Practice - Defining Finished Goods Assemblies, Components, and


Subinventories
Overview
Oracle Work in Process is integrated with other Oracle applications, so you will be setting up
functions to be used later in executing transactions. In Oracle Inventory you define the items to
be produced, the components used production, and the subinventories where they reside.
Templates are used to specify sets of attributes for simplifying item definitions. Once defined,
items are assigned to organizations. In this practice, you will:

Create master items and components using templates

Associate those items with inventory organizations

Create subinventories where material and final assemblies are stored

Assumptions

You must have access to an Oracle Application Vision database or comparable training
or test instance at your site to complete this practice.

Students log into Oracle with User Name mfg and Password welcome; your instructor
might have a different User Name and Password for you to use.

Students use the M1 organization.

Students replace XX with a unique identifier, such as initials or something easy to


remember.

Tasks
Defining a master item assembly and components
1. Navigate to the Master Item window, and use the information in the following table to
create a finished goods item that you will use to build a discrete job (work order):
XX stands for your unique identifier
Apply the Finished Good template
Set the attributes for the item, as indicated
Note: System entry is case sensitive, so you need to remember the case of the items you are
creating.
