Oracle Inventory

An inventory organization is a facility where you store and transact items. Before you can use Oracle Inventory, you must define one or more inventory organizations. Inventory organizations represent distinct entities in your enterprise and can be one of the following:

  • A physical entity such as a manufacturing facility, warehouse, or distribution centre.
  • A logical entity such as an item master organization, which you use to define items.
  • An inventory organization may have the following attributes: An inventory organization can have its own         location, ledger, costing method, workday calendar, and items
  • An inventory organization can share one or more of these characteristics with other                                       organizations.

Inventory Organization Structure

An inventory organization, where you store and transact items can have one or more subinventories. Subinventories are unique physical or logical separations of material inventory, such as raw material inventory, finished goods inventory, or defective goods inventory. In Oracle Inventory, all material within an organization is held in a subinventory. You must define at least one subinventory for every organization. You can track item quantities by subinventory as well as restrict items to specific subinventories. The subinventories in an inventory organization may be made up of one or more locators. You use locators to identify physical areas where you store inventory items. You can track items by locator and restrict items to a specific locator. Locator control is optional in Oracle Inventory.

  • Receiving Subinventory
  • Raw material subinventory
  • Manufacturing subinventory
  • Finished goods subinventory
  • Inspection subinventory
