The Production Order to Cost Update process within Oracle Manufacturing Business Process (OMBP)

in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM ensures accurate cost calculations by capturing and updating costs

associated with production orders, such as materials, labor, and overhead. This accuracy supports

better decision-making and improves profitability by enabling precise cost analysis and pricing

strategies. Option A is irrelevant as it ties to CRM, not cost updates. Option B exaggerates

automation—human oversight remains necessary. Option D focuses on real-time updates, which is

secondary to the primary benefit of accuracy emphasized in Oracle documentation.

Inventory Management in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM ensures optimal inventory levels by tracking

stock movement, availability, and replenishment needs across warehouses and supply chains. It

monitors quantities on hand, in transit, and on order, using real-time data to prevent overstocking or

stockouts. For instance, if a product’s stock drops below a reorder point, the system triggers a

replenishment alert. Option A is incorrect—reducing supplier costs is a procurement goal, not

Inventory Management’s focus, which is stock optimization. Option B is wrong as it manages

warehouse stock, not just supplier shipments. This function balances inventory costs with service

levels, supporting efficient operations and customer satisfaction by ensuring products are available

when needed without tying up excess capital.

The Supply Chain Orchestration (SCO) process in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM is a pivotal feature that

automates the execution of supply chain tasks across multiple applications, including procurement,

manufacturing, and inventory management. It ensures seamless end-to-end process integration by

coordinating activities like order fulfillment, material transfers, and production scheduling. Option A

is incorrect because SCO extends beyond warehouse operations to integrate with procurement and

manufacturing. Option C is also inaccurate as SCO eliminates manual tracking by leveraging

automation, improving efficiency and visibility across the supply chain. This capability reduces delays

and enhances coordination, aligning with Oracle’s goal of a connected supply chain ecosystem.

Inventory Management (D) in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM ensures optimal inventory levels by tracking

stock movement—receipts, transfers, and consumption—and maintaining availability data across

warehouses. For example, if stock drops below a reorder point (e.g., 100 units), it triggers

replenishment to avoid stockouts while preventing overstocking (e.g., holding 1,000 units when

demand is 200). Option A (Supplier Qualification) evaluates suppliers, not inventory levels. Option B

(Manufacturing Execution) tracks production, not overall stock. Option C (Cost Accounting) analyzes

costs, not physical stock movement. Inventory Management balances service levels with cost

efficiency, using real-time data to adjust stock dynamically, critical for operational success and

customer satisfaction.

The Oracle Redwood Design System enhances Oracle Fusion Applications SCM’s user experience with

Simplified User Interface (UI) (C) and Advanced Data Visualization (D). The Simplified UI offers an

intuitive, clutter-free design with consistent layouts and minimal clicks—e.g., a planner can access

demand forecasts in two steps instead of navigating complex menus, boosting productivity.

Advanced Data Visualization provides interactive charts and dashboards (e.g., a heat map of

inventory levels), enabling users to quickly interpret complex data and make informed decisions.

Option A (Enhanced Mobile Accessibility) is valuable but less transformative than UI simplicity and

visualization for daily SCM tasks. Option B (Automated Task Management) is a functional feature, not

a UX design element. Together, C and D reduce learning curves, enhance decision-making, and

elevate user satisfaction.
