To use the Manage and Secure Manufacturers Efficiently feature, you must opt in to its parent feature: Update Manufacturer Management. If you’ve already opted in to this parent feature, then you don’t have to opt in again.

If you opt in to Update Manufacturer Management and use granular privileges, then you must add the following data security policies to your role to have access to the manufacturer security tab:

• EGP_TRADING_PARTNER_ITEMS
• EGP_PRIVATE_TRADING_PARTNERS

The procedure for adding a data security policy is the same for both EGP_TRADING_PARTNER_ITEMS and EGP_PRIVATE_TRADING_PARTNERS, except for the change in the value of the attribute Parameter1.

Here’s how you create the data security policies:

1. Sign in to Security Console.

2. Search for the role. Click Actions > Edit Role.

3. On the Edit Role page, click Data Security Policies.

4. In the Create Data Security Policy dialog box, enter the following:

Selected Product Development Bug Fixes in This Update

This update includes some bug fixes that can change the way Oracle Product Development works. This isn't a full list of all the bug fixes in this update. This list includes the bug fixes that can cause a noticeable change in application behavior.

Comparing Structures

When you used the Compare Structures feature, duplicate items sometimes appeared on the first item structure and for structures with components beyond the first level. The issue was intermittent. The comparison result was misaligned vertically (due to the duplicate items).

The intermittent issue related to duplicate items on the first item structure is fixed, which resolves the vertical misalignment issue.

Oracle reference: 33872118

Validation Rules Affecting Structure Page Display

When a validation rule related to structure creation failed, a corresponding error message appeared. After you closed the error message and the Create Structure window, the page didn't respond, so you had to refresh the page.

The issue is fixed. You don't need to refresh the page after you close the error message and Create Structure window.

Product Hub

Improved Selection of Categories Within a Hierarchy for Item Category Assignments

You can easily assign categories to items using the improved way of selecting categories within a hierarchy. When you type the name of the catalog or category you want to assign, it automatically matches the name with the available catalog and category names and displays them as suggestions. Category suggestion also includes the catalog name to help you know the catalog for the category.

When you select a category from the displayed suggestions, the catalog and category names are populated in the respective fields in the user interface.

If you select a catalog from the displayed suggestions, a window shows a list of categories and their paths within the hierarchy for the selected catalog. The hierarchy path allows you to identify the correct category based on the position of the category within the hierarchy. After you select a category from this list and click OK, the catalog and category names are populated in the respective fields in the user interface.

If the suggestions doesn’t show the required category, you can use the Search icon to select or search a catalog and display the categories for the selected catalog.

Enter a Catalog or Category Name to View the Suggestions

Select a Category From the Catalog Hierarchy

This feature provides easier visibility of the categories and helps to determine the correct category to assign to the item.

Steps to Enable

Use the Opt In UI to enable this feature. For instructions, refer to the Optional Uptake of New Features section of this document.

Offering: Product Management  No Longer Optional From: Update 23C

Tips And Considerations

When searching for categories within a catalog with a single level of hierarchy, the suggestions provide an easy way to find the category by typing all or part of the category name.

Duplicate category names are displayed in the suggestions along with the catalog name. Duplicate category names in catalogs with a multilevel hierarchy are displayed with their hierarchy path.

Optimize Extraction of Item Extensible Flexfields for Business Intelligence

You can extract the extensible flexfield data for items, item revisions, and item supplier associations in bulk using the Business Intelligence Cloud Connector (BICC). BI view objects are available for each extensible flexfield context. You can use the respective view object and set up the data store for extraction. You can perform full extraction or incremental extraction of data.

The following image shows the BICC data store setup for extracting extensible flexfield data using BI view object.

BICC Console

This feature provides an alternate method to extract the product data in bulk and load it into the designated external storage areas. It may better suit your integration requirements to communicate with downstream systems.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

After making changes to the extensible flexfield’s metadata, you must deploy the extensible flexfields offline before extracting the data using BICC.

If you've secured the View access of the extensible flexfield context with a privilege, you must grant this privilege to the FUSION_APPS_OBIA_BIEE_APPID user by using the Manage Item Classes task in the Setup and Maintenance work area and then navigating to the Security tab on the Edit Item Class page. After granting this privilege, the extensible flexfield data can be extracted using BICC.

Generate and Assign GTINs to Items Automatically Using Rules

You can automatically generate GTINs and create GTIN relationships using item rules. Assignment rules support a new function that creates GTIN relationships automatically. You can leverage the existing capabilities of item rules such as call a web service, automatically sequence function, fetch values from your own objects or item attributes, and so on to generate the GTIN, and then the assignment rule automatically creates the GTIN relationships.

The following image shows an assignment rule that generates and assigns GTIN to items.

GTIN Assignment Rule

This feature benefits your business by:

• Increasing efficiency and decreasing manual GTIN relationship assignment.
• Expanding the governance processes across your enterprise to include GTIN creation. 

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

The syntax of the function for assigning GTIN is: 

assignGTIN (<GTIN String/Expression>, <UOM Code>, <Party Type>, <Registry ID>)

You can use a rule function that generates a GTIN as the first argument. You must then pass the UOM code as the second argument that will be used as the GTIN UOM. Party type and registry ID are optional arguments. You can pass these values to create party GTIN relationships.

This GTIN expression can be a concatenation of multiple values.

The following screenshot shows a rule with the GTIN check digit function.

GTIN Check Digit Function

The capability to calculate the GTIN check digit benefits your business by giving you the ability to generate a GTIN for your product instead of relying on an external system to supply a GTIN.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

You can also pass an expression in the GTIN check digit function. This expression must return a 7, 11, 12, or 13-digit number.

Support Kit Items on Transfer Orders

In many industries, companies need the flexibility to store individual components in their warehouses while providing employees the option to request those distinct components individually or to request them as a group of multiple components that represent a kit.

For instance, your maintenance facility performs scheduled preventative maintenance and immediate emergency repairs. Because scheduled maintenance is planned at specific intervals, your mechanics have specific sets of components they always order for the various maintenance milestones. Oftentimes these standard scheduled maintenance kits can have over 75 or 100 components. On the other hand, for emergency repairs, your mechanics need to order only the exact repair parts required to get the piece of equipment up and running properly. While some of these components are likely present in one of the scheduled maintenance kits, not all components of the kits are required. So ordering a kit for an emergency repair that only requires a few components isn't necessary.

To provide this flexibility when conducting internal transfers, you can now request pick-to-order kits on a transfer order instead of requesting each component individually. After defining the kit parent item and associating the component structure in Oracle Fusion Cloud Product Hub, you use the kit parent item name when requesting the transfer order. Upon creation, Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management automatically explodes the kit components onto the transfer order so that picking, shipping, and receiving still occur at the component level.

This feature lets your employees more efficiently create an internal transfer for a standard set of components that are stocked individually, but often ordered together as a kit.

Watch a Demo.

Steps to Enable

Define kit items in the Product Information Management work area. The following are the required attribute settings for a kit item in the source organization.

1. Define the kit item with these Inventory, Sales, Order Management, and Manufacturing item attribute settings.

• Stocked = No
• Transaction Enabled = No
• Internally Transferable = Yes
• Shippable = No
• Transfer order enabled = Yes
• Pick components = Yes

Example - Inventory Kit Item Attributes

2. Create kit item structure.

An item structure is required for kit items. You must use the Primary item structure name when creating a new item structure for a kit item.

This example of a kit item structure shows the kit item and its shippable components.

Kit Item Structure

3. Associate the kit item to the inventory organizations.

Kit Item Organization Association

Tips And Considerations

In order to assure that the kit component items are shipped together (in a kit), the shipment lines are automatically stamped with a shipment set number at the time of the transfer order creation. The business intention of the kit item is that full quantities of all kit components within the kit item, ship at the same time. But there are business conditions that require the shipment set to be broken. The Shipment Set Behavior shipping parameter controls the ability to break a shipment set. You can only ship less than the requested quantities for the kit components if the Shipment Set Behavior parameter is Information or Warning. 

Consider the settings of the Shipment Set Behavior parameter to determine the level of control you want when picking and shipping kit components.

• When you choose Error as the Shipment Set Behavior, if any quantity changes are made to the shipment line, an error message displays at ship confirmation and the transaction stops. This is true for kit components as well as standard items.

• When you choose Warning as the Shipment Set Behavior, if any quantity changes are made to the shipment line, a warning message displays at ship confirmation and you have a choice to continue or stop the transaction. This is true for kit components as well as standard items.

• When you choose Information as the Shipment Set Behavior, if any quantity changes are made to the shipment line, the change is accepted and the transaction processes without issue. This is true for kit components as well as standard items.

Shipping Parameter - Shipment Set Behavior

Also consider enabling the Enforce shipment sets shipping parameter. With this parameter enabled, the system assures that all lines in a shipment set are picked together. This isn't a required setup, but it has proven beneficial to companies that want to keep the shipment set intact from picking through shipping.

Shipping Parameter - Enforce Shipment Sets

NOTE: Before update 23A, you couldn't set the Pick Component and Internally Transferable attribute values to Yes when the Shippable and Stocked attribute values were set to No for an item. After update 23A, you can set the attribute values accordingly so you can add your kit items to transfer orders.

Key Resources

• Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM: Using Inventory Management guide, available on the Oracle Help Center.

Access Requirements

You have a couple of options for giving people access to this feature, depending on whether you're assigning them to predefined job roles or your own configured job roles.

• Users who are assigned any of these predefined job roles are automatically able to access this feature:
  • Warehouse Manager (ORA_INV_WAREHOUSE_MANAGER_JOB)
  • Shipping Manager (ORA_WSH_SHIPPING_MANAGER_JOB)

• Users who are assigned configured job roles that contain these privileges are able to access this feature:
  • Create Supply Request (DOS_CREATE_SUPPLY_REQUEST)
  • Manage Inventory Transfer Order (INV_MANAGE_INVENTORY_TRANSFER_ORDER)
  • Manage Shipments and Shipment Lines (WSH_MANAGE_SHIPMENT_AND_SHIPMENT_LINE)

Create UOM Conversion Data for All Items

Every item has a primary unit of measure, and may be ordered or fulfilled in units of measure other than the primary unit, so long as there are existing standard or item-specific conversions.  A standard conversion between units is applicable to all items, such as 1 Liter = 1000 Milliliters.  An item-specific conversion between units may introduce a relationship between two classes, such as Volume and Quantity.  Or, it may override a standard conversion to reflect the unique packaging of an item, such as 1 Box = 25 Each. The conversion for every item that has no item-specific data is limited to the same set of standard conversions associated with its primary unit of measure.  If an item has one or more item-specific conversions, it often defines additional units that the item may be transacted in, and may override the standard conversions. 

This set of unique conversion data for all items is now stored to better support analytics.

Steps to Enable

Use the Opt In UI to enable this feature. For instructions, refer to the Optional Uptake of New Features section of this document.

Offering: Product Management  No Longer Optional From: Update 23C

Use UOM Names in Packaging Strings

You may now choose to display the packaging string that is associated with an Item using the unit of measure names instead of the briefer short code for the unit of measure. For example, the packaging string EA 100 / BX 20 / CS might represent 100 of an item in a box, with 20 boxes in a case. By using the names, the packaging string might instead read Each 100 / Box 20 / Case. 

Unit of measure short codes are limited to three characters and might not be clear which unit of measure they represent.. You might prefer to show the packaging string using the more identifiable names of the participating units of measure.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Selected Product Hub Bug Fixes in This Update

This update includes some bug fixes that can change the way Oracle Product Hub works. This isn't a full list of all the bug fixes in this update. This list includes the bug fixes that can cause a noticeable change in application behavior.

Item Template Availability in New Item Requests and Change Orders

Starting in update 22D, you could apply a template when assigning an item to a child organization (either an inventory organization or an item organization). You can now apply a template when assigning an item to a child organization (either an inventory organization or an item organization) during the definition step of a new item request, and also as part of a change order.

Oracle reference: 34302547

Updated Constraint Checks for the Manage Delete Groups Task 

Before update 23A, if you used the Manage Delete Groups task to submit a group of items for deletion, the task ran a series of constraint checks. One of those checks was to make sure that the items in the delete group aren't present in marketing objects. After you update to 23A, this specific check won't be performed. However, other constraint checks are still performed before the item is deleted.

Autocomplete Changes Efficiently to Ensure Change Workflow Resiliency

Previously, you had to manually select the Autocomplete on Cancel check box in change order type setup to ensure that change orders move to completion when the last change line is canceled.

To make your change workflow more resilient, this is now the default setting and is applied to both new and in-progress change orders.

Default Setting is Autocomplete on Cancel

With this update, you can decrease the number of clicks involved in creating a change order type, and increase control over the final status of both new and in-progress change orders.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

• For a change order to move to the completed status on the cancellation of the last change line, at least one change line should have moved to the completed status.

• If all the change lines in a change order have moved to the canceled status, then on the cancellation of the last change line the change order would stay in canceled state.

• Prior to this update, the Autocomplete on Cancel setting was applicable only to newly created change orders.

• Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM: Using Product Development guide, available on the Oracle Help Center.

Access Requirements

You have a couple of options for giving people access to this feature, depending on whether you're assigning them predefined job roles or your own configured job roles.

• Users who are assigned any of these predefined job roles can work on change orders:
  • Product Manager (ORA_EGP_PRODUCT_MANAGER_JOB)
  • Product Data Steward (ORA_EGI_PRODUCT_DATA_STEWARD_JOB)

• Users who are assigned a configured job role that contains these privileges can access this feature:
  • Monitor Product Management Workflow Objects (ACA_MONITOR_PRODUCT_MANAGEMENT_WORFLOW_OBJECTS_PRIV) and 
  • Manage Change Orders (ACA_MANAGE_CHANGE_ORDERS_PRIV)

Analyze Where Items Are Used As Substitutes

You can now identify where an item is used as a substitute when using the where used query on the first level of the item structure. A new search filter Include Substitute Components and a new column Substitute For have been added to the item's Where Used report in the Product Development and Product Information Management work areas to help you view the components in which the item is marked as a substitute. You can also enable substitute component search by default using a new profile option.

Search Filters and Substitute for Column in Product Development UI

Search Filters and Substitute For Column in Product Information Management UI

When you generate the Where Used report in OTBI, you can choose to include substitute components across all levels. Here’s the list of subject areas and the corresponding attributes:

• Product Management- Where Used Real Time
  • Component Substituted for
  • Component Used as Substitute

• Where Used Quick Preview
  • Where Used Component Substituted for
  • Where Used Component Used as Substitute

Where Used Item Attributes in OTBI

Where Used Report in OTBI

Additionally, the change order details report is enhanced to include substitute component attributes and shows the affected objects in descending order of the sequence number.

Here are the substitute component attributes:

• Primary UOM
• Enforce Integer Requirement
• Priority
• Global descriptive flexfields

Substitute Component Attributes in Change Order Details Report

Get a more holistic view of where an item component was used as a substitute and which components it substituted. Your product engineers will now have the flexibility to review this and additional substitute information on an ad hoc basis through a UI search or through preconfigured reports.

Steps to Enable

To display the new substitute component attributes in the OTBI report and to enable the Include Substitute Components field in the UI by default, you must set the value of the profile option Include Substitutes in Item Where Used Data to Yes. Here’s how:

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, use the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.
2. In the Profile Display Name field, search for Include Substitutes in Item Where Used Data.
3. In the Profile Value column, set the profile value to Yes.
4. Save your changes.

Tips And Considerations

• This feature is supported only for the first level structure in the UI and all levels in the OTBI report.

• The Substitute For column in the UI is shown only if the Include Substitute Components search filter is selected.

• When you select Include Substitute Components, the Where Used results are restricted to the master organization and primary structure in Product Development, and to the context item's organization in Product Information Management.

• In Product Information Management, you can perform a search on primary, alternate, or all structures based on the search filters.

• The change order details report doesn't display redlines for substitute components.

Use Audit Reports to Govern User Activities on Attachments

In Oracle Product Hub and Oracle Product Development, users can access attachments associated with business objects, such as Items and Structures, based on the access privileges. Users can download or check out the attachment. They can also check in a new version of the attachment or choose to cancel check out without checking in a new version.

With this feature, you can audit the user activities such as Attachment Check In, Attachment Checkout, Attachment Cancel Checkout, and Attachment Download on an attachment if the attachment business object (for example, Items Attachments) has been enabled for auditing using the Manage Audit Policy UI available in the Setup and Maintenance work area.

NOTE: Auditing the user activities on the attachment business object is in addition to auditing the existing attachment maintenance activities such as insert, update, and delete.

To access the Audit Reports, go to Navigator > Tools > Audit Reports. The following screenshot shows the various event types for the Item Attachments business object based on which you can generate an audit report.

Audit Reports

This feature is enabled for the following business objects:

• Item Attachments
• Item Revision Attachments
• Change Object Attachments
• Structure Attachments
• Catalog Attachments
• Category Attachments

This feature is enabled for the following types of attachments:

• Text
• File
• Repository File/Folder

This feature enhances governance and oversight by monitoring user activities on attachments.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

• When an attachment is added, the audit report considers it as Insert event and Attachment Check-In event.

• The events are audited only after a business object is enabled for audit.

• Audit details for the user activities on the attachment are available only in the Audit Reports (Tools > Audit Reports). It isn’t available in the History tab on the Edit Items page.

Key Resources

• Refer to the Audit Trail section in the Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM: Implementing Product Management guide, available on the Oracle Help Center.

Access Requirements

Users who are assigned a configured job role that contains this privilege can access this feature:

• View Audit History (FND_VIEW_AUDIT_HISTORY_PRIV)

This privilege was available prior to this update.

Selected Product Development and Product Hub Common Bug Fixes in This Update

This update includes some bug fixes that can change the way Oracle Product Development and Oracle Product Hub work. This isn't a full list of all the bug fixes in this update. This list includes the bug fixes that can cause a noticeable change in application behavior.

System Actions Displayed in OTBI Reports

In the change order history tab or new item request action log, the Author column displays System as the author of automatic actions performed as part of the workflow. With this update, the OTBI reports also display System as the author of such actions.

Oracle reference: 34360298

Retrieving Redlined Substitute Components Using SOAP

The following operations in the Product Design Change Order SOAP service were returning errors if the change order contained substitutes with redlines: findChangeObject and findChangeOrderRedline.

You can now use these operations to get substitute component information even when the substitute has redlined item attributes.

Oracle reference: 34176846

Opening Change Orders Added in Delete Groups

Previously, if you tried to open a change order that's part of a delete group, you'd get an error message. You’d face this issue in the Product Development work area and simplified Change Management interface.

This issue is now fixed.

Notify Approvers upon Removal from Approvers List

You will now receive a new FYI notification if you're removed as an approver or reviewer in the current interim approval or approval workflow status. You can see the comments in the notification provided during removal action.

Removal Notification

If your role is designated as the workflow status participant, the Assignee field of the FYI notifications now displays your role name instead of your user name.

Completed Notification with Role in Assignee Field

This feature benefits your business by proactively notifying users upon their removal as an approver. These targeted notifications ensure that users don't waste time trying to approve workflows they don't need to, and other participants in the change workflow aren't inundated with notifications that don't pertain to them.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

• The user name appears in the Assignee field for the removal notification instead of approval group name.
• The removed users still receive the FYI notifications as they are part of approval groups.

General Information Tab of Change Order for Suppliers

FBDI import template ChangeOrderImportTemplate.xlsm now supports import of completed problem reports and corrective actions.

It also supports the import of the new attributes.

Change Order Import Template with New Attributes

This feature benefits your business by enabling you to:

• Formally track the origination of a problem report, CAPA, or change workflow.
• Provides the ability to associate a trading partner as a source of a problem report, CAPA, or change workflow.

Steps to Enable

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the following:
   • Offering: Product Management
   • Functional Area: Change Orders
   • Task: Manage Change Order Types

2. Select the predefined change type for which you want to configure the trading partner reference attributes.

3. Click Edit and click the Attributes tab.

4. In the Header Attributes section, the attributes are listed for their visibility.

5. In the Visibility column, select one of the following options for each of the attributes.
   • Blank: The attributes aren't visible to any user.
   • Internal: The attributes are visible for business users.
   • Internal and External: The attributes are visible for business users and supplier users.

6. Click Save and Close.

NOTE: To retain the existing behavior, the default value is set to Blank.

Attribute Configuration for Predefined Change Type

Tips And Considerations

• Change types that are created based on a predefined change type inherit the attribute visibility configuration of the parent change type.

• Although the change type 8D Corrective Actions is predefined, the attribute visibility setting is read-only. The configuration is inherited from its parent change type, Corrective Action.

• You can only import and export configurable attributes that are listed in the Attributes tab for the predefined change types.

• You can display the attributes to suppliers only if they are exposed to the business user.

• To enable users to edit the attributes, assign the Manage Change Header Attributes permission in Additional Workflow Controls.

• The change objects that are in progress honor the attribute visibility configuration.
