Balance Sheet by FG Product type
• Needed separate finished goods accounts so the balance sheet has values in different accounts.– Modems – Detergents – Antennas – Household cleaners– Routers – Candles
• Also the received items might be finished goods. – Distributors– Spare Parts
No more logical sub inventories for account numbers!

Always wanted to define on a BOM that they just need one or two with each Discrete Job.

Update Material Control in Common Bills
• While retaining a common BOM relationship, users can update the following attributes at the org level:– Operation Sequence– WIP Supply Type– Sub-Inventory– Locator– Include in cost roll-up
• Benefits:Facilitates standardization by deploying common bills while enabling typical organization overrides

Phantom Labor included in cost rollup option
• Phantoms have many uses• One is to define parts being made and the
labor time, but no need to transact them• Problem was that the labor cost were not
included in the cost rollup

Making 100, but need 2 boxes for each Job

Inventory
• Material Status– Used for Lot control before QA Approval is
complete you can not reserve a lot.• Defining Picking Rules
– Used to be only one for shipping and Discrete Job picking.
– Now you can have many!• OPM Inventory Convergence
– Uses common inventory (lot status and more)– Shipping and reserving
25
![Page 26: Oracle Quality](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061112/5457f7edb1af9ffa398b4644/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Material Status control restricts the movement and usage of portions of on-hand inventory.
• Using material status control enables you to control whether you can pick or ship an internal order or sales order, or issue material for a work order. You can also specify whether material needs to be quarantined until you inspect it.
• In addition, you can determine whether products with a particular status can be reserved, included in available to promise calculations, or netted in production planning.
• You assign material statuses at four levels: subinventory, locator, lot, and serial.
• Used to have a creative way of doing this one (first locator had security turned on) RW- I-1-A-1 move to RW A-1-1FDA approved

28
Examples
• Control transactions without having to move inventory to a non-reserve-able sub-inventory.
• Hold lots until they are approved or expired• QC must approved or test before production can use the
material (or ship it).
![Page 29: Oracle Quality](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061112/5457f7edb1af9ffa398b4644/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• You can create picking rules that enable you to sort picks based on criteria that you define for sales orders, process manufacturing batches, or work in process jobs.
• Oracle Inventory reviews the picking criteria order and the options for each criterion.

Purchasing/MRP
• Auto-Approval Tolerances for Change Orders• This one is long overdue, still creates new revision.• Changing dates when not using iSupplier can be very time
consuming and most often didn’t require approval.• Buyer Work Center
• HTML PO Summary and change without so many levels.• Easier user interface with all a buyer needs in one html form –
Auto-create PO, create and query PO’s and blankets • Rescheduling of PO from ASCP ******
– Works well for Planner/Buyer role (i.e. the planner for an item is the buyer too)
– Could always do this with unreleased Discrete Jobs.• BI/XML Publisher used for PO layout.

Quick Organizer Configurability
• Study order entry flow and streamline (Mass change was missing and more in the past)
• Map to improve user experience– Many other tools are available– Defaulting rules– Forms personalization

Item Order-ability• Businesses need to be able to order specific products depending on specific
customers. Instead of being able to view and select all items for all customers in the sales orders window, you can now restrict the item list based on customer and other related criteria.
• If the value of the profile option OM: Use Materialized View for Items LOV (Honours Item Orderability Rules) is set to No, then the Ordered Items LOV lists all the items of the item validation organization of the current operating unit. This doesn't consider the defined item orderability rules, however if there is a defined rule that prevents the item from being ordered, then an error message is displayed during the saving of the order. You will not be able to save the order.

Reservation is to Discrete Job until the product is reported as made.

Reservation changes to be linked to inventory after the product is made, but the tables still track the original discrete job link. Here is the shipped order status after the shipping process is completed.
