1.

Order Entry
This is first stage, When the order is entered in the system, it creates a recor
d in order headers and Order Lines table.
Enter header details: Once you enter details on the order header and save it or
move it to lines, record goes to one table OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL FLOW_STATUS_CODE
= ENTERED, BOOKED_FLAG = N), Primary key=HEADER_ID
No record exist in any other table for this order till now.
Enter Line details for this order: Enter different item numbers, quantity and ot
her details in line tab. When the record gets saved, it goes to one table. Order
header details will be linked with line details by order HEADER_ID. OE_ORDER_LI
NES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE = ENTERED, BOOKED_FLAG = N, OPEN_FLAG = Y) Primary key
= LINE_ID
2.Order Booking
This is next stage, when Order is booked then the Flow status changed from Enter
ed to Booked. At this stage, these below table get affected.
OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE as BOOKED, BOOKED_FLAG updated to Y)
OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE as AWAITING_SHIPPING, BOOKED_FLAG updated Y
)
WSH_DELIVERY_DETAILS (DELIVERY_DETAIL_ID is assigned here, RELEASED_STATUS R ready
to release, LINE_ID comes as SOURCE_LINE_ID)
WSH_DELIVERY_ASSIGNMENTS (DELIVERY_ASSIGNMENT_ID is assigned for DELIVERY_DETAIL
_ID present in WSH_DELIVERY_DETAILS, DELIVERY_ID remains blank till this stage)
*In shipping transaction form order status remains "Ready to Release".
At the same time, Demand interface program runs in background And insert into in
ventory tables MTL_DEMAND, here LINE_ID come as a reference in DEMAND_SOURCE_LIN
E
3. Reservation
This step is required for doing reservations SCHEDULE ORDER PROGRAM runs in the
background and quantities are reserved. Once this program get successfully get c
ompleted, the MTL_DEMAND and MTL_RESERVATIONS table get updated. LINE_ID gets up
dated in DEMAND_SOURCE_LINE_ID in both the tables.
4. Pick Release
Pick Release is the process of putting reservation on on-hand quantity available
in the inventory and pick them for particular sales order.
Pick release can be done from 'Release Sales Order' form or 'Pick release SRS' p
rogram can be scheduled in background. In both of these cases all lines of the o
rder gets pick released depending on the Picking rule used. If specific line/s n
eeds to be pick release it can be done from 'Shipping Transaction form. For this
case Pick Release is done from 'Release Sales Order' form with Pick Confirm=NO.
Once pick release is done these are the tables get affected:
If step 3 is not done then MTL_RESERVATIONS gets updated now.
WSH_NEW_DELIVERIES (one record gets inserted with SOURCE_HEADER_ID= order header
ID, STATUS_CODE=OP =>open)
WSH_DELIVERY_ASSIGNMENTS (DELIVERY_ID gets assigned which comes from WSH_NEW_DEL
IVERIES)
WSH_DELIVERY_DETAILS (RELEASED_STATUS S
submitted for release )
MTL_TXN_REQUEST_HEADERS
MTL_TXN_REQUEST_LINES (LINE_ID goes as TXN_SOURCE_LINE_ID)
(move order tables. Here request is generated to move item from Source (RM or FG
) sub-inventory to staging sub-inventory)
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS_TEMP (link to above tables through MOVE_ORDER_HEADER_I

D/LINE_ID, this table holds the record temporally)

MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS_TEMP (if item is serial controlled at receipt then record goe
s in this table)
MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS (enter value in GROUP_MARK_ID )
*In shipping transaction form order status remains "Released to Warehouse" and a
ll the material still remains in source sub-inventory. We need to do Move Order
Transaction for this order. Till this no material transaction has been posted to
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS
5.Pick Confirm/ Move Order Transaction
Items are transferred from source sub-inventory to staging Sub-inventory. Here m
aterial transaction occurs.
Order line status becomes 'Picked' on Sales Order and 'Staged/Pick Confirmed' on
Shipping Transaction Form.
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS_TEMP (Record gets deleted from here and gets posted to
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS)
OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE PICKED )
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS (LINE_ID goes as TRX_SOURCE_LINE_ID)
MTL_TRANSACTION_ACCOUNTS
WSH_DELIVERY_DETAILS (RELEASED_STATUS becomes Y => Released )
WSH_DELIVERY_ASSIGNMENTS
MTL_ONHAND_QUANTITIES
MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS_TEMP (record gets inserted after putting details for the item
which are serial controlled at 'Sales order issue')
MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS (record gets inserted after putting details for the item whic
h are serial controlled at 'Sales order issue')
* This step can be eliminated if we set Pick Confirm=YES at the time of Pick Rel
ease

6.Ship Confirm
Here ship confirm interface program runs in background. Data removed from WSH_NE
W_DELIVERIES.
The items on the delivery gets shipped to customer at this stage.
OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE shipped )
WSH_DELIVERY_DETAILS (RELEASED_STATUS C
Shipped , SERIAL_NUMBER if quantity is ONE)
WSH_SERIAL_NUMBERS (records gets inserted with the DELIVERY_DETAIL_ID reference,
only in case of shipped quantity is two or more)
MTL_TRANSACTION_INTERFACE
MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS (linked through Transaction source header id)
MTL_TRANSACTION_ACCOUNTS
Data deleted from MTL_DEMAND, MTL_RESERVATIONS
Item deducted from MTL_ONHAND_QUANTITIES
MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS_TEMP (records gets deleted from this table)
MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS (Serial number stauts gets updated CURRENT_STATUS=4 , 'Issued
out of store')
7.Enter Invoice
After shipping the order the order lines gets eligible to get transfered to RA_I
NTERFACE_LINES_ALL. Workflow background engine picks those records and post it t
o RA_INTERFACE_LINES_ALL. This is also called Receivables interface, that mean i
nformation moved to accounting area for invoicing details. Invoicing workflow ac
tivity transfers shipped item information to Oracle Receivables. At the same tim

e records also goes in the table RA_INTERFACE_SALESCREDITS_ALL which hold detail

s of sales credit for the particular order.
RA_INTERFACE_LINES_ALL (interface table into which the data is transferred from
order management) Then Autoinvoice program imports data from this table which ge
t affected into this stage are receivables base table. At the same time records
goes in
RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_ALL (CUST_TRX_ID is primary key to link it to TRX_LINES table an
d TRX_NUMBER is the invoice number)
RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES_ALL (LINE_ATTRIBUTE_1 and LINE_ATTRIBUTE_6 are linked to o
rder number and LINE_ID of the orders)
8.Complete Line
In this stage order line level table get updated with Flow status and open flag.
OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE shipped , OPEN_FLAG N )
9.Close Order
This is last step of Order Processing. In this stage only OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL tab
le get updated. These are the table get affected in this step.
OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (FLOW_STATUS_CODE closed , OPEN_FLAG N )
OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL
