The Oracle Integration Repository is a compilation of information about the service
endpoints exposed by the Oracle E-Business Suite of applications. It provides a
complete catalog of Oracle E-Business Suite's business service interfaces. The tool lets
users easily discover and deploy the appropriate business service interface for
integration with any system, application, or business partner.
The Oracle Integration Repository is shipped as part of the E-Business Suite. As your

Understanding Oracle Landed Cost
Management
Shipments Workbench
It is common that the financial flows do not mirror the physical supply chain
transactional flows. Oracle Landed Cost Management helps to link these two flows
together and provides visibility and traceability from one to the other. With the
Oracle Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench, companies can view the
real time accrual updates for a particular receipt or shipment. They can validate the
accuracy of a suppliers estimate by comparing estimated and actual costs and can
view the percentage of a particular cost component for a particular item.
Additionally, you can make use of all the flexible Oracle and E-Business Suite tools
to meet your own customized reporting requirements.
Using Oracle Landed Cost Management will provide your organization with several
benefits. Oracle Landed Cost Management will help organizations:
Maximize Profits
By illuminating "real" product costs, organizations have the opportunity to identify
areas for potential cost reduction. It also helps managers more accurately monitor
product performance against profitability targets and ensure estimated costs are in
line with actual costs.
Increase Competitiveness
When all of the charges, fees, duties and taxes are known, companies can more
strategically source products and components from lower cost foreign locations.
This also enables them to better justify contracts with vendors or potential
customers. Ultimately, they can price goods with the full understanding of the
charges associated with bringing an item to market.
Increase Visibility
Itemizing and tracking all acquisition costs and material cost elements as they apply
to a product enables organizations to better link their product supply flows with
their financial processing and reporting. In addition, tracking estimated costs as
soon as they are known gives decision makers more insight into their exposure for
budgeting and reporting purposes before invoices are ever received.
Release 12.1.2
Included the support for process manufacturing organizations
Release 12.1.3
Included the support for calculation of simulated landed cost
Oracle Landed Cost Management integrates with several other Oracle E-Business suite
applications during the processing of estimated and actual landed costs for an item. The
Oracle E-Business applications that integrate with Oracle Landed Cost Management
are:
Oracle Purchasing
Purchase order information is the baseline information used to itemize expected
shipment or receiving lines on which extended supply chain charges will be
applied. Oracle Landed Cost Management provides visibility into Oracle
Purchasing purchase order data to build expected shipments for charge application
and subsequent landed cost estimation calculations. When entering expected
shipments the reference information provided by Oracle Purchasing saves time and
decreases errors that might occur without automated access to this information.
After the purchase order information is available in Oracle Landed Cost
Management, expected values received from the purchase order such as, quantity
and price can be edited for estimated cost calculation purposes. Furthermore, all the
necessary data is provided to help arrive at an accurate three way match after an
invoice for a purchase order line or charge is entered into Oracle Payables.
Additionally, Oracle Landed Cost Management recovers the tax lines associated to
the purchase order that was originally calculated by EB-Tax, in order to include the
non-recoverable amounts into the landed cost.
Oracle Payables
Invoices created in Oracle Payables provide the actual cost information that
supports the actual landed cost calculations that occur in Landed Cost
Management.
Oracle Purchasing
Plus, Oracle Landed Cost Management can integrate with Oracle Advanced Pricing but
it is not required. Oracle recommends that you integrate with Oracle Advanced Pricing
so automatic charge calculation will occur in the processing of landed costs. Oracle
Landed Cost Management also provides a hook (an object that can be modified by you)
to enable you to load charges from external charge providers in the case where you are
using another charge defaulting rule besides Oracle Advanced Pricing. Otherwise, you
will have to enter all of the charge lines manually.
For information on customizing Oracle Landed Cost Management hooks, see Note ID:

After invoices are created and matched to the receipt of the item in Oracle Payables that
actual price information is passed to Oracle Landed Cost Management using two
concurrent programs (Matches Interface Import and Submit Pending Shipments). If you
are using Oracle Process Manufacturing an additional concurrent program (Landed
Cost Adjustments Import Process) needs to be performed so that Oracle Process
Manufacturing can obtain the estimated and actual price information from Oracle
Landed Cost Management for its processing.
The Landed Cost Adjustments Import Process is a concurrent program that belongs to
Oracle Process Manufacturing.
Using Oracle Landed Cost Management pages the actual landed cost for the shipment
can be viewed and analyzed with the estimated landed cost information.
3. Create a shipment for the items referenced on the purchase order using the Oracle
Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench.
For more information, see Creating Landed Cost Management Shipments, page 5-
8.
4. Create shipment lines for the items referenced on the purchase order using the
Oracle Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench.
For more information, see Entering Shipment Lines for the Shipment, page 5-13.

For more information, see Validating the Shipment, page 5-49.
9. Calculate estimated landed cost for the shipment using the Oracle Landed Cost
Management Shipments Workbench.
The Calculate process performs the validation process during its processing. Hence,
the Validate process does not need to be run separately.
For more information, see Calculating Estimated Landed Cost for the Shipment,
page 5-50.
10. (Optional) View the estimated landed cost that was calculated using the Oracle
Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench.
For more information, see Viewing Estimated Landed Cost for the Shipment, page

shipment.
12. Submit the estimated landed cost for the shipment using the Oracle Landed Cost
Management Shipments Workbench.
For more information, see Submitting the Shipment to Receiving, page 5-55.
15. (Optional) Repeat steps 13-14 until the estimated landed cost is satisfactory for the
shipment.
16. Create a receipt for the items on the landed cost management shipment using the
Find Expected Receipts page in Oracle Purchasing.
When creating the Receipt, on the Find Expected Receipts page you will use a
Source Type of LCM (Landed Cost Management) and the Shipment number. The
shipment number equals the shipment number plus the line group number. For
example, shipment 8 and line group 1 will be depicted as 8.1.
On the Receipts page - Lines tab, the quantity you can receive defaults from the
shipment number. The quantity fields are disabled for landed cost management
shipments to prevent partial receipts (when using Landed Cost as a Pre-Receiving
application) which will prevent the misallocation of charges in costing. During this
step you will specify the subinventory for each receipt line.
For information on creating a receipt, see the Receiving chapter in the Oracle
Purchasing User's Guide.
After the receipt of the item these steps occur:
Item cost for the item is updated in Inventory with the estimated landed cost.
Accounting accrual entries for the receipt are created using the estimated
landed cost.
If you are using Oracle Process Manufacturing (OPM), you must first run the
Landed Cost Adjustments Import Process in OPM before these steps occur:
Item cost for the item is updated in Inventory with the estimated landed cost.
Accounting accrual entries for the receipt are created using the estimated
landed cost.
For information on creating an invoice, see the Invoices chapter in the Oracle
Payables User's Guide.
For information on invoice matching to receipts option, see the Invoices chapter in
the Oracle Payables User's Guide.
19. Validate the invoice. After invoice validation the actual invoice information is
populated into the Oracle Landed Cost Management interfaces.
For information on validating, see the Invoices chapter in the Oracle Payables User's
Guide.
20. Repeat Steps 17-19 for all other invoices (freight, insurance and so on) that pertain
to the shipment.
21. Run the Matches Interface Import concurrent program using Oracle Landed Cost
Management.
This program imports the matched information from the Oracle Landed Cost
Management interface tables into definitive tables. This process also sets the landed
cost management shipments with Pending Matching field to Yes. At this time, the
actual landed cost calculation has not been performed yet.
Oracle recommends that this program be scheduled to run periodically in order to
not require any user intervention.
For more information, see Calculating and Importing Actual Landed Cost for the
Shipment, page 5-57.
22. Run the Submit Pending Shipments concurrent program using Oracle Landed Cost
Management.
This program performs the submit process again and calculates the actual landed
cost for the landed cost management shipment. After this process completes
successful you can view the actual landed cost using the Shipment Hierarchy and
Landed Cost Detail pages in Oracle Landed Cost Management.
Oracle recommends that this program be scheduled to run periodically in order to
not require any user intervention.
For more information, see Calculating and Importing Actual Landed Cost for the
If you are using Oracle Process Manufacturing (OPM), you must first run the
Landed Cost Adjustments Import Process in OPM before these steps occur:
Item cost adjustments transactions are created in Oracle Process Manufacturing

The Matches Interface Import program is responsible for importing the matched invoice
information from Oracle Payables into Oracle Landed Cost Management. During this
program execution, all shipments that need to be resubmitted that are being impacted
by the capture of actual amounts will be set as "Pending Matching" shipments. Pending
landed cost management shipments must be resubmitted, so that a new landed cost can
be figured out as "actual landed cost" and the differences between estimated and actual
landed costs can be posted to Oracle Cost Management.
Pending landed cost management shipments can be submitted either one by one,
through the Oracle Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench, or in batch,
through the Submit Pending Shipments concurrent program. The Submit Pending
Shipments program calculates actual landed cost and then performs the submit action
again for the shipment. In both cases, all the routines necessary to recalculate landed
costs and generate the Oracle Cost Management integration transactions are performed.

Oracle Landed Cost Management can be used as a service. In this scenario, after the
receipt of items into inventory the landed cost management shipment is automatically
created. The estimation of the item landed cost is also automatically calculated based on
the purchase documents price and the charge amounts given by Advanced Pricing.
All of the landed cost management calculation and integration processes are performed
using two concurrent programs (Landed Cost Integration Manager and Shipment
Interfaces Import), which can be scheduled to run on a periodic basis in order to not
require user intervention. After the programs have completed successfully you can
access the Oracle Landed Cost Management (Shipments Workbench) to:
View the estimated landed costs for a landed cost management shipment.
Update the estimated landed cost for a shipment that is not completed, if you are
using rules and the shipment complies with the rule.
Update the estimated landed cost information for a shipment that is completed, if
the Profile Option INL: Allow Updates to Completed Shipments is set to Yes.
Then, after invoices are created and matched for the receipt of the item in Oracle
Payables that actual landed cost information is passed to Oracle Landed Cost
2. (Optional) Assign the rule to an LCM as a service Inventory organization using the
Oracle Landed Cost Management LCM Options page.
For information on assigning the rule, see Setting Up Oracle Landed Cost
Management Options, page 2-35.
3. Create a purchase order for an item referencing an Inventory organization that does
not have pre-receiving in LCM enabled using Oracle Purchasing.
Ensure that the Invoice Match Option field for each purchase order line is set to
Receipt.
For information on creating a purchase order, see the Purchase Orders chapter in
the Oracle Purchasing User's Guide.
5. Create a receipt for the items on the purchase order using Oracle Purchasing.
For information on creating a receipt, see the Receiving chapter in the Oracle
6. Run the Landed Cost Integration Manager concurrent program using Oracle
Purchasing.
This program picks up purchase order receipt lines and sends them to the Oracle
Landed Cost Management shipment interface tables.
Oracle recommends that this program be scheduled to run in the back ground with
no user intervention required.
For more information, see Importing Estimated Landed Cost Information from
Receiving, page 6-8.
7. Run the Shipments Interface concurrent program using Oracle Landed Cost
Management.
The Shipments Interface program operates differently depending on whether a rule
has been assigned to an Inventory organization or not. If no rule has been assigned
to the Inventory organization, then this program picks up the Oracle Landed Cost
Management interface lines and processes them into landed cost management
shipments. This concurrent program also calls routines for charge calculation,
recovering taxes calculated for the purchase order lines, validation, landed cost
calculation, and submission.
If a rule has been assigned, the program picks up the Oracle Landed Cost
Management interface lines and processes them into landed cost management
shipments. If the shipments comply with the rule, the concurrent program will call
the routines for charge calculation, recovering taxes calculated for the purchase
order lines, validation, and landed cost calculation. These shipments are not
submitted for completion giving you the ability to manually update the estimated
landed cost information using the Shipments Workbench pages. These shipments
will have a Validated shipment status. The rest of the shipments that do not comply
with the rule will process as if no rule was assigned.
This concurrent program uses the same APIs as the Shipments Workbench.
Oracle recommends that this program be scheduled to run in the back ground with
no user intervention required.
For more information, see Importing Estimated Landed Cost Information from
Receiving, page 6-8.
8. View the estimated landed cost that was calculated from the receipt information
using the Oracle Landed Cost Management Shipments Workbench.

This step is only available if you are using a rule, and the shipment complies with
the rule.
For more information, see Maintaining Charge Lines for a Shipment that is Not
Completed, page 6-22.
11. Update associations for a shipment that is not completed using the Oracle Landed
Cost Management Manage Charges, Update Charge Line, or Manage Associations
pages.
This step is only available if you are using a rule, and the shipment complies with
the rule.
For more information, see Updating Associations for a Shipment that is Not
Completed, page 6-31.
12. Validate a shipment that is not completed using the Oracle Landed Cost

Guide.
22. Repeat Steps 19 - 21 for all other invoices (freight, insurance and so on) that pertain
to the shipment.
23. Run the Matches Interface Import concurrent program using Oracle Landed Cost
Management.
This program moves the matched information from Oracle Payables into the Oracle
Landed Cost Management integration tables. This process also sets the landed cost
management shipments with Pending Matching field to Yes. At this time, the actual
landed cost calculation has not been performed yet.
Oracle recommends that this program be scheduled to run in the back ground with
no user intervention required.
For more information see, Calculating and Importing Actual Landed Cost for the
Shipment, page 6-49.
