Oracle Fusion SCM: Understanding Requisition-to-Receipt
Oracle Fusion Supply Chain Management (SCM) connects purchasing and inventory processes so teams can request, buy, receive, and track goods. A useful starting point is the requisition-to-receipt flow.
1. Requisition
A requisition records a request for goods or services. The request usually needs appropriate item or service details, quantities, delivery information, and charge or accounting information. Validation and approvals help confirm that the request is complete and authorized.
2. Purchase order
After the request is approved and reviewed, a buyer can create or process a purchase order according to the organization’s procurement setup. The order communicates agreed details to the supplier. Changes should be tracked through the approved change process rather than handled informally.
3. Receiving
When goods arrive, receiving records the delivery against the purchasing document. Depending on the organization’s rules, receipt, inspection, delivery, and put-away can be separate steps. Quantity or quality discrepancies should be recorded and resolved through the appropriate process.
4. Inventory visibility
Inventory structures and transaction records help teams understand where material is held and how it moves. Items, inventory organizations, subinventories, locators, and transaction types are important concepts to learn. Accurate master data supports consistent processing and reporting.
Common troubleshooting checks
- Confirm the requisition and purchase order statuses.
- Check approval history and any pending action.
- Compare ordered, shipped, and received quantities.
- Review item, supplier, organization, and delivery details.
- Check transaction history before retrying a failed action.
