The Purchasing Document Open Interface concurrent program was replaced by two new concurrent programs Import Price Catalogs and Import Standard Purchase Orders. Import Price Catalogs concurrent program is used to import Catalog Quotations, Standard Quotations, and Blanket Purchase Agreements. Import Standard Purchase Orders concurrent program is used to import Unapproved or Approved Standard Purchase Orders.
Import Standard Purchase OrdersPre-requisites:
Suppliers, sites and contacts
Buyers
Line Types
Items
Interface Tables:
PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE
PO_LINES_INTERFACE
PO_DISTRIBUTIONS_INTERFACE
PO_INTERFACE_ERRORS (Fallouts)
Interface Program:
Import Standard Purchase Orders.
Base Tables:
PO_HEADERS_ALL
PO_LINES_ALL
PO_DISTRIBUTIONS_ALL
PO_LINE_LOCATIONS_ALL
Validations:Header:
Check if OU name is valid
Check if Supplier is valid
Check if Supplier site is valid
Check if buyer is valid
Check if Payment term is valid
Check if Bill to and ship to are valid
Check if FOB, freight terms are valid
Lines:
Check if Line_type, ship_to_org, item, uom, ship_to_location_id, requestor, charge_account, deliver_to_location are valid
General:
Check for duplicate records in interface tables
Check if the record already exists in base tables.
Some important columns that need to be populated in the interface tables:
PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE:
INTERFACE_HEADER_ID (PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE_S.NEXTVAL), BATCH_ID, ORG_ID, INTERFACE_SOURCE_CODE, ACTION (‘ORIGINAL’,'UPDATE’,'REPLACE’), GROUP_CODE, DOCUMENT_TYPE_CODE, PO_HEADER_ID (NULL), RELEASE_ID, RELEASE_NUM, CURRENCY_CODE, RATE, AGENT_NAME, VENDOR_ID, VENDOR_SITE_ID, SHIP_TO_LOCATION, BILL_TO_LOCATION, PAYMENT_TERMS
PO_LINES_INTERFACE:
INTERFACE_LINE_ID, INTERFACE_HEADER_ID, LINE_NUM, SHIPMENT_NUM, ITEM, REQUISITION_LINE_ID, UOM, UNIT_PRICE, FREIGHT_TERMS, FOB
PO_DISTRIBUTIONS_INTERFACE:
INTERFACE_LINE_ID, INTERFACE_HEADER_ID, INTERFACE_DISTRIBUTION_ID, DISTRIBUTION_NUM, QUANTITY_ORDERED, QTY_DELIVERED, QTY_BILLED, QTY_CANCELLED, DELIVER_TO_LOCATION_ID, DELIVER_TO_PERSON_ID, SET_OF_BOOKS, CHARGE_ACCT, AMOUNT_BILLED.
Import Blanket Purchase Agreements:Interface Tables:
PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE
PO_LINES_INTERFACE
Interface program: Import Price Catalogs
Base tables:PO_HEADERS_ALL
PO_LINES_ALL
PO_LINE_LOCATIONS_ALL
Example:Suppose you want to create a blanket with one line and two price breaks and the details for the price break are as below:
1) Quantity = 500, price = 10, effective date from ’01-JAN-2006′ to
’31-JUN-2006′
2) Quantity = 500, price = 11, effective date from ’01-JUL-2006′ to
’01-JAN-2007′
To create the above the BPA, you would create ONE record in PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE and THREE records in PO_LINES_INTERFACE
LINE1: It will have only the line information. LINE NUM would be 1.
LINE2: For the first Price Break details, LINE NUM will be the same as above i.e. 1. SHIPMENT_NUM would be 1 and SHIPMENT_TYPE would be ‘PRICE BREAK’
LINE3: For the second Price Break details, LINE NUM will be the same as above i.e. 1. SHIPMENT_NUM would be 2 and SHIPMENT_TYPE would be ‘PRICE BREAK’
All the line-level records above must have the same INTERFACE_HEADER_ID.
