Roles & Users

• Oracle Shipping Execution provides data access controls called

roles that control users’ access to the Actions List and Tools Menu

in the Shipping Transactions Form and the Quick Ship Window.

• Roles are assigned to users using grants that control access to

view or edit specific shipping data or actions.



Roles & Users

• You can create customized roles by defining the access controls

you want.

• A user can have different roles in different organizations.

• If an Organization is not specified when granting a role to a user.

The grant would be applicable to all organizations.



Roles & Users

• A Role can provide either view-only, edit-only, or a combination of

view and edit access to the shipping entities depending on the set

up of the role.



Define Roles

• You can define roles by either coping an existing role or manually

defining a new role

• Enable each action, on the shipping entities, that you want the user

to have permission to perform.



• The role is assigned to an user by a grant.

• More than one grant can be assigned if the user requires different

access controls to more than one organization.

• To change the role, you must end the user's existing role and assign

a new role with the new privileges.

Pick Release

• Pick Release creates move orders for picking from inventory. You

can customize the release criteria by defining:

Release Rules

Release Sequence Rules

Pick Slip Grouping Rules



Move Orders

• The Pick Release process creates move orders pre approved

requests for subinventory transfer. To release move order lines, the

lines must be allocated with the materials from the subinventory.



Auto Allocate

• Auto Allocation is a process by which you can automatically

allocate move order lines with subinventory items based on the

Oracle Inventory picking engine.



Pick Confirm

• Pick Confirmation is a process that performs the transfer of

materials from the source subinventory to the staging location. The

transfer is performed based on the allocation made by Oracle

Inventory to the move order lines.



Auto Pick Confirm

• Auto pick confirm can be set up as the default to occur immediately

after the lines are detailed if an organization's picks rarely deviate

from the suggested picking lines or the overhead of requiring a pick

confirmation is unmanageable.



Auto Create Delivery

• Deliveries are required to perform Ship Confirm.

• Deliveries can be automatically created from the Release Sales

Order form during Pick Release or from the Shipping Transaction’s

Action menu any time before Ship Confirm.



Methods of Pick Release



Pick Release Process Flow



Configuring the Pick Release Process

• You can configure the pick release process as per your business

requirement.

moved to the Staging Subinventory



Line Statuses before and after Pick Release

use the organization’s default picking rule which is found on the

ATP, Pick, Item-Sourcing Tab of the Organization Parameters for

the shipping organization.



Pick Slip Grouping Rules

• You define the Pick Slip Grouping Rules to specific the criteria by

which the delivery lines are grouped together in a pick slip.

• Prerequisites for Ship Confirm:

Delivery lines must have a status of Staged/Pick Confirmed.

Delivery must be open.

At least one delivery line must be assigned to the delivery.

• Containers, also called as License Plate Numbers(LPNs), are used

to pack items. You can create and manage LPNs at any point in the

shipping process.

Overview of Packing LPNs/Containers



• To be able to pack lines into LPNs/Containers the following setups

need to be done.

• Mandatory Setup:

Weights and volumes for the items that will be involved in the

packing process

Container Types

Container-Load Relationship

Shipping Parameters

• Optional Setup:

Default Master and Detail Container for Customer Item

Define LPN name Defaults

LPNs/Containers Setup



• The container-item relationship defines the number of items that

can be packed into a container. When setting this relationship

define the maximum quantity that can be packed into the container.

Container-Item Relationship



• Specify the basis on which the minimum fill percentage for a

container in your organization is calculated.

• The value you specify for this parameter ensures that the

containers are filled at least with the minimum percentage of its

total capacity.

Default Percent Fill Basis



• The items from the delivery lines are automatically packed into

containers based on the container-item relationship.

• Auto-Packing has two options of packing:

Auto-pack

Auto-pack Master

Default Auto-Pack Option



• You can define the LPN name defaults in the Organization

Parameters window.

Define LPN Name Defaults



• You can pack multiple containers with multiple lines using one of

following methods:

Auto-Packing: The delivery lines are packed automatically

into LPNs based on the container-item relationship set up in

Oracle Inventory.

Packing Workbench: You can use the Packing Workbench to

split the delivery lines between containers or to pack

sequentially one container at a time to its full capacity.

Manually Packing: You can manually pack containers if you

have delivery lines you want to pack without using the auto-

pack method.

Packing into Containers/LPNs



• You can pack delivery lines into containers:

Manually: using the action Create LPNs in the Shipping

Transaction form.

Automatically: Items are packed based on the Customer-item

relationship.

Packing into Containers/LPNs



• The shipping Public API’s (Application Program Interface) are

PL/SQL packages which when called using wrapper files will

perform the same actions that are possible from the Shipping

applications User Interfaces.

• In order to call these API’s you only need to pass the required

parameters.
