Do Not Use Database Tools to Modify Oracle E-Business Suite Data

Oracle STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that you never use SQL*Plus, Oracle Data
Browser, database triggers, or any other tool to modify Oracle E-Business Suite 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 E-Business Suite data, you risk destroying the integrity of
your data and you lose the ability to audit changes to your data.
Because Oracle E-Business Suite tables are interrelated, any change you make using an
Oracle E-Business Suite form can update many tables at once. But when you modify
Oracle E-Business Suite data using anything other than Oracle E-Business Suite, 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 E-Business Suite.
When you use Oracle E-Business Suite to modify your data, Oracle E-Business Suite
automatically checks that your changes are valid. Oracle E-Business Suite 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.

Asset Intensive Planning

Integration with Oracle Enterprise Asset Management

The purpose of this functionality is to plan asset intensive maintenance.
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning considers the preventative maintenance
activities managed in Oracle Enterprise Asset Management and generates the supply
chain plan for both rebuildable and consumable items. The Oracle Enterprise Asset
Management Maintenance Scheduler considers factors to the maintenance effort that
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning does not consider, for example, usage, meter
readings, and calendar days.
Process Overview
Rebuildable items (rebuildables) are assets that you install, remove, overhaul, and
reinstall, for example, engines, control boxes, and computer boards. Other components
that you remove, discard, and replace are consumables.
Maintenance activities, for example, inspection, overhaul, lubrication, repair, servicing,
and cleaning, are the templates of work orders. The activities have an activity structure
the material requirements (maintenance bill of material) and operations and resource
requirements (activity routing) that you need to perform the maintenance.
You associate activities with assets.
The preventative maintenance scheduler uses asset and rebuildable utilization meters
and associated activities to forecast maintenance work orders (budget forecast
template). The maintenance work orders forecast the material, resource, and budgetary
requirements to maintain the assets for the budget horizon.
You can also create routine work orders and easy work orders manually. Oracle Quality
and Oracle Service create work orders as well.
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning:

Collects the Oracle Enterprise Asset Management maintenance work orders

Asset Intensive Planning 1-1

Plans repair work orders for rebuildable items and purchase requisitions for
consumable items

When you release repair work orders:

The material and labor associated with the activity becomes part of the work orders.

They pass to Oracle Production Scheduling for execution.

Collect Oracle Enterprise Asset Management Rebuildable Activity Structures

Assets have Asset Type of Rebuildable Inventory.
Rebuildable items have:

Item attribute Inventory Item selected

User Item Type of Asset Activity

The activity is the type of maintenance activity you are performing.

The collections process collects items from Oracle Enterprise Asset Management
with asset-activity type.

The planning process plans the asset items, and you specify the activities associated
with an asset in item attribute Rebuild Activity.

You define values for activities on the source in Oracle Enterprise Asset Management
and in the destination in Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning. Oracle recommends
the values be the same in both places.
The activity structure from Oracle Enterprise Asset Management becomes the Oracle
Advanced Supply Chain Planning repair structure.

Collect Oracle Enterprise Asset Management Production Work Orders

The process uses net change collections.
The process collects into order types:

Maintenance Work Order

Maintenance Work Order Demand

The work orders item in Oracle Enterprise Asset Management is the activity item. In
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning, the work order item becomes the related
inventory item of:

For assets, Asset Group

For rebuildables, Rebuildable Item

1-2 Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning Implementation and User's Guide Supplement

The process collects work order with these statuses:

Unreleased

Released

On Hold

Pending Scheduling

Draft

The process collects these Oracle Enterprise Asset Management work order attributes:

Rebuild or Asset Activity: The maintenance activity being executed.

Produces to Stock: Asset work orders do not make supply, rebuildable work orders
make supply.

Class Code: The expense accounts for the work.

Maintenance Plan: The forecast name of the budget forecast that this work order
belongs to

Activity Type: The type of maintenance activity performed

Priority

Project: Project and task

Collect Oracle Enterprise Asset Management Forecasted Work Orders

Oracle Enterprise Asset Management forecasted work orders occur:

In forecast sets

When the maintenance planner assigns preventative maintenance schedules to

assets/activities and rebuildables/activities. From these come projected material,
resource and budget requirements.

The process collects them in to the same order types and collects the same work order
attributes as the Oracle Enterprise Asset Management production work orders.
You can control this collection with these parameters

EAM Forecast: To collect them, select Yes

Start Date

End Date

Asset Intensive Planning 1-3

Oracle recommends that you collect forecasted orders at least up to the Oracle
Advanced Supply Chain Planning planning horizon.

Make Resource Unavailable

The collections process determines shut down times of the production resources that
correspond to the assets.
Asset and Production Resource Link
Equipment items are resources. You can link an asset to an equipment item.
You identify an equipment item by:

In Oracle Enterprise Asset Management, Asset Number,. You do not identify it by

Equipment Item nor Serial Number

In Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning, Resource Code

Shutdown Type
The process knows if it needs to make a resource unavailable to the production
scheduling engine by looking at attribute Shutdown Type.
If it is:

Required, the resource is not available

Not required, the resource is available

You can enter Shutdown Type against work orders and operations:

If you enter Required for a work order, the process ignores operation Shutdown
Type and makes all resources available or unavailable for the time of the work
order

If you enter Not Required for a work order, the process ignores work order
Shutdown Type and makes each resource available or unavailable according to
operation Shutdown Type for the time of its operation

The shutdown duration is from Scheduled Start Date to Scheduled Completion Date. If
the work order has started, the resource unavailability starts on Actual Start Date.
To load the production resource corresponding to the asset that you are maintaining,
the process creates dummy maintenance work orders:

Their work order numbers end with R

They are firm

They have no components

1-4 Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning Implementation and User's Guide Supplement

They can span the time of more than one Oracle Enterprise Asset Management
work orders, for example, one for battery change and one for daily maintenance

Specify Subinventory Part Condition

To store rebuildables:

Use a nettable subinventory with a name that identifies defective material.

Set the subinventory Default Status Locator

Mark Condition Type in Oracle Service Parts Planning as Defective

Use one of these as subinventory Default Status Locator

Unserviceable

Unserviceable: Not Available for Netting, ATP and Reservations

MRB Review

QC Hold

Quarantine

Derive Removals from Work Orders

Oracle Enterprise Asset Management has maintenance work orders and Oracle
Advanced Supply Chain Planning creates planned repair work orders for rebuildable
items.
Any of their components that are repairable might be defective.
Since you need to remove defective parts, the component requirements are also the
removal forecast.
To mark a component as repairable, set destination-only item attribute Repair Module
to either EAM or CMRO. The value specifies which module manages the item's
maintenance.
To instruct Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning to derive the removal forecast, set
plan option Derive Returns Forecast from Work Order to Yes.
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning explodes the maintenance bill of material to
get the components of the maintenance work orders.
It includes scrap and yield rates, see Generating Planned Repair Orders.
The removal forecast is grouped by item, organization, and date.
Inter-org Transfers of Removals

Asset Intensive Planning 1-5

For Transfer to sourcing rules, make a sourcing rule for defective parts and a different
one for usable parts. These rules mean the condition of the removal after you complete
the operation. Specify the condition that the sourcing rule applies to in assignment set
Condition.
This routes the defective part to a different repair location than the usable parts.

Forecast Preventative Maintenance Plans

Each Oracle Enterprise Asset Management work order has attribute Maintenance Plan
with values:

Production for the production work orders

<forecast name> for the budget forecast work orders

<simulation set name> for Oracle Complex Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul
simulation sets

In Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning, to select the work orders for the planning
process to use, select them in plan option Maintenance Work Orders.

Model Repair Operations

The Repair at sourcing rule is to repair defective items at that organization.
You make this rule at the destination organization.
In the assignment set, assign the rule to either:

Instance-org

Item-instance-org

The item comes from the repair as useable; set Condition to Usable.
To repair them somewhere else, use Transfer to sourcing rule at the source
organization.

Plan
The planning process uses items in:

Usable subinventories as sources for good items

Defective subinventories as sources of defective items to repair into usable items

Make at orders have demands for usable components.

Repair orders have demands for usable and defective components.
Plan Types

1-6 Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning Implementation and User's Guide Supplement

You can plan repair orders only in constrained plans

The repair may be constrained by part availability and repair capacity..
Set profile option MSC: Enable Advanced Constrain to Yes.
In Plan Option > Constraints tab, select constrain mode Constrained (Without Detailed
Scheduling).
You cannot use batch plan or online replan planning modes.
Order Types
The planning process uses these order types for repair orders:

Planned Repair Work Orders: Repair recommendations generated by Oracle

Advanced Supply Chain Planning. They generate supply.

Maintenance Work Orders: The work orders collected from Oracle Enterprise Asset
Management for maintenance work orders. They generate supply if Activity Type
is Rebuild.

Maintenance Work Order Demand: The work order demand collected from Oracle
Enterprise Asset Management for maintenance work orders. Component demand
for usable components

Defective Part Demand: A component requirement for a defective of the item on the
repair work order.

Returns Forecast: The planning process computes these if you instruct it to in the
plan options. Otherwise, feed it to the plan as a supply schedule. It nets against
Defective Part Demand.

Defective On-Hand: The on-hand of available material in defective subinventories.

It nets against Defective Part Demand.

Defectives In-Transit: Defective parts that have been shipped but not received. It
nets against Defective Part Demand.

Projected Available Balance (Defective): The defective parts available at the end of
each period. Defective parts available at the start of the period - Demands within
the period + Returns within the period.

Generate Planned Repair Orders

Repair orders are similar to make orders except:

Their sourcing is Repair at

The defective item is a component

Asset Intensive Planning 1-7

The usable item is the assembly

The repair structure dos not have the defective component in it; the planning process
creates it when it sees a Repair at sourcing rule.
If there is no repair structure, the planning process creates a repair work order without
it.
The process calculates the lead time from the routing.. If there is no routing, it uses the
value in item attribute Repair Lead Time. You can enter lead time in a simulation set as
well.
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning plans the due date of components according
to their offset percents. It loads the defective component to the first operation.
It plans resources by their offset percents.
The process plans for substitute components and alternate bills of material and
routings.
If you mark an asset as an outsourced assembly and a buy item, the planning engine
plans a buy order against your manufacturing partner.
If you transfer your defective parts to other organizations for repair, the planning
process plans the transfers.
Repair / Purchase Decision
You can assign sourcing rules to model your repair/purchase business model. For
example:

Give Repair at a higher sourcing priority than Buy from

If the plan cannot meet demands on time by repair, Oracle Advanced Supply Chain
Planning creates a planned purchase requisition.

Repair Scrap and Yield

If you scrap some of the repairable components before putting them into subinventory,
enter the rate in destination-only item-org attribute Scrap Rate.
If you ruin some of the repairable components during the repair process, enter the rate
in item attribute Repair Yield or in a simulation set.
The quantity of the repairable component is [Work order quantity * (1 Scrap Rate) *
Repair Yield].
These do not apply to the consumable components; they use the make component scrap
and yield item attributes.
Project Manufacturing Integration
The planning process links the maintenance work order to a project and task.
Buy orders that the process associatse with the work order have the same project and
task reference.

1-8 Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning Implementation and User's Guide Supplement

The project cost collector process passes these costs to the work order's project work in
process accounts, rather than the accounts associated with the asset or organization.

Use Planner Workbench

In Planner Workbench, the repair order types display similarly to the make order types.
There are fields unique to repair orders.
Supply, Demand, Supply/Demand, On Hand
In these context windows, you can see these attributes and filter on them:

Part Condition

Produce to Stock

Rebuild or Asset Activity

Class Code

Maintenance Plan

Activity Type

Pegging
You can see planned repair work orders, look upstream and downstream, and see
demand and supply pegging.
A repair work order for a rebuildable item pegs:

Up to a repair work order for the asset

Down to demands (material requirements) for its defective state as well as its
consumables.

If one of its components is repairable as well, to a demand and planned work order
against the repairable component

Down to demands (material requirements) for the repairable component's defective

state as well as its consumables

In Properties you can see Class Code and Asset Group

Horizontal Plan
You can see these order types:

Planned Repair Work Orders

Maintenance Work Orders

Asset Intensive Planning 1-9

Defective Part Demand

Returns Forecast

Defective On-Hand

Defectives In-Transit

Projected Available Balance (Defective)

You can select them in the preferences as well.

Horizontal Resource Plan
You can see resources used in these order types:

Planned Repair Work Orders

Maintenance Work Orders

You can select them in the preferences as well.

Vertical Plan
You can see these order types:

Planned Repair Work Orders

Maintenance Work Orders

Defective Part Demand

Returns Forecast

Defective On-Hand

Defectives In-Transit

Projected Available Balance (Defective)

Process Exception Messages

You see the Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning exception messages against repair
orders and some exception messages unique to repair orders as well.
The planning engine treats these orders as firm and does not reschedule them due to
resource overload or late demand replenishment.
Exception Details
You can see Part Condition.
Non-Rebuild Activity Types

1-10 Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning Implementation and User's Guide Supplement

Since these repair orders have neither repair structure nor nettable supply, you see
exception messages only for Material and Resource Capacity Exception Group.
Repair Work Order Exception Messages
Exception messages unique to repair orders are:

Late replenishment to maintenance work order demand

Maintenance work order resource overload

Late replenishment to maintenance work order demand Exception Message

The planning process issues this exception message in a constrained plan when the
supplies for a maintenance work order demand (Demand Satisfied Date) are due later
than the maintenance work order demand date (Schedule Date). The demand satisfied
date is the latest due date of the supplies pegged directly to the demand.
The information displayed for this exception message is:

Organization

End Item

Quantity

Work Order Number

Priority

Due Date: For the supply order

Demand Date

Days Late: Due date - Demand date

Maintenance work order resource overload Exception Message

The planning process issues this exception message when both of these occur in a
planning time bucket:

The required capacity is more than the available capacity

The load ratio is more than the exception set over-utilization. Load ration is
(Required capacity / Available capacity) * 100.

The information displayed for this exception message is:

Work Order Number

Resource

Asset Intensive Planning 1-11

Organization

Dept/Line

Start Constraint Date: The start date of the planning time bucket in which the
resource is overloaded, not the start date of the activity.

End Constraint Date: The start date of the last planning time bucket in which the
resource is overloaded, not the end date of the activity. While the overload remains
the same, the planning engine uses the same exception message

Overload: Required capacity - Available capacity

Release Planned Repair Orders

When you release Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning planned repair work orders
for items with item attribute Repair Module set to EAM:
