Manufacturing

Search for Work Definitions Based on Item Effectivity Using ADFDI

Search for and view work definition operation items based on their date effectivity using the Application Development Framework Desktop Integration (ADFdi) spreadsheet. You can restrict the search results to display past, current, and future, or current, or current and future items, effective as of the current date or a specified date.

NOTE: This feature was also made available in a monthly update of 19A and 19B.

Allow Circular Reference in Rework and Transform Work Definitions

Allow a circular reference or loop when defining a set of rework or transform work definitions with different names. With this setup, you can more flexibly meet customer demand by modeling production processes, where the rework item and one of its components are interchangeable, or a transform from item and transform to item are interchangeable.

Manage Manufacturing and Maintenance Work Order Statuses

Define work order statuses to support enterprise-specific business processes. You can define a new status by associating it with a predefined work order status, and renaming it. This helps you sort, manage, and report work orders more effectively.

View Production Quantities in Reporting UOM in Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence

Use the Actual Production Real Time subject area in Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence to report transactional quantities converted to the unit of measure (UOM) you select. This  allows you to derive a conversion factor between the transaction UOM and the UOM you select.

Quality Management

Navigate Directly to Quality Issues and Actions from Approval Notifications

Quickly navigate to the quality issue or quality action that requires review and approval using the object hyperlink in approval notifications.

Categorize Attachments on Quality Issues or Quality Actions

Assign attachment categories to quality issues or quality actions in the Setup and Maintenance work area to secure attachment access by category. When you add an attachment to an issue or action, you can then select the appropriate category to indicate the kind of attachment being added.  When you use the Save As action to create a new issue or action, attachment category details are carried over to the new issue or action along with the attachments.

Improve Usability and Security of the Relationship Rule Editor

Secure the relationship rules editor to prevent unauthorized access. You can create and edit rules only if you have the Manage privilege on the source object, and if related objects have a workflow assigned. 

Enhance Analytics with Additional Attributes in Quality Issues and Actions Real Time Subject Areas

Get more focused analyses and reporting insights for your quality issues and quality actions in Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) with additional attributes for date, text, and number.
