Understanding the difference between serial generation
Understanding the difference between serial generation 'At Receipt' v/s. 'At Sales Order Issue'?
Here is an explanation of the serial generation flag
At inventory receipt:
Create and assign serial numbers when you receive the item. Thereafter, for any material transaction, you must provide a serial number for each unit.
At sales order issue:
Create and assign serial numbers when you issue (ship) the item against a sales order. If you select this option, serial numbers are required at ship confirm. If you receive an item on an RMA (return material authorization), you must specify the same serial numbers you created at sales order issue. All other material transactions for this item bypass serial number information.
No control:
Serial number control not established for this item. All material transactions involving this item bypass serial number information.
Predefined:
Assign predefined serial numbers when you receive the item. Thereafter, for any material transaction, you must provide a serial number for each unit.
What is the difference between On-account Receipt and Unapplied Receipt?
Unapplied payment:
The status of a payment for which you can identify the customer, but you have not applied or placed onaccount all or part of the payment. For example, you receive a check for $1200.00 and you apply it to an open debit item for$1000.00. The remaining $200.00 is unapplied until you either apply the payment to a debit item or place the amount On Account.
Account payment:
The status of a payment of which you apply all or part of its amount to a customer without reference to a specific debit item.
Examples of these are prepayments and deposits.

What is the difference between ATR,ATP,PTO,ATO and ATT
Available To Reserve (ATR)
The quantity of on-hand stock available for reservation. It is the current on-hand stock less any reserved stock.
Available To Transact (ATT)
Quantity on hand less all reservations for the item which may be transferred within or out of inventory
Assemble to Order – (ATO)
The product or Service is Assembled on the receipt of the Sales order. That is, the finished goods are created by combining with the other product parts only when an sales order is placed.Eg : Assume car manufacturing company, which has an assembling unit where all its individual components are either manufactured or purchased externally.
Pick to order- (PTO)
The product or services are picked from their locations using pick slip on receipt of the sales order.That is , the location and the product parts used to generate the finished goods are already predefined.Eg : Assume car manufacturing company, Which has certain parts manufactured in Germany, others in US and so on. So the total lead time would be to asses the time for bringing in these parts to the assembling unit.

How to copy orders with holds on the header
1. How does Oracle Order Management copy orders with holds on the header and lines to a new order?
Functionality within Order Management states that:
The copy function will only copy holds that exist on the header. It will not copy holds for the lines.
This is functionality per design.
2. Can the Copy Lines tab checkbox defaults be changed?
Per standard functionality there is no way to change the Copy Lines tab Checkbox defaults.
3. How are promised date and request date handled when copying an order?
Functionality within Order Management states that:
The copy function will only copy holds that exist on the header. It will not copy holds for the lines.
This is functionality per design.
2. Can the Copy Lines tab checkbox defaults be changed?
Per standard functionality there is no way to change the Copy Lines tab Checkbox defaults.
3. How are promised date and request date handled when copying an order?
- Promise Date is always cleared by COPY and will be re-defaulted based on the defaulting rule setup. Request Date will be cleared by COPY only if it is in PAST. If it is a future date then it will be retained on the copied order/line
Copy Booked Sales Order (Or Return) & Handle Split lines
1. Copy Booked Sales Order (Or Return) You can copy an order at any stage in the order flow including,But not limited to, Entered, booked, shipped, closed, and cancelled. ·
The copied orders or order lines start at the beginning of their assignedWorkflow.
· Order lines cannot be added to closed orders.
Note: You can determine whether to include/exclude fully cancelled lines when using the copy feature. o If fully cancelled lines are included, the lines are copied over with the original ordered quantity.
2. How does the Copy Order function handle split lines?
· You have an order with split lines.
· You copy the order.
· You notice the split lines from the original order have become new lines on the new order.
Example: Original order has the lines:
o 1.1 book 5
o 1.2 book 5
Copied order has the lines:
o 1.1 book 5
o 2.1 book 5
The copy process treats split lines as new lines; this is functionality. If you would like for split lines to be split lines in the copied order, an enhancement request would have to be made. How to copy orders with holds on the header and lines to a new order & handling request/promise date

6. When an order is copied using the Actions/Copy function, the order isCopied and the new order is updated with the correct PO number. However,when looking at the commercial invoice and packing slip, the PO numberis referencing the PO number from the original/copied order. Shouldn`tthe PO number be pulled from the new order number? If you are copying the order and changing the PO number in the order headerfield, but keeping existing lines, those existing lines are going to retainthe old po number from the copied order. When you change the PO number inthe header, the new po number will not cascade to any existing lines, itwill only be there for any new lines added to the order. Therefore, as your order progresses through pick release and ship confirm,the packing slip and commercial invoice are picking up the po number fromthe delivery lines and that is why it is reflecting the old PO number.This is intended functionality.
