What is an Item
An item is a part or services you
– Purchase
– Sell
– Plan
– Manufacture
– Stock
– Distributive
– Prototypes

Defining Items
Use the Master item window to define and update items and item
attributes

Item Master Organization
• An item master Organization is a logical entity that you use to
define items
Defining Item Master Organization
Child Organization DM1 Child Organization DM2
Master Organization DMM

Item Attributes
• Item attributes are the collection of information about an item.

Item Status
• When you define an item you use the
item status attribute to assign an item
status

Unit of Measure Attributes
Primary Unit of Measure
– Stocking unit of measure any necessary conversions are
on this unit of measure
Tracking
– The System can track the Item in either the primary only
or the primary and secondary Unit of Measure.
– If the system tracks the item by the primary and
secondary unit of measure this is called the dual unit of
measure control.

Unit of Measure Attributes (Continued)
Defaulting
– Attribute controls the behavior of dual unit of measure
controlled Item
Fixed
– System stores inventory in both the primary and
secondary units of measure
– Enter an item quantity in one unit of measure, and the
system converts the quantity to the secondary units of
measure and displays both the quantities.

Item Statuses and Attributes
• Item attributes describe an item
• Status attributes are item attributes that enable the key functionality of an
item.
• Status Attributes and Functionality

Item attribute relationships
When you define an item , Oracle Inventory enforces particular
relationships between some of the item attributes
– Required attributes
– Interdependent attributes
– Updateable attributes
– Control level dependencies

Item Templates
An item template can be assigned when you create or
update an inventory item. The template contains
values for any number of item attributes
Enabling attributes in a template
• Enable item attributes and assign them values in each
template that you create
• When you apply template to an item,Oracle Inventory
updates only the attributes that are enabled for the
template
• Define templates with relatively few attributes enabled
because you can apply more than one template to define
one item

Organization Assignment and
Organization Items

Control levels
Master Level Controls
– An attribute you maintain at the master level has identical
values across all organizations that use the Item
Organization-Level Control
– An attribute you maintain at the Organization level may
have different values for each organization that uses it.
Attribute Control
– Some attributes can be maintained at only the master
level or organization level. Units of measure are controlled
at the Master level. If you are using multiple
organizations, then you should maintain min-max
planning at the organization level.

Revision Control
• A revision is a particular version of an item, bill
of material, or routing.
• Use the Revision control to track the item
quantities by item revision and specify a revision
for each material transaction.
• Enable revision control for items you must track
version changes that are significant enough to
track but do not affect the function and feature
of the item.
• You cannot change the revision control item
attributes when an item has quantity on hand

Revision Control (Continued)
• If revision control is controlled at the master
item level, the check for on-hand quantity is
against the sum of on-hand – quantity in all child
organizations.
• If revision control is controlled at the
organization level, the check for on-hand
quantity is against the sum of on-hand quantity
in that organization
• Use letters, numbers, and characters such as A,
A1, 2B, and so on to define revision numbers

Item Relationship
• You can define relationship between items. This allows you to search for
items through these relationships.

Categories and Category Sets
• A category is a logical classification of items
that have similar characteristics
• A Category set is a distinct grouping scheme
and consists of categories
• You can define an unlimited number of
categories and group subsets of your
categories into category sets
• A category can belong to multiple category
sets

Categories and Category Sets (Continued)
When you install Oracle Inventory, you must
assign default Category set
• Inventory
• Purchasing
• Order Management
• Costing
• Engineering and Planning

Item Catalog
Item catalogs enable you to add descriptive information to items and to
partition your Item Master into groups of items that share common
characteristics

Deletion Constraints and Deletion
Groups
• If you want to enforce specific business rules and add custom checks
before you can delete an item, you must define the delete constraints to
supplement the standard predefined item deletion conditions
• You can delete items that have incorrect attribute information.
– For Example, if you make a mistake in entering an Item number, use the
Deletion Groups window to delete the item
• If you decided to purge the item immediately after defining it and before
using it anywhere in the system you will be able to delete it.

Deletion Constraints
• If you want to enforce specific business rules and add custom checks
before Oracle Inventory allows deletion of an item, you must define item
deletion constraints to supplement the standard predefined item deletion
conditions
• The major use of item deletion is to correct the data entry errors
– For example, if you defined an item with the
wrong primary unit of measure,you can use the
delete function to remove the item from your
database. If you decide to purge the item
immediately after incorrectly defining it and
before using it anywhere in the system, you will be
able to delete it.

Deletion Constraints (Continued)
• After an item is used, for example in an assembly Oracle Inventory
automatically creates references to it.
• Oracle Inventory checks all possible references to an item and does not
allow it to be deleted until every reference is removed

Lot Control
– A lot can represent a quantity of an
item that shares the same
specifications.
– You can divide each lot into child lots
that can reflect whatever
characteristics you choose for items
within a lot.

Lot Control (Continued)
– When you allocate stock for production,
you can allocate specific lots to a
production batch based on the potency,
age or other item characteristics.
– Items under lot control assign lot numbers
to each receipt, and thereafter reference
the same lots each time you perform
material transactions, enables to have
tight control over lot controlled items in
your inventory.

Child Lots
Child lot is a subdivision of a lot that you can use if you
produce a lot over a period of time, but still want to group
the material as a single lot.

Setting up Lot Control
(Organization Parameters)
– Lot Control uniqueness
– Lot generation
– Child lot generation control

Managing Lots
Assigning lots
– Pre assign on lot master
– Assign during transactions
– Add quantities to existing lots
– Split Inventory receipts into several lots
• Maintain Lots
– Update lot expiration date
– View lot information
– View Supplier lot information

Expired Lots
An expired lot
– Is not considered as on hand supply when you are
performing Min-Max, reorder point,or MRP planning
calculations
– Cannot be reserved for a date beyond the expiration date
– Can be transacted and is included in on-hand quantities
– Included in all inquiries and reports, including inventory
valuation reports
– Included in a cycle count and count entry and adjustments
are allowed
– Included in a physical inventory and tag entry and
adjustments are allowed

Disabled Lots
Disabled Lot
• Is included in available to transact, available to
promise, and to available to reserve calculations
• Is included as on-hand supply when you are performing
min-max,reorder point or MRP planning calculations
• Is included as on-hand in all inquiries and reports,
including inventory valuation reports.
• Can be transacted with Inventory functions and the
Transactions Open Interface
• Can be reserved

Lot Number Purging
– You can purge all lot transaction information from
your current organization. The transactions must
be in closed accounting period.
– Purging lot transactions eliminates information
used in lot reports and inquiries.

Cycle Counts Under Lot Control
– The cycle count listing includes the lot numbers of
the items to be cycle counted
– Assign lot numbers to all items under lot control
for which you enter counts
– If there is a difference between cycle count
quantity and the system on-hand quantity. Oracle
Inventory adjusts the item quantity in that lot.

Physical Inventory Under Lot Control
– Oracle Inventory includes the lot numbers of the
items to count in your physical inventory when
generating Inventory tags.
– You must assign lot numbers to all items under lot
control for which you enter counts in the Physical
Inventory Tags count window
– If there is a difference between cycle count
quantity and the system on-hand quantity. Oracle
Inventory adjusts the item quantity in that lot.

Serial Number Overview
– Serial number is an alphanumeric piece of
information you assign to an individual unit of an
item.
– Serial number control is a system technique for
enforcing the use of serial numbers during a
material transactions

Generating Serial Numbers
– Many serial numbers as you want for any item
under serial number If you specify No Control as
the serial control type then the system does not
enforce serial number control.
– If you specify Predefined as the serial number
control type, then you must predefine serial
numbers for that item.
– If you select At Inventory receipt or At sales order
issue, then you can optionally predefine serial
numbers for the item.

Generating Serial Numbers (Continued)
– Oracle Inventory uses the starting serial number
prefix and the starting serial number you specify
in the Item window to load the number of
predefined serial numbers you request. You can
load as control.
– The process of generating serial numbers is done
through a concurrent report.
– The process does not assign numbers to units in
inventory, it simply reserves specify serial
numbers for an item for later use.

Maintaining Serial Numbers
– You can use serial numbers window to update
supplier information associated with your serial
numbers
– You can view all the serial numbers you created in
your current organization.
– You can view location and status information and
update supplier information associated with your
serialized units

Lot Genealogy
– Lot genealogy tracks the relationship between lots
and provides lot traceability that results from
inventory transactions, includes all lot splits,
merges, and translations.
– Serial genealogy tracks the transaction and
multilevel composition history of any serial
controlled item from receipt to customer sale.

issue.

Material Status
Material Status enables you to control the
movement and usage of material for portions of
your inventory.

Material Status Control
– Material Status controls the transactions and
planning actions that can be performed on an
Item.
– Material Status brings in a granular level
control, which is very effective
– It can be assigned to a specific Sub inventory,
Locator, Lot Number and Serial Number.

Overview of Inventory Planning
Oracle Inventory provides four types of
Replenishment Methods:
» Min-Max Planning
» Reorder-point Planning
» Kanban Replenishment Planning
» Replenishment Counting

Overview of Inventory Forecasting
Inventory Forecasting is the process of extrapolating
the expected demand of an item over a number of
periods in the future

Forecast setup and Maintenance

Inventory Replenishment Methods

Replenishment Methods Levels
• Inventory Replenishment can be performed at Organization or Sub
inventory Level
Planning Method Organization Sub inventory
Reorder-point Yes No
Min-Max Yes Yes
Replenishment Counting No Yes
Kanban N/A N/A

Reorder Point Planning
– Reorder Point Planning as the name suggests
places an Order when the Inventory level falls
to a predefined Re-order Point.
– The Order Size is equal to the EOQ.
– Reorder Point Planning is recommended for
those items, which are not very expensive.

Reorder Point Planning(Continued)

Uses of Reorder Point Planning

Min- Max Planning
– In this method, the Inventory is planned based on user
defined Minimum and Maximum Quantity.
– Inventory is replenished to the Maximum level
whenever the Stock Level falls to the Minimum level.
– It can be applied to All or selected Items.
– It is a simple method used for low value item which
doesn’t need strict monitoring.

Kanban Planning
– Kanban is a Pull based replenishment in
Manufacturing System.
– It leads to shorter lead times and reduced inventory.
– Kanban is typically applied to items with relatively
constant demand and medium-to-high production
volume.
– Kanban represents replenishment signals that are
usually manual and highly visible like Color-coded
Cards, Light and Empty bin.

Types of Kanban Replenishment
– Inter Org: Replenishes by creating Internal
Requisition
– Intra Org: Triggers Material movement from a
subinventory in the same Organization.
– Production: Creates or releases a Production
Job
– Supplier: Creates a Purchase Requisition.

Kanban Elements
– Pull Sequence is a group of information that defines a
Kanban location, source information, and planning
parameters for an Item.
– Kanban chain is a series of Pull Sequences, which defines
the replenishment network. E.g.: Assembly to Stores.
– Kanban Cards are created for Item, Subinventory and
Locator (optional) and uniquely identified by a Kanban
number
– Replenishable Cards can be created automatically through
Pull Sequence or manually through ‘Kanban Cards’
window.

Replenishment Counting
– Replenishment Counting is a method of ordering
Items for non-Tracked Subinventory.
– Non-Tracked subinventories are expense
subinventory, for which On-hand balances are not
maintained.
– Whenever an Item is moved into Expense
Subinventory, the Expense account is charged and
the quantity is discarded.
– Items are replenished in Non-Tracked Subinventory
by periodically counting the items physically.

Profile Options
INV: fill Kanban on Partial Move Order
Receipt
Determine whether or not a
Kanban card can be
considered filled if the move
order created to fill it was only
partially transferred.
INV: Replenishment Move Order

inventory Replenishment
requisition created by the
replenishment processor.
INV:Replenishment Count Line Failure Indicates the action taken
when a failure is detected while
processing a replenishment
count line
INV: Minmax Reorder Approval Indicates the status of
requisitions created by the min-
max planning report
