Integrate and Extend Procurement Using REST Services
In this update, Oracle Fusion Cloud Procurement and Oracle Fusion Cloud Self Service Procurement deliver modified REST APIs to enable and simplify integration with external systems.
Set up your Oracle Cloud applications so you can order, price, receive, pick, pack, and ship an item that you enable with primary and secondary UOM tracking. You might need to order, transfer, outsource, or buy an item in a unit of measure that's different from the unit of measure that you use to price, invoice, and cost it.
For example, you might stock and sell meat in cases, but price it in pounds. Each case of meat has a different price because the total weight in pounds varies from one case to the next, but you need to give your buyers an estimated price for each case.
You can use the dual UOM solution to meet this requirement. It's an end-to-end, integrated solution that works across the Oracle Cloud applications and helps you:
- Simultaneously track an item in the primary UOM and secondary UOM throughout your order-to-cash process and procure-to-pay processes.
- Capture the actual weight of the item that you sell, transfer, or purchase, so you can accurately price, invoice, and cost the item.
- Provide a price estimate at the time of sale or purchase and maximize value according to the exact weight that you ship or receive.
After you opt in to the feature named Purchase Items That Are Priced in Their Secondary UOM, you can use the features described in this section.
Request Items That Are Priced in Their Secondary UOM
For items with dual units of measure, create requisitions in a UOM that matches how the item is packed and shipped, and is different from the UOM that you use to price and invoice the item. In 21D, you could only use the requisition import to create externally managed requisitions for items with dual UOMs. In this update, you can use the UI to create requisitions for items with dual UOMs and use the requisition import to create internally managed requisitions for items with dual UOMs.
Automatically Derive Ordered Quantity for Items Priced in Their Secondary UOM
Derive ordered quantity based on the entered purchase order secondary quantity for items priced in their secondary UOM.
Import Purchase Orders for Items Priced in Their Secondary UOM
Include items priced in their secondary UOM when you import purchase orders using file-based data import.
Generate Reports on Purchase Orders for Items Priced in Their Secondary UOM Using OTBI
Generate reports and inquiries on purchase orders for items priced in their secondary UOM.
Recover Approval Exceptions Using Action Details and Transaction Console
Review requisitions that are in pending approval status for exceptions on the Action Details page. You can share the exception details with your administrator, who can recover the stuck requisitions using the Transaction Console application.
