Oracle 1Z0-1079-26 Real Exam Questions [October 2026 Update]

Rate Management is the domain that separates Oracle Transportation Management (OTM) consultants who can configure the system from those who truly understand how it prices shipments – and the exam exploits this gap precisely. A Rate Offering is the top-level container: it defines which carrier is being rated, in which currency, and under what general terms. Inside the Rate Offering sit Rate Records – each Rate Record defines the specific rate applicable for a defined lane (origin-destination pair), a mode of transport, and an equipment type. Inside or alongside Rate Records sit Rate Services – the specific service levels (standard, express, economy) the carrier offers on those lanes. What the exam tests at implementation depth is the Rate Quality parameter: when OTM’s bulk planning engine evaluates multiple carriers and rates for the same shipment, Rate Quality controls how aggressively the system prefers lower-cost rates over higher-quality rates. Candidates who configure rate records correctly but cannot explain what Rate Quality does to bulk plan output – why one carrier is selected over a cheaper alternative – will lose points on the planning optimisation questions.

The shipment tendering workflow is where OTM’s automation capabilities diverge most sharply from manual transportation management – and the exam tests tendering at the configuration level rather than the user level. Auto-tender is the OTM capability that automatically sends a shipment tender to a carrier (and auto-accepts the carrier’s acknowledgement) without requiring a planner to manually review and approve each tender transaction. The configuration that controls whether auto-tender activates is a flag on the shipment planning parameters – specifically on the planning profile or the shipment’s override settings – and the exam tests this as an administrative configuration decision, not a per-shipment user action. Candidates who understand that tendering happens in OTM but have not specifically studied the auto-tender configuration flag fail the tendering scenario questions.

The GTM restricted party screening configuration deserves attention beyond what most candidates give it. Restricted party screening checks whether a trade party (a seller, buyer, consignee, freight forwarder, or other participant in a trade transaction) appears on a government-controlled list of sanctioned entities – individuals, companies, or organisations that licensed exporters are prohibited from doing business with. In GTM, the exam tests three distinct screening configurations: the Restricted Party Screening setup (which lists are screened against, how names are fuzzy-matched to handle spelling variations), the Excluded Words configuration (words that should be ignored in the matching logic – common words like “The” or “International” that would generate false positives if matched), and the user role security that controls who has read/write access versus read-only access for different country-based order sets.

Exam Snapshot

What Oracle Fusion Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud Does

Oracle Transportation Management (OTM) is Oracle’s cloud-native Transportation Management System – managing the full transportation lifecycle from order release receipt through shipment planning, carrier tendering, execution, tracking, and freight settlement. OTM is used by shippers (companies that move goods) and third-party logistics providers (3PLs) to optimise their transportation networks, automate carrier selection and tendering, and manage freight costs.

Oracle Global Trade Management (GTM) is the trade compliance module – managing the international trade compliance obligations that accompany cross-border shipments: product classification, restricted party screening, export license management, customs declaration, trade agreement qualification, and import/export regulatory compliance.

Domain 1: OTM Order Management

Order Releases are the primary inbound demand objects in OTM – representing a request to ship a quantity of goods from an origin location to a destination location by a required delivery date. Order Releases are received from external order management systems (Oracle SCM Order Management, ERP, or third-party systems) via OTM’s integration interfaces or entered manually.

Order Base vs. Order Release: The Order Base is the parent object that groups related Order Releases – representing a purchase order or sales order at the header level. Order Releases are the line-level ship requests that OTM actually plans and executes. The exam tests this two-level structure as the data model for inbound demand – correctly identifying which object carries which attributes.

Order Release agents: OTM uses agent-based automation to process Order Releases – configurable rules (conditions and actions) that fire when Order Releases arrive or change state. Common agent actions: automatically assign a shipment mode based on Order Release characteristics, copy documents from Order Base to Order Release, or trigger planning when a new Order Release is received. The exam tests order release agents as the implementation mechanism for automating order processing logic.

Multi-leg shipments: Some transportation scenarios require multiple legs – a domestic truck segment to a port, an ocean segment to a destination country, and a local delivery segment at the destination. OTM models multi-leg shipments by chaining individual shipment legs through intermediate locations (hubs, ports, cross-dock facilities). The exam tests multi-leg shipment configuration as an OTM implementation design decision – when to use it and how to configure the intermediate location type.

Domain 2: Shipment Planning and Rate Management

Bulk planning is OTM’s automated shipment planning engine – processing multiple Order Releases simultaneously to build optimised shipments. The Bulk Plan run evaluates available Order Releases against configured planning parameters and constructs shipments that minimise transportation cost while satisfying delivery constraints (pickup and delivery time windows, equipment capacity, carrier qualifications).

Planning parameters and profiles: A planning profile defines the set of rules and constraints the Bulk Plan uses – which carriers are eligible, what modes are considered, what consolidation rules apply, what the cost optimisation objective is (least cost, best service, or a weighted combination). The exam tests planning profile configuration as the primary knob for controlling bulk plan output.

Rate Offering → Rate Record → Rate Service hierarchy:

Rate Offering: The carrier agreement level – defines the carrier, currency, and agreement validity period. Multiple Rate Records exist within one Rate Offering.

Rate Record: The lane-level rate – defines origin region, destination region, mode, equipment type, and the rate basis (per mile, per cwt, per shipment). Rate Records define what the carrier charges for a described lane.

Rate Service: The service level within a Rate Record – standard (4-5 day), express (1-2 day), economy (7+ day). Different service levels carry different rate multipliers or add-ons.

Rate Quality: Rate Quality is a planning configuration parameter that controls how the bulk planning engine trades off cost against service quality when selecting between multiple carrier rate options. A high Rate Quality setting causes the planner to favour lower-cost rates even if service quality indicators are lower; a low Rate Quality setting preserves service quality at the expense of cost. The exam tests Rate Quality as a specific planning parameter that explains bulk plan carrier selection behaviour.

Accessorial charges: Accessorials are additional charges applied to a shipment beyond the base rate – fuel surcharges, liftgate fees, residential delivery charges, detention charges. Accessorials are configured as additional Rate Records or as modifiers attached to base Rate Records, applied when specific shipment conditions match the accessorial trigger criteria.

Domain 3: Fleet Management

Fleet management in OTM handles transportation executed by the shipper’s own vehicle fleet rather than third-party carriers. Fleet management objects include: Equipment Groups (vehicle type pools – defining the types and counts of vehicles available), Equipment (individual vehicle records with capacity, location, and availability status), and Driver records (with hours-of-service constraints, domicile location, and qualification ratings).

Fleet planning: OTM’s fleet planning optimiser creates routes for fleet vehicles – assigning Order Releases to vehicles, sequencing stops, respecting driver hours-of-service limits, and minimising total fleet cost. The exam tests fleet planning as a distinct planning mode from carrier-based bulk planning.

The planning option SECURE RESOURCES: NOT_STARTED: This specific shipment status indicates a shipment that has been planned but has not yet had resources (carriers or vehicles) secured for it. When a new order must be added to an existing multi-stop shipment in SECURE RESOURCES: NOT_STARTED status, the exam tests which planning option allows the new order to be inserted into the existing shipment plan rather than creating a new separate shipment.

Domain 4: Track and Trace, Freight Settlement, and Data Management

Track and Trace: OTM tracks shipment status from tender acceptance through delivery – receiving status updates from carriers (via EDI 214 transactions, carrier portal API calls, or telematics feeds) and providing visibility to shippers and customers. Track and Trace events include: Departed Origin, Arrived Intermediate, Departed Intermediate, Arrived Destination, Proof of Delivery. The exam tests event management configuration – which events trigger status updates, how delays generate exception alerts, and how proof-of-delivery confirmation updates the shipment record.

Freight Settlement: Freight Settlement manages the financial reconciliation between the shipper and carrier – comparing the planned freight cost (from the OTM rate engine) against the carrier’s invoice and identifying variances. Invoice checks in OTM verify that the carrier invoice amount matches the expected shipment cost within a configured tolerance. Invoices that fall within tolerance are auto-approved; those outside tolerance are flagged for manual review. The exam tests invoice check configuration as the freight settlement audit mechanism.

OTM Data Management – Data Dictionary and Table Structures: OTM’s Data Dictionary documents the OTM data model – the tables, columns, and relationships used in OTM’s database. Implementors and developers use the Data Dictionary to understand how OTM stores data, how to write custom queries and reports, and how to configure FBDI-based data migration. The exam tests the Data Dictionary as the correct tool for understanding OTM table structures and data model relationships, not as a user-facing reporting tool.

Reports and dashboards: OTM reports are built using its Report Builder and must be registered for execution before they can be run from the OTM interface. The exam tests the specific step required after creating a report – registering it – as a precise procedural question.

Domain 5: Global Trade Management (GTM)

Trade Items are the product records in GTM – each carrying the Harmonised System (HS) tariff code that classifies the product for customs purposes, the country of origin, and any applicable export control classifications. Trade Item configuration drives duties calculation, license determination, and country-of-origin certification.

Restricted Party Screening (RPS): GTM’s RPS capability screens trade parties against government-controlled sanctioned party lists – OFAC, BIS Denied Persons, UN consolidated lists. Configuration includes: which lists are loaded and actively screened, the matching algorithm settings (exact match versus fuzzy match – and the threshold for fuzzy match similarity), and the Excluded Words list (words like “Corporation” or “The” that should be ignored in matching because they appear on so many company names that matching on them creates false positives). The exam tests Excluded Words as a specific RPS configuration option introduced in a prior OTM release that remains actively tested.

Sanctioned Territory Screening: Beyond individual party screening, GTM screens against sanctioned territories – countries or regions subject to trade embargoes or restrictions. GTM’s compliance rules for sanctioned territory screening evaluate the origin and destination of a trade transaction against configured territory restriction rules. The exam tests sanctioned territory compliance as a distinct configuration from restricted party screening.

License Agreements: An export or import license is a government-issued authorisation to conduct a specific trade transaction – to export a controlled good to a specific destination country, or to import a regulated item. GTM manages license agreements by linking them to eligible trade transactions, tracking the license’s remaining available quantity (licenses are often quantity-limited), and automatically assigning the appropriate license to a trade transaction based on configured eligibility criteria. The automatic license assignment action in GTM is the specific function the exam tests – candidates must identify the correct GTM action to trigger automatic license determination on a trade transaction.

Customs Declaration: GTM manages the customs declaration process – generating the export declaration or import declaration documents required by customs authorities. GTM’s customs declaration uses aggregation criteria to consolidate multiple trade transaction lines into fewer customs declaration lines where permitted – for example, grouping all transaction lines for the same HS code and country of origin into one customs line. The exam tests aggregation criteria configuration as the mechanism for controlling declaration line consolidation.

Trade Agreements: GTM manages preferential trade agreements – Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and other preferential arrangements that reduce or eliminate duties for qualifying goods. GTM’s trade agreement qualification logic determines whether a shipment’s goods meet the rules of origin for a specific trade agreement – qualifying the shipment for preferential duty treatment. The exam tests trade agreement qualification as a GTM configuration that can reduce total landed cost.

FAQ’s

What is the Oracle 1Z0-1079-26 certification?

1Z0-1079-26 is the Oracle Fusion Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud 2026 Implementation Professional exam. It validates expertise in implementing Oracle OTM and GTM – covering order management, shipment planning, rate management, fleet management, freight settlement, track and trace, restricted party screening, customs declaration, license management, and trade agreements.

What is Rate Quality in Oracle Transportation Management?

Rate Quality is a bulk planning configuration parameter that controls how the planning engine trades off cost against service quality when selecting between multiple carrier rate options. A higher Rate Quality value causes the planner to favour lower-cost rates even at reduced service quality; a lower value protects service quality at higher cost. It explains why a bulk plan selects a carrier that is not the cheapest option available.

What is the Rate Management hierarchy in OTM?

The hierarchy is Rate Offering (the carrier agreement container – carrier, currency, agreement period) → Rate Record (the lane-level rate – origin, destination, mode, equipment type, rate basis) → Rate Service (the service level within the rate record – standard, express, economy). All three must be configured for a carrier’s rates to be usable in shipment planning.

What is Restricted Party Screening in Oracle GTM?

Restricted Party Screening checks trade party names against government-controlled sanctioned entity lists – OFAC, BIS Denied Persons, and others. GTM configuration includes which lists are active, the matching algorithm settings, and the Excluded Words list – words that appear so commonly in company names that matching on them would create false positives and should be ignored.

How does GTM automatically assign a license to a trade transaction?

GTM provides a specific automatic license determination action that evaluates a trade transaction’s characteristics (product, destination country, trade party) against configured license eligibility criteria and assigns the applicable license automatically – including decrementing the license’s remaining available quantity. This replaces manual license selection by the compliance officer.

What step is required after creating a report in Oracle Transportation Management?

After creating a report, it must be registered for execution before it can be run from the OTM interface. Report registration is the specific post-creation step the exam tests – without it, the report exists but cannot be executed by users.

What is the passing score for the 1Z0-1079-26 exam?

The passing score is 68%. The exam is multiple-choice format delivered through Pearson VUE either online-proctored or at a test centre. The cost is USD $245. A Delta exam (1D0-1079-26-D) is available for candidates upgrading from the prior-year certification.
