ORACLE TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT CORE COMPETENCE SELF-STUDY CBT

How This Course Is Organised

The Oracle Transportation Management (OTM) course teaches you the most widely used core functional components from a buy perspective. This intensive course covers order management, transportation planning of direct, multi-stop, and multi-leg shipments, the tendering/booking and acceptance process, and visibility.


You'll learn about End-to-end Shipment Workflows, what data is required to build direct, multi-stop, and multi-leg buy shipments via actions and bulk planning. Start by entering data for locations, calendars, carriers (service providers), and other data required for entering purchase orders and order releases. Create rate structures for the transport modes of truckload, less-than-truckload, and ocean and then plan buy shipments for these modes. See how a service provider accepts or declines tenders and enters buy shipment tracking events once a shipment is in transit.


You'll also learn about and understand the core functionality of Oracle Transportation Management from from the buy shipment perspective so that you can quickly get up and running on OTM at your facility.


This course is designed for Oracle Transportation Management (OTM) version 5.5 and above.
