One important aspect of working with Oracle Fusion Cloud is loading locators, which are used to define specific inventory storage locations. In this blog post, we will guide you through the process of loading locators in Oracle Fusion Cloud, helping you effectively manage your inventory and warehouse operations.

 

Step 1: Accessing Oracle Fusion Cloud

 

Log in to your Oracle Fusion Cloud account using your credentials.

Step 3: Defining Locator Types

 

On the "Manage Locators" page, click the "Locator Types" tab.

Define the various locator types based on your warehouse requirements. For example, you can have locator types such as "Aisle," "Bin," or "Shelf."

Configure additional settings for each locator type, such as capacity and default attributes.

Step 4: Creating Locator Groups

If you have multiple subinventories or organizations, go to the "Subinventories/Organizations" tab.

Associate each locator with the appropriate subinventory or organization, indicating where the inventory will be stored.

You can assign locators individually or use the "Mass Assign" option for efficient bulk assignment.

Step 7: Verifying and Reviewing

 

Double-check all the locator details and assignments to ensure accuracy.

Review any additional settings or attributes that may be relevant to your inventory management processes.
