Transactions
Oracle Inventory, with Oracle Order Management, Oracle Purchasing, and Oracle Work in Process, provides you with a complete set of transactions and reports for maintaining inventory control. This allows you to control the flow of material from the time you receive items to the time you ship finished goods to the customer.
Inventory transactions and on hand balance supports decimal precision to 5 digits after the decimal point. Oracle Work in Process supports decimal precision to 6 digits. Other Oracle Applications support different decimal precision. As a result of the decimal precision mismatch, transactions another Oracle Application passes may be rounded when processed by Inventory. If the transaction quantity is rounded to zero, Inventory does not process the transaction. It is therefore suggested that the base unit of measure for an item is set up such that transaction quantities in the base unit of measure not require greater than 5 digits of decimal precision.
Our suppliers check the
Our suppliers check the details on i supplier portal and i think that is the best possible solution.3
What you have asked for 'll require some bit of customization, there is as such no standard functionality and honestly speaking i don't think thats required at all.
Once you run the consumption advice all the details are available in i supplier and that is gr8
Consigned Inventory
Hello,
Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately it may be a long time before we implement iSupplier. I agree, it is the best solution. I guess for now, I'll perform some data mining on inventory transactions from the supplier consigned sub-inventory, sum the usage up by date and then generate a report (via Discoverer). It's a manual process but, I suppose that's as good as it gets for now.
Thanks to all for your help.

Consigned Inventory
Thank you for the reply - I do appreciate it.
I understand that a BPA will produce a statement that can be emailed to the supplier. The problem is, under consigned inventory conditions, the consumption advice report only simulates a blanket release - but it is not a true a blanket release. As a result (as far as I can determine) there is no notification that can be emailed.
Do you know of a notification that can be printed or emailed which is generated upon the run of the consumption advice process - or by any other means?

Anyone have a means of auto-notifying suppliers of weekly (consolidated) consumed part numbers and quantities for consigned materials? It appears that the consumption advice routine sends no supplier notification even though it simulates a blanket release.

That is the standard function
That is the standard function and i guess as desired by all the business.
You need to send these BPA release informations to the supplier by following the method (be it EDI, Mail or what ever) that you use to send all the normal POs( Standard, or releases)
