Objective

• Emphasize the changes in R12 that are improvements /

advancements from prior 11i versions based on my experiences.

• Discuss the benefit or business requirement that can be satisfied.

– Manufacturing modules (BOM, WIP, INV, PO/MRP)

– Order Management

– Service Contracts and Installed Base

– PIM (Product Information Management

Data Hub)

–

Why upgrade now?

• Why Not?

• More features and

functions

• Much Improvedreporting capability

• Improved Tech Stack

•Tables remain the same

• OPM using more

common functions

Balance Sheet by FG Product type

• Needed separate finished goods accounts so

balance sheet has values in different accounts

– Modems – Detergents

– Antennas – Household cleaners – Routers – Candles

• Also received items might be finished goods

– Distributors

– Spare Parts

No more logical sub inventories for account numbers!

Modules with very little change

• Engineering (same approvals)

• Capacity

• Work-In-Process

• PO Receiving

• Bills and Routings

“Makes upgrading easier”

Bill of Material

•Fixed component usage support

• Inverse component usage

• Update Material Control in Common Bills

(caused not using common bills)• Phantom Labor can be included in cost rollup!

11

Always wanted to define on a BOM that they

just need one or two with each Discrete Job.


15/81

Some Examples of Use

•Tooling

• Track pallets

• Setup kit, drawing

Inverse component usage

– .002 or 500

15


16/81

500 per Box

16


17/81

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

17


18/81

Common BOM process is the same

19/81

Locks all but the new fields

21/81

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 the labor did not rollup

25/81

Inventory

•

Material Status – Used for Lot control before QA Approval is

complete you can not reserve a lot.

• Defining Picking Rules

– Used to only be 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


26/81

• 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 26

Material Status


27/81

27

Here is one example


28/81

28

Examples

•

Control transactions without having to move inventory to anon-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).


29/81

•

You can create picking rules that enable you to sort picksbased 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.

29

Enhanced Picking Rules

32/81

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.

Adaptable User Interface

37

Quick Organizer Configurability

•

Study order entry flow and streamline (Masschange was missing and more in the past)

• Map to improve user experience

–

Many other tools are available – Defaulting rules

– Forms personalization

38


39/81

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 inthe 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. Thisdoesn'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.

Progress the line and a Discrete Job will be created.

View the Job number by going to the following action results

screen.

Reserving Discrete Jobs


47/81

Here are the reservations that you can view.

Reservation is to Discrete Job until the product is

reported as made.

Did a WIP Move complete transaction and the inventory

is now reserved.

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.

Linking Sales Order lines to Discrete Jobs

Service Contracts

• Improved Approvals

– AME and Portal Approval

– Renewals can skip approval

• Launchpad Improved, well as HTML available (New Search

•

Create Concurrent Program• Create Data Definition

– Update XML

•

Create Template – Upload RTF

• Add to Request Group

• Test Report (PDF or Excel)

Process Overview


75/81

75

Creating customized reports using XML Publisher can be divided into two phases:

Design Time and Runtime.

Design Time

1. Register the E-Business Suite report as a Data Definition in the Template Manager.

Create a Data Definition in the Template Manager for E-Business Suite reports that

you wish to customize using XML Publisher.

2. Design your template.

Your template files can be either in Rich Text Format (RTF) or Portable Document

Format (PDF).3. Register your Template in the Template Manager.

When you create the template in the Template Manager, you register and upload

your RTF or PDF template files. The Template must be assigned to the Data

Definition Code of the E-Business Suite report with which it will be merged.

Runtime

1. Set the concurrent program to generate XML.

2. Run the concurrent program using standard request submission.• If you are using the Submit Request form, the Layout field of the Upon

Completion region displays the currently selected template. To change the

template, template language, or output format select the Options button.

Here is what you get!
