Do Not Use Database Tools to Modify Oracle Applications Data
Oracle STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that you never use SQL*Plus, Oracle Data
Browser, database triggers, or any other tool to modify Oracle Applications data unless
otherwise instructed.
Oracle provides powerful tools you can use to create, store, change, retrieve, and
maintain information in an Oracle database. But if you use Oracle tools such as
SQL*Plus to modify Oracle Applications data, you risk destroying the integrity of your
data and you lose the ability to audit changes to your data.
Because Oracle Applications tables are interrelated, any change you make using an
Oracle Applications form can update many tables at once. But when you modify Oracle
Applications data using anything other than Oracle Applications, you may change a
row in one table without making corresponding changes in related tables. If your tables
get out of synchronization with each other, you risk retrieving erroneous information
and you risk unpredictable results throughout Oracle Applications.
When you use Oracle Applications to modify your data, Oracle Applications
automatically checks that your changes are valid. Oracle Applications also keeps track
of who changes information. If you enter information into database tables using
database tools, you may store invalid information. You also lose the ability to track who
has changed your information because SQL*Plus and other database tools do not keep a
record of changes.

Mobile Supply Chain Applications Overview
This chapter covers the following topics:

• Overview of Mobile Supply Chain Applications
• Mobile Supply Chain Applications User Interface
• Mobile Manufacturing
• Mobile Quality
• Mobile Materials Management
• Enterprise Asset Management
• Shop Floor Management
Overview of Mobile Supply Chain Applications

The demand for accurate, real-time information throughout the supply chain has
created mobile computing for manufacturing. Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications
supports the interface of a mobile client device with a networked computer system. This
application provides the ability to perform shop floor and warehouse transactions from
any location in a facility using wireless radio frequency devices that can be hand-held,
wearable, ring scanner systems, and lift truck mounted. You can perform data entry
functions both manually and with a bar code scanner.
Default values enable ease of use and accuracy and while performing supply chain and
shop floor transactions. Transactions entered through mobile applications can be
processed either immediately (on-line transactions) or asynchronously.
As shown in this illustration, Oracle's Internet Computing Architecture supports mobile
Internet devices by providing a user interface for wireless devices that support a Telnet
client.
Mobile Supply Chain Applications Overview 1-1

Internet Computing Architecture
Through the use of standard Internet technologies in concert with Oracle Internet
platform products, Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications has the following
features:
• The Mobile Server enables you to perform Oracle Application transactions using
the Telnet Protocol Server. Information is sent from mobile industrial devices to the
Telnet Listener. The information is processed and updated in the application
database.
• You can create Work in Process shop floor transactions such as moves, issues, and
returns using mobile devices. You can also view job, line and material status.
• Mobile devices enable you to enter inventory transactions at the point of use.
Recording transactions in this way avoids duplicate data entry, and mobile device
scanning can improve data entry accuracy.
• You can perform quality collection plan queries, enter data, and record the results
of tests in a single business process. You are able to query up any specification
created in Oracle Quality whether it is an item specification, supplier specification,
or a customer specification.
Note: In some instances the name of a window described in the

body of the material may not match exactly with the name in the
window. This is due to the name in the window being shortened or
truncated because of the lack of space.
1-2 Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications User's Guide

Mobile Applications Server
The Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications Server enables you to perform
transactions using the Telnet Protocol Server. The Mobile Supply Chain Applications
Server module has two sub-modules:
• Telnet Protocol Handler— functions as the communication module between the
client and the rest of the Telnet.
• Presentation Manager—implements the telnet protocol that actually renders the

user interface on the connected telnet client.
The Oracle Mobile Applications Server can be configured to fit the needs of your
organization including starting the server on multiple nodes, specifying the ports used,
and specifying the database.
Mobile Supply Chain Applications User Interface

You can view all mobile windows with either the graphical user interface, or the
character- mode interface. This guide uses both interfaces interchangeably. The
interfaces display the same information, and the graphical user interface displays
information similar to the desktop application. The following figures depict the mobile
user interfaces.

Material Transactions
Oracle Mobile Manufacturing enables you to perform all work in process material
transactions. This includes issuing material from inventory to charge against a job,
reversing component issues, and issuing components from jobs to fill negative material
requirements.
Note: You can set the Allow Negative Balances Parameter in Oracle
Inventory so that the inventory balances of items can be driven
negative.
Lot and serial number control are maintained when issuing components. You can issue
partial requirement quantities and over–issue requirements. You can issue any item
even if it is not on the BOM for the job.
Over Picking
Over picking may be desirable for a number of reasons. It may improve operational
efficiency to pick a whole container rather than to spend time unpacking a small
residual quantity. It may be necessary to compensate for handling/shrinkage losses
during shipment or in a manufacturing process. The picked item may have an intrinsic
variation in quantity, and there is an agreement with the customer to accept such
variations. Over picking support provides mobile pickers with the option to over pick
material, with ease and flexibility, when transacting sales orders, manufacturing
component move order requisitions or replenishment picks. This enables over picking
of material through the mobile interfaces and helps streamline and speed up the
execution of the entire material picking process.
To issue or return material for a job:

1. Navigate to the Material Transaction window.

Material Transactions Page
2. Select a transaction type. You can deliver parts to a job using component issue and
take parts previously issued back to inventory using component return. You can
also issue components to satisfy negative job requirements. When you issue
negative requirement components, the components are returned from the job to
inventory. You can reverse negative component issues with negative component
returns. When you return components that have negative requirements, the
components are issued from inventory to the job.
Note: The prompts for all material transactions are the same. The
window name distinguishes the transaction type: Issue, Return,
Negative Issue, and Negative Return.
The Assembly number for the job you select displays in the Assembly field.

Picking for Manufacturing

Oracle Inventory creates move orders and allocations for material requirements on a job
or a schedule. The component pick release process supports discrete jobs, repetitive
schedules, lot-based jobs, and flow schedules.
For more information on about the component pick release process, see Oracle Inventory
User's Guide.
This section covers the features of Picking for Manufacturing for Oracle Mobile Supply
Chain Applications:
• Picking Process
• Change Management
Picking Process
In Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications, the move orders can be transacted on
either the desktop or on the mobile device. The mobile form allows the user to confirm
the item, revision, and if applicable, lot and serial numbers of the move order. The
mobile directs the operator to move the material either to the supply subinventory and
locator if the supply type is operator or assembly pull, or to the job or schedule if the
supply type is push.
Change Management
The change management supported for jobs and schedules is identical for Oracle
Mobile Supply Chain Applications as it is for Oracle Inventory, with the exception that
move orders for which the source document has been canceled will not be available for

transacting on the mobile. Canceling the move order and thus relieving the allocation
must be performed via the Transact Move Order form from the desktop .
Serial Assembly Transactions

You can conduct assembly transactions by individual serial numbers. You can use a
serial number to find information such as Job Number, Assembly Number, and the
current operation of the assembly. Before you can perform serial assembly transactions,
you must complete the following prerequisites:
• Inventory Setup
• Specify the Serial control type as Predefined
• Establish the type of serial number uniqueness for the organization.
• Work in Process Setup

• Set the Default Serialization Start Operation
You can set this parameter either on the assembly routing, or in Work in
Process.
• Set the Default Intraoperation Step for Assembly Moves.
• Associate serial numbers to a job.
Note: You must use a mobile device to perform serial assembly

transactions.

Serial Material Transactions

Oracle Mobile Manufacturing enables you to perform all work in process material
transactions. This includes issuing material from inventory to charge against a job,
reversing component issues, and issuing components from jobs to fill negative material
requirements.
Note: You can set the Allow Negative Balances Parameter in Oracle
Inventory so that the inventory balances of items can be driven
negative.
Serial Component Issue

Only items defined on the BOM can be issued and pushed to the job. If the components
are under serial control, you can not issue more components than the required quantity.
Components defined with supply type Push can be issued to a job any time after serial
number association as long as the job is in status Released or Complete. You enter the

parent serial number then components serial or item number, and genealogy is built
based on this transaction. During serial component issue serial genealogy is created
between the assembly and it's components. For non serialized items, transaction
quantity defaults to the lesser of required or open quantity for the job as a whole, but
you can override this default. For push issues of components that are only lot
controlled, if components of more than one lot are being issued to a single assembly,
you must perform one transaction for each component lot.
Serial Component Return

When you return a component to inventory, you must enter the parent serial number
then the component serial or item number, and the genealogy is de-activated based on
this transaction. You can only return a serial number issued to the current job. When
you return the a serialized component. The serial genealogy is disabled. The return
quantity of a serialized component is fixed at 1 and the return quantity of a non
serialized component cannot exceed the quantity issued to the job.

UCC128 / UCC14 Support

Support of the barcoding and product number standards as promoted by UCC/EAN is
growing. The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) solution includes support for
EAN/UCC-14. Companies use EAN/UCC-14 for packaging identical consumer units
standard quantities of intermediate packs or shipping containers. EAN/UCC-14 is
commonly used in a non-retail environment, particularly in distribution centers that
work with packaged goods. Complete support includes a cross-reference from
EAN/UCC-14 to Item and Transaction unit of measure. You can perform mobile
transactions by scanning the EAN/UCC-14 barcodes on standard packs and indicating
the transaction quantity in number of standard packs.
Standard Receipts
When the routing on the receiving document indicates Standard Receipt, you initially

receive the items into a receiving location. Receiving locations are designated areas
where you temporarily store material before you deliver it to inventory. You can inspect
standard receipts depending on the receipt routing the receiving document specifies.
The Receipt Information window appears after you enter information on the Receipt
page and you select<Done>. The document number and receiving source may appear
based on the specific receipt transaction, and the system generates a receipt number for
the transaction.
You can receive items from purchase orders, internal shipments, return material
authorizations (RMA), internal requisitions, and All. The All function enables you to
receive any type of receipt. The following sections detail how to receive each type of
standard receipt.

function parameter. If you set the form function parameter to display the Sec Uom
and Sec Qty fields, then you can modify them based on the parameters that you set
on the Item Master. See Inventory Attribute Group, Oracle Inventory User's Guide for
more information.
9. If the item is lot, serial, or lot and serial controlled, you can enter, select a lot, or
scan the first lot, and enter a quantity. If the item is under dual UOM control, then
the secondary lot quantity defaults based on how you defined the item in the Item

Master. Three types of defaulting are available, Fixed, Default and No Default, see
Inventory Attribute Group, Oracle Inventory User's Guide for more information.
The remaining quantity is displayed indicating the quantity that is yet to be
received or the total quantity received to date, depending on the setting of the
QTYTRG form function parameter. If the lot is under child lot control, you enter the
parent lot, and the child lot appears automatically in the Lot field.
Note: If you set Lot Divisible to no on the Item Master, then you
can receive any quantity in to the locator as long as no reservation
exists, and you receive the entire lot quantity in to the same locator.
You can continue to receive the lot into an existing indivisible lot
provided that it is in the same locator. If the lot exists in a locator,
then you cannot receive that lot into a different locator.

Receiving Standard Internal Shipments

You can use a mobile device to receive internal shipments. Internal shipments are
shipments that you source from within your company.
Dual Unit of Measure Control Across Organizations

When you receive an item under dual unit of measure control from another
organization, the units of measure may differ, but they must be part of the same unit of
measure class. Items may also be under dual unit of measure control in one
organization, but not in another organization. The following conditions apply:
• Shipping Organization Dual UOM, Receiving Organization Single UOM: The
system does not require the secondary quantity in the receiving organization, and it
performs a validation against the internal order or transfer line.
• Shipping Organization Single UOM Receiving Organization Dual UOM: The

system does not require the secondary UOM on the internal order or transfer. You
must enter the secondary quantities on the receipts page, or the system defaults the
secondary quantities based on the rules for the item and the receiving organization.
• Shipping Organization Dual UOM, Receiving Organization Different Dual UOM: If

the units of measure differ between organization, then the system calculates the
primary ordered quantity and the secondary ordered quantity for the destination
organization based on the UOM conversion between the primary and secondary

quantities of the shipping organization.
• Shipping Organization Dual UOM, Receiving Organization Different Primary

Ordered UOMs but Same Secondary UOMs: The system copies the secondary
quantity to the destination organization and derives the primary ordered quantity
based on the default conversion.
• Shipping Organization Dual UOM, Receiving Organization Dual UOM: If you

specify default or no default on the item master, then the system copies the primary
and secondary quantities in the receiving organization if the quantities are within
the deviation limit that is defined on the destination item and organization.
Receiving Lots Across Organizations

If the lot is indivisible in the shipping organization, but divisible in the receiving
organization, you can receive multiple quantities of the same lot in the receiving
organization. If the lot is indivisible in both organizations, you must receive the entire
lot in the receiving organization. If the lot is child lot enabled, the system receives only
the child lot. You cannot create a parent lot in the receiving organization.

Receiving Standard Return Material Authorizations

Return Material Authorizations (RMA) are used when a customer wants to return the
goods shipped on a sales order. You can create a receipt against an RMA as you would
any other receipt.
Receiving Lots on an RMA

If the item the customer returns is under lot control, then you can set a profile option to

determine how you receive lots. You can set the system to receive only lots that are
specified on the RMA, new lots, or receive material into existing lots that are not
specified on the RMA.
The system does not allow you to manually enter a lot number that does not follow the
predefined lot naming convention of the item. It also does not allow you to enter a
quantity that is outside of tolerance. In addition, you cannot receive material into an
existing lot if the lot statuses differ or violate the status of the destination lot.

Consigned and Vendor Managed Inventory

Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) is a procurement and planning practice in which you
delegate key inventory management functions to one or more suppliers. Under this
arrangement, the supplier determines the items, quantities, and delivery schedules on
your behalf based on information the supplier receives from your inventory and
procurement systems.
Consigned inventory is on hand inventory that is physically located in an inventory
organization but is still owned by a third party legal entity, such as a supplier.
Consigned and VMI transfers enable you to assume the planning responsibility, owning
responsibility, or both from the supplier. This transaction does not move goods, it
changes the planning organization owning organization, or both from the supplier site
to the internal organization that holds the goods. After you perform a planning transfer
and run collection, your supplier can no longer see the transferred quantity in the
on-hand quantity column.
To perform a consigned / vendor managed inventory receipt or issue:

1. Navigate to the Issues or Receipt page.

Counting
Oracle Mobile Materials Management provides windows to perform cycle counting and
complete physical inventory functions.
You can perform cycle counting instead of taking complete physical inventories to
verify inventory quantities and values. Accurate system on-hand quantities are essential
for managing supply and demand, maintaining high service levels, and planning
production.
You can also perform replenishment counts that you have previously defined in the
inventory desktop.
Cycle Counting
Cycle counting is the periodic counting of individual items throughout the course of the
year to ensure the accuracy of inventory quantities and values. You can also perform a
full physical inventory to reconcile system maintained item on-hand balances with
actual counts of inventory; however, you cannot perform any transactions in or out of a
subinventory while you conduct a physical inventory. You can perform a normal cycle
count, as well as a serial-triggered cycle count. In a serial controlled environment, you
can enter or scan the serial number of the item, and derive the item, revision, and lot
information.
Before you can use the mobile device to enter cycle count entries, you must complete set
up work in the desk top application. You must set up your ABC classes, and cycle count
header information. See Overview of ABC Analysis, and Overview of Cycle Counting
in the Oracle Inventory User's Guide.

form function parameter to display secondary UOM information.
When you enter a quantity that is less than the system suggested the missing
required quantity, the missing quantity field appears. You are prompted to enter a
quantity, either the quantity difference between the suggested quantity and the
quantity that you confirmed or you can leave the missing quantity field blank. You
can also change the suggested destination subinventory or locator.
If a quantity is missing, the delivery line is split and the missing quantity is
unassigned from the current delivery.
When you leave the missing quantity field blank, a message appears during the
pick confirmation process prompting you if the lines that are not fully picked are
unassigned from the current delivery. If you select Yes, the delivery is split and the
lines are unassigned. If you select No, the Pick Confirm window appears.
7. Enter the desired lot if the item is under lot control.
8. Enter the lot quantity to confirm if the item is under lot control. If the item is under
dual UOM control, then you must confirm both the primary and secondary lot

information. If you set the profile option INV: Target Preferred Grade to Yes, and if
the sales order line contains the preferred grade, then you can select only lots with
the preferred grade. If the profile option is set to No, and the sales order line does

Mobile Shipping
Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Application has two shipping modes, Quick Ship and Ship
Confirm. Quick Ship enables you ship confirm an entire delivery at once without
having to verify item information. Ship Confirm prompts you to enter the delivery and
each item to ship within the delivery. You can adjust the shipped quantity for each item
and you can generate serial numbers
You can automate the shipping process for some sales orders that meet a specific
criterion in the Quick Ship menu option. You can ship confirm all lines on a particular
delivery number if:
• All sales order lines for that delivery are staged.
• No serialized items are on the sales order lines that require serial number
generation at the time of issue.
To perform Quick Ship transactions:

2. Select Picking/Shipping.
3. Select Quick Ship.

The Quick Ship window appears.
Quick Ship Page
4. Enter, scan, or select the delivery number. This is a required field.

5. Optionally enter the weight, delivery UOM, and waybill.
6. Select <Done> to save your work, or <Return to Stock> to cancel this

transaction.
If you select Return to Stock the reservations for the lines are removed, and the
material is now available in on-hand quantity. In addition, the delivery status is
changed from Staged to Ready to Release.
Ship Confirm
Ship confirm is the process of recording items that have shipped. The difference
between Ship Confirm and Quick ship is that you enter the information of what you
want shipped, rather than automatically shipping all items on the delivery. When you
ship confirm a delivery, Oracle Shipping Execution confirms that the delivery lines
associated with the delivery have shipped. See Overview of Ship Confirm, Oracle
Shipping Execution User's Guide.
To perform ship confirm transactions:

2. Select Picking/Shipping.
3. Select Ship Confirm.
4. Enter the delivery number and item to query the ship confirm record.
5. Select <Find Lines> to search for the delivery line, SN Req'd Lines to find
delivery lines that require serial numbers at the time of issue, or <Cancel> to void
this query.
The SN Req'd Lines option accesses any lines in the delivery that have items
serialized at sales order issue. The serial numbers are created for these items during
the ship confirmation process. When this option is selected, the line window is
accessed to confirm the quantities and to enter the serial numbers.

Ship Confirm Page
6. Select <Find Lines> to query the delivery line, or <Cancel> to void this query.
If you selected <Find Lines>, the Ship Confirm window appears.
7. Enter the item number in the Confirm field to validate that this is the item you want
to ship. The required quantity is defaulted. You can enter the quantity you want to
ship in the Ship Qty field. If the shipped quantity is less than the required quantity,
you can enter the remaining quantity as missing quantity or you can leave the
missing quantity blank. If you entered a missing quantity, the delivery line for the
original quantity is split and the missing quantity is unassigned from the current
delivery.
If you leave the missing quantity field blank and the shipped quantity is less than
the required quantity, the system prompts you with a warning message. You have
two options: Return to Stock, by which the unshipped quantity is split into a new
delivery line, The reservations for the new line are removed and the material is now
available as on-hand quantity. The delivery line status is changed from Staged to
Backordered; Delay Shipment, by which the delivery for the original quantity is
split into two, one for the shipped amount and the other for the difference, and the
second line is assigned to a new delivery. The system creates a new delivery line
number and assigns it to this line. You can then ship this new line separately on this
new delivery.
If the item is under dual UOM control, you must also confirm the secondary

required quantity. The system also displays the secondary picked quantity,
secondary missed quantity, and secondary shipped quantity.
Ship Confirm Page
8. Select <Done> to save this transaction, <Find More> to search for other lines on
the ship confirm record, or <Cancel> to void this transaction.

Labels
Labels can be printed manually or automatically at various transaction points.
The Labels menu enables you to submit requests to print labels. Five types of labels are
available in the Mobile Material Management application, including material, serial
number, location, shipping, and shipping content.

Compliance Labeling Setup
The compliance labeling features help inventory to move more efficiently throughout
the warehouse. Compliance labeling from suppliers speeds the receiving process by
allowing bar code scanning of inbound purchase orders, resulting in less receipt
processing time, immediate recognition of available materials, and higher receiving
accuracy.
By producing customer specific labels on demand for each shipment, compliance
labeling also enables your organization to easily comply with customer requirements
for bar code labeling and advance shipment notifications (ASNs).
The compliance labeling features enable you to:
• Meet supplier-specific needs for bar code labels for both products and containers.
• Meet customer-specific needs for bar code labels for both products and containers.
• Produce partner-compliant shipping labels that are specific to the carrier and
customer.
Note: To design and print compliance labels, you need to use a

third-party label printing package certified by Oracle Warehouse
Management and Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications.
Setting up compliance labeling includes the following tasks:

• Labeling Requirements
• Setting Up Labels
Describing Customer Labeling Requirements

Labels are typically centered on the following major requirements:
• Label format
• Label data
• Bar code specifications
• Symbol content
The compliance labeling features enable all of these requirements to work together to
meet your guidelines. The system supports the following label types:
• Materials label: Provides information about an item, including the lot information,
if applicable.

• Serial label: The Serial label provides information specific to a serial of an item.
• Location label: Provides information about a specific warehouse locators. The

Mobile Label Request page enables you to manually request labels for locators and
subinventories. These requests can be initiated one at a time, for each subinventory
and each locator, or they can be issued for all locators of a particular subinventory,
or all locators of all subinventories (if the subinventory is locator controlled).
• Shipping label: Provides information for an outbound shipment. It does not include
information about the contents of the shipment, but includes only addresses and
information that are pertinent to the shipment itself.
• Shipping Contents label: Provides information for an outbound shipment. It

includes information for all of the contents that are part of that shipment.
• Flow Content label: Provides information for flow components. It includes the
component number, serial, lot, job number, assembly number, and start date.
• Dispense Pallet label:
• Process Dispense Material label:
• Process Material label:
• Process Product label:
• Process Sample label: Provides sample information if the material requires a quality
test. It includes: intermediate product code, intermediate product description,
sample number, parent lot, child lot, quantity, date sampled, date of manufacture
(lot creation date, expiration date, hazardous material class, and notes
Setting Up Labels
Setting up labels involves the following tasks:
• Defining label formats
• Associating label types to business flows
Defining Label Formats

When you define label formats, you are setting up the data fields that you want the
system to include on a particular label. The following figure provides an example of the
data that might appear on a small hazardous items content label. To define this label in
the system, you would set up the label fields, serial number, item description, volume,
and unit of measure.

Associating Label Types to Business Flows
After you set up label formats, you must associate them to the specific warehouse
business flow in which you want to use them. This association enables the label type to
be printed automatically as part of that business flow.
The following table provides a list of the various business flows and the types of labels
that you can associate to each flow. The horizontal header row of the table lists the
various label types available. The far left vertical column lists the warehouse-related
business flow. Yes, indicates that the system can generate the label type for that
business flow. No indicates that the system does not generate that label type for the
business flow.

When you set up label formats, you must set up the following:
• How to Set Up Label Formats
• How to Define Label Field Variables
• How to Associate Label Types to Business Flows
How to Set Up Label Formats

Before you can specify label generation points and construct label format rules, you
must define label formats. You define labels in the Define Label Formats window.
1. Navigate to the Define Label Formats window.
2. In the Label Type field, use the list of values to select the label type for which you
want to define label formats.
3. In the Label Formats region, Name field, enter a name for the label.
This name should be the name that is recognized by the third-party printing
software.
4. In the Description field, enter an optional description to describe this label format.
5. In the Disable Date field, enter an optional date on which this label format can no
longer be used.

6. Select the Default Label check box to identify that this label format will be used as
the default label format. Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications always uses the
default format when the label is requested as part of a transaction. However, other
formats can be used during manual requests that are accessed by the mobile
manual print page.
Note: You can specify only one label format as the default label.
Note: Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications supports only one

label format per label type.
7. Save your work, and click the Label Fields button to open the Define Label Field
Variable window.
How to define label field variables:

These instructions assume that you have already defined a label format and you clicked
the Label Fields button to open the Define Label Field Variables window.
1. In the Label Fields region, Field Name field, use the list of values to select the data
element that represents the field on the label.
The list of values in this field is determined by the label type that you selected, for
example Contents, in the Define Label Formats window.
2. In the Field Variable Name field, enter a unique text string to use as the identifier in
the XML data that is produced by Mobile Supply Chain Applications.
3. In the Description field, enter an optional description for the field variable name.
4. Repeat the steps as necessary to enter additional label fields.
5. When you are finished, save your work.
How to associate label types to business flows:

Before you can associate label types to business flows, you must already have defined
the appropriate label format that is compatible with the business flow. For a list of
compatible label formats for business flows, see the Assign Label Types to Business
Flows window. Note that you also use this window to associate label types to business
flows.
1. Navigate to the Assign Label Types to Business Flows window.
2. In the left panel of the window, expand the Business Flows icon to display a list of

business flows.
3. Select the business flow to which you want to associate a label type.
4. In the Label Type field, use the list of values to select the label type that you want to
associate to the business flow.
Note: The list of values displays only the valid label types for the
business flow.
5. In the Level field, select the level at which you want to control printing for this label
type.
Valid values are Site, Application, Responsibility, and User.
6. In the Value field, select the value for the level that you selected in Step 5.
The Value field is disabled if you selected Site as the level in Step 5.
7. The Enabled check box is automatically selected to indicate that this label type can
be used for generating the label that is associated with the business flow. Clearing
this check box disables this association, and the label type will not be generated for
the business flow.
8. In the Comments field, enter any comments about the association that you just
created.
9. Save your work.

In addition to automatic label printing previously described, Oracle Mobile Supply
Chain Applications lets you create individual label print requests from the Mobile
user interface.

A
Using Barcode Identifiers
This appendix covers the following topics:

• Overview of Barcode Identifiers in Mobile Supply Chain Applications
• Oracle DI Functionality
• Oracle Mobile Applications DI Flow
• Setup for DI Support
Overview of Barcode Identifiers in Mobile Supply Chain Applications

Data Identifiers are used extensively for the purpose of identifying the type of data that
is embedded within a barcode. A DI usually consists of one to three characters
prepended to the data that is encoded in the barcode. For instance, a DI for Part
Number might be P+. If the part number that were encoded in a given barcode were
AS54888 then the barcode would encode the value P+AS54888 to indicate that the
barcode is for a Part Number and that Part Number is AS54888.
DIs are useful in reducing error caused by scanning the wrong barcode into a field on a
mobile device. They are also helpful because they allow fields to be scanned out of
order and values to be placed into the appropriate fields.
Oracle DI Functionality
Oracle Mobile Applications provides DI support for recognition of barcodes containing
DIs and out-of-order scanning.
Field Recognition
Oracle Mobile Applications will recognize a DI that is included in a barcode and
validate that DI with the field that the value is being scanned into. Depending on
whether the DI is flagged to be required, a failed DI validation could result in an error
message to the user.
Using Barcode Identifiers A-1

Each field on the mobile applications can be assigned one or more DIs to be validated
against. In addition, each field may be optionally be flagged to require a DI. If a DI is
required, a barcode that is scanned into this field must have one of the DIs assigned to
that field. If no DI is found the mobile user will receive an error message. If a DI is not
required, Oracle will validate against a DI if it is found, but if no DI is found, the entire
value of the barcode will be inserted into that field.
Out of Order Scanning

Oracle also supports Out-of-Order scanning through DIs. If a field is scanned
containing a DI that corresponds to a field other than the field that the cursor is
currently on, the value of that barcode will be entered into the appropriate field. The
user can then continue and scan the barcode corresponding to the current field, or scan
another DI identified barcode out of order.
The value that is inserted into the Out-of-Order field will be validated against when the
user navigates through that field. Because Oracle's field level validation generally
depends on previous fields for validation to occur, the user must continue on the
normal path of navigation through that field to complete the transaction.
For instance, if a user is performing a Miscellaneous Issue of material using a mobile
device, the user may first scan the Part Number being issued. That scan could be
validated against a DI of P+ for the part number. The next scan is a barcode with the
value Q+10. Oracle determines that there is a field on the current page that uses Q+ as a
DI. Consequently, the value 10 is placed into the quantity field. The user must then scan
the Subinventory and Locator that the material is being issued out of. Then the user
navigates through the quantity field and the quantity is validated against the available
quantity in the Subinventory and Locator scanned earlier.
Oracle Mobile Applications DI Flow

The following diagram displays the entire flow behind Oracle DI support. When a
barcode is scanned, the mobile device pre-ends an ASCII control character (the Data
Stream Indicator) to the data transmitted to the server. Oracle Mobile Server recognizes
the Data Stream Indicator and searches for a recognizable Data Field Unidentified in the
barcode data. A DI is recognized as being assigned to a field on the current page. The
value from the barcode is extracted and inserted into the field represented by the DI.
Necessary Elements for DI Support

To support DI, the mobile device being used must support automatically pre-pending
an arbitrary character to any scanned entry. All the mobile devices that are certified for
use with Oracle Mobile Applications are required to support this functionality. Setting
up the mobile device to enable DI support is discussed in the next section.
The Oracle Mobile Server must be configured properly as well to support DI scanning.
Finally, the specific Oracle Application being used through the mobile device must
properly support DI functionality. Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications (Inventory
A-2 Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications User's Guide

Management segment) and Oracle Warehouse Management currently provide full
support for DI functionality. Check with the specific product User's Guide if you are
unsure as to whether DIs are supported.
Setup for DI Support

The setup to enable DI support involves three steps. The mobile device must be
configured to pre-pend an ASCII control character to every scan. The Mobile Server
must be configured to recognize the proper ASCII control character as indicating a
scanned entry. Finally, the Applications must be set up to recognize DIs for each field
on the mobile forms.
Hardware Setup
The first step in configuring DI support is to configure the mobile device such to
prebend the Data Stream Indicator to every scan. The Data Stream Indicator should be
an ASCII control character (non-printable character). All the devices that are certified
with Oracle Mobile Applications support this type of configuration. Most scanners can
be configured by scanning configuration barcodes, navigating to a configuration menu
through the device keypad, or by using a remote configuration tool.
The default Data Stream Indicator is ASCII 28 – File Separator. Unless there is a reason
why this ASCII control character cannot be used, it should be used as the Data Stream
Indicator. However, any ASCII control character may be used as the Data Stream
Indicator except for Backspace (8), Horizontal Tab (9), Line Feed (10), Vertical Tab (11),
Form Feed (12), Carriage Return (13), Shift Out (14), Shift In (15) or Escape (27).
Mobile Server Setup

After the device has been configured to prebend the Data Stream Indicator, the mobile
server must be configured to recognize the appropriate Data Stream Indicator. Each
device configuration can have a different Data Stream Indicator to support the varying
capabilities of different mobile devices. The configuration setting is located in the device
configuration file. The default device configuration setting (default_key.ini) that ships
with the mobile server has the Data Stream Indicator set to the default: ASCII 28.
The character that the device prepends to scanned entry must match with the entry in
the.ini file for the device configuration being used in order for DIs to be fully
supported.
Applications Setup
DI information is stored in the same place that the field labels for the mobile forms are
stored – the AK Dictionary. This is the same place that changes can be made to the field
labels that show up on the mobile forms if larger, smaller, or more descriptive field
labels are required. To access the AK Dictionary, you must log onto Oracle Applications
on the desktop and access the responsibility AK Developer. Contact your system
administrator if this responsibility is not assigned to your user.
Using Barcode Identifiers A-3

Navigating the AK Dictionary
Once within the AK Developer Responsibility, DIs may be registered at two different
levels – the Attributes level or the Region Items level. Region Items are basically
Attributes that have been assigned to a Region. DIs registered at the Region Items level
take precedence over DIs registered at the Attribute level.
To register DIs at the Attributes level, you may navigate to the Define Attributes form.
From that form, the entries for each of the fields that show up on the mobile forms can
be accessed. Attributes can be queried by the Attribute Name or the Label. The DI string
should be entered in the field called "Default Varchar2 Value See below for details on
the format of the DI string.
To register DIs at the Region Items level, you must know the Resource Table that is
used by the specific mobile application being used (for Oracle Inventory and WMS it is
INVRESOURCETABLE). The Resource Table can be queried up in the Region form the
Define Regions form. For instance, to query up the Oracle Inventory Resource Table,
you would query on Region ID = INVRESOURCETABLE.
Once the appropriate Resource Table has been found, you can click on the Region Items
button. On the Region Items form, you can view all the AK Region Items that are being
used for mobile applications from that Resource Table. Locate the field that corresponds
to the proper field on the mobile page, and enter the DI string into the field called "
Default Varchar2 Value.
Entering the DI String

The DI String should be entered into the field called "Default Varchar2 Value either on
the Attributes level, or the Region Items level. The text that should be entered into this
field should be in the following format:
DI=Q+,q+,Q,q REQ=N
The above text indicates that four DIs may be used for this field: the characters Q+, q+,
Q, and q. It also indicates that a DI is not required for this field. To make a DI required
for a field, use the text "REQ=Y after the DI list.
DIs should be listed in the order they should be validated against.
Note: Be careful to include DIs that are subsets of other DIs after the original DI. For
example, if the DI Q were listed before the DI Q+ and a barcode was scanned using the
DI Q+, the Q would be removed from the barcode, but the + would remain as part of the
field value and an error would occur.
Oracle Mobile Applications comes seeded with various industry standard DIs to make
the implementation process easier.

Using Configurable Barcode Delimiter
Overview of Configurable Barcode Delimiter in Mobile Supply Chain

Applications
Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications allows the use of a user-defined delimiter to
be used for pieces of data that must always be entered in sequence on the mobile
device. For example, a subinventory and locator are always entered together if the
subinventory is locator controlled; an item is always followed by its revision if it is
revision controlled; and a purchase order number is always followed by the line
number. You can either make two scans to enter the data on the mobile device or a
single scan of a barcode with an embedded carriage return to print the data. However,
the embedded carriage return may not provide the desired appearance on the printed
label. Oracle Mobile Supply Chain Applications allows the use of a user-defined
delimiter for the same.
Configurable Barcode Delimiters Profile Options

The following three profile options are available for you to indicate a single character
which can serve as a delimiter:
• WMS: Item/Revision Delimiter
• WMS: PO Number/Line Delimiter
• WMS: Subinventory/Locator Delimiter
All three profiles can be set at the site level and are applicable to both Oracle Mobile
Supply Chain Applications and Oracle Warehouse Management. The character
indicated by these profile options will be interpreted as a carriage return, allowing a
single scan to populate two different fields on the mobile device.
