According to the Oracle Manufacturing Cloud User Guide 1 , non-tracking components are components that do not require lot or serial control, and are not tracked in inventory. Non-tracking components are automatically transacted with two supply types: operation pull (A) and assembly pull (D). Operation pull components are transacted when an operation is completed. Assembly pull components are transacted when a work order is completed.

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document 2 , when an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) outsources the manufacturing of products to a contract manufacturer (CM), it uses a purchase order (PO) to place an order with the CM. A purchase order is a document that specifies the terms and conditions of a purchase transaction between a buyer and a seller. The PO contains information such as item, quantity, price, delivery date, payment terms, etc. The PO serves as a legal contract between the OEM and the CM.

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document 2 , load planning data from files is the task that is used to upload an external forecast in the system.

Rejected quantity is the amount of output that does not meet the quality standards and is sent back to the previous operation or work area. Scrap quantity is the amount of output that is wasted or discarded due to defects or errors. Completed quantity is the amount of output that meets the quality standards and is ready for the next operation or work area.

According to the Oracle Supply Planning Cloud User Guide 1 , there are four types of demand information that can be included as demand in an Oracle supply plan: production plan (A), manual forecast ©, demand forecast (D), and sales orders. A production plan is a high-level plan that specifies the quantity and timing of finished goods to be produced. A manual forecast is a user-defined forecast that can be entered or imported into a supply plan. A demand forecast is a statistical forecast that is generated by Oracle Demand Management Cloud or another forecasting system. Sales orders are confirmed orders from customers that have been entered into Oracle Order Management Cloud or another order management system. A build plan (B) is not a type of demand information that can be included as demand in an Oracle supply plan, but rather an output of a supply plan that specifies the quantity and timing of production orders to be executed.
