Scheduling a process through the sales order.

[diwakar]

In R12 implementation we are implementing for a CAB company. We have created an inventory item with lot. The lot will have the days which will indicate the number of remaining days in a financial year for which the car will be contracted. The lot number is referred as a Vehicle registration number. The stickering also will be done on car which in turn will generate revenue. When sales order is created and boked for this inventory item, can we schedule the stickering process through OM?

Hi Diwakar,

I can?t understand your requirement on cars.

Usually vehicle registration number are Serial Number, which can be tracked as individual since an install base record maintain all the related information. and you can use serial dff to capture all information related to car or cab details.

Please clarify why you need to schedule the stickering process we only schdule delivery process.?

Please explain me ur requirement clearly.
Regards,

Arshad

For ad sales i.e. we will put advertisement on cars for specific days and thus will generate the revenue against the same vehicle. The customer will do the process of sticking the ads on the CAR (stickering process). Hence the ad item is defined first in inventory, it's lot is mapped to vehicle registration number. The quantity in the lot refers to the number of days remaining to complete the financial year. We will create the sales order with ad item. Once the order is booked. Then we will have to schedule the stickering process through the sales order.

Hope the scenario is clear.

You may use Service Contracts to map the same requirements.

Service Contracts will give u more information then the sales order.
