Set Up Back-to-Back Transfer Flow
The topic explains what you need to do for setting up back-to-back transfer flow.
In the Oracle Product Information Management, ensure that the Item is Back-to-Back enabled.
In Oracle Global Order Promising:
1.
Set up a global sourcing rule with Type as Transfer from. Set the organization as the
organization requesting the transfer (example, Warehouse 1).
2.
Set up a local sourcing rule for the organization (in this example, Warehouse 1) Type as
Transfer from, from the organization that has the stock from which the transfer will take place
(example, Warehouse 2).
3.
Set up an ATP rule with the Promising Mode as Supply chain availability search.
4.
Ensure that the Supply chain availability search attributes are enabled according to your
requirements. For example, you might want the application to search components and resources to
include on-hand or in-transit Supply Types or fulfillment lines Demand Types.
5.
Set the ATP Rule Assignment as required.
6.
Set the sourcing assignments for the sourcing rules that you defined in steps 1 and 2.
7.
Ensure that the assignment level used for the global sourcing rule doesn't include any
Organization.
8.
Refresh and restart the Order Promising Server for ATP Rules and Sourcing.
With this setup:
•
The global rule is used to source the item from Warehouse 1 if there is stock available to
reserve.
•
If there's no stock on hand, Global Order Promising uses the local rule to transfer the item
from Warehouse 2 to Warehouse 1.

Yeah, you need to make sure the item is back-to-back enabled in PIM first, but you can actually configure ATP rules and sourcing rules in either order, as long as both are complete before assigning and activating them. Key thing is that your global and local sourcing rules work together and the ATP rule is set to supply chain availability search. At the end, refresh and restart the Order Promising Server to apply changes. Pretty sure that's the real flow-let me know if I'm missing something!
Do you have to set up ATP rules before sourcing rules for this, or is the order not strict? Little confused.
