Setting Up Other Oracle Products

Though outside processing revolves around your shop floor, the only required setup step in Work in Process is to define the outside processing valuation and variance accounts in each of your WIP accounting classes.

Define WIP Accounting Classes

For each accounting class you define, you must enter an outside processing valuation and variance accounting flexfield. This includes standard discrete, non-standard asset, non-standard expense, and repetitive assembly accounting classes. See: Defining WIP Accounting Classes.

Purchasing debits the outside processing valuation account when you receive outside processing items. It charges this account at either standard or purchase order actual, depending on whether the Standard Rate for the outside resource is set to Yes for standard or No for actual.

Master Scheduling/MRP and Capacity require no additional setup steps to support outside processing.
