

8. Can you drop ship kits?

You can drop ship kits in family pack H and higher.

9. You are trying to split a line on a drop ship order line after purchase

release; you receive the message:

You are not allowed to split order line because Line is released to purchasing
