Oracle 1z0-1125-2 Oracle SCM Business Process Foundations Associate Rel 2 Exam Practice Test

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document2, when an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) outsources the manufacturing of products to a contract manufacturer (CM), it uses a purchase order (PO) to place an order with the CM. A purchase order is a document that specifies the terms and conditions of a purchase transaction between a buyer and a seller. The PO contains information such as item, quantity, price, delivery date, payment terms, etc. The PO serves as a legal contract between the OEM and the CM.

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document2, load planning data from files is the task that is used to upload an external forecast in the system. Load planning data from files is a task in Oracle SCM Cloud that allows the user to import data from external sources into the planning data repository. The user can upload various types of data, such as sales forecast, demand schedule, supply schedule, on-hand inventory, etc., using predefined or custom templates. The user can also validate, transform, and map the data before loading it into the system.

According to the Oracle Supply Planning Cloud User Guide2, while defining a supply plan, a planning administrator can select any of the four forecast process options, which include forecast spreading (B), forecast consumption ©, sales order explosion (D), and past due demands based on plan option values (E). Forecast spreading is the option to spread forecast demand across time periods based on a predefined pattern. Forecast consumption is the option to consume forecast demand by sales orders or other sources of demand. Sales order explosion is the option to explode sales orders into their component demands based on the bill of materials. Past due demands based on plan option values is the option to include or exclude past due demands in a supply plan based on the plan option settings. Past due demands based on supply network model (A) is not a forecast process option, but rather a supply network model parameter that determines how past due demands are handled in a supply network model.

According to the Oracle Supply Planning Cloud User Guide3, the plan parameter section contains several options that control how a supply plan is run and displayed. Some of these options are planning calendar (B), level member (D), and exception set (F). A planning calendar defines the time periods for which data is aggregated and displayed in a supply plan. A level member specifies the level of detail for which data is collected and displayed in a supply plan. An exception set defines a set of conditions that identify potential issues or opportunities in a supply plan. Forecast buckets (A), price list ©, and output measure (E) are not present in the plan parameter section.

According to the Oracle SCM Business Process Certified Foundations Associate Rel 2 document1, the Manufacturing Engineer and Production Supervisor are the two job roles required to define the Manufacturing Master Data. The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for creating and maintaining the manufacturing master data, such as items, bills of materials, routings, and work definitions. The Production Supervisor is responsible for creating and maintaining the production resources, such as work areas, work centers, and resources.

According to the Oracle Supply Chain Management Cloud: Plan to Produce training course2, sourcing rules and item attributes are two parameters that determine the release of planned orders in Demand Forecast to Supply Plan Process. Sourcing rules define how to replenish inventory or fulfill demand (A), and item attributes specify planning-related information such as make or buy, lead time, lot size, etc. ©. Demand schedule, sales orders, and external forecast are not parameters that determine the release of planned orders, but rather sources of demand that can be included in a supply plan.

 According to the Oracle SCM Business Process Certified Foundations Associate Rel 2 document1, production operator is the job role that is required to issue components to a work order. Production operator is a person who performs the production activities on the shop floor, such as reporting material and resource transactions, reporting output and scrap, printing labels and documents, etc. Production operator can use the Issue Material task in Oracle SCM Cloud to issue components to a work order. Components are the raw materials or subassemblies that are used to produce a finished good. Issuing components means that the components are moved from the inventory location to the work order location.

According to the Oracle Manufacturing Cloud User Guide1, plant parameters are settings that define the characteristics and behavior of a plant. Plant parameters include material parameters (A), manufacturing calendar (B), and work areas ©. Material parameters define how materials are managed and consumed in a plant, such as lot control, serial control, backflushing, etc. Manufacturing calendar defines the working days and hours for a plant or a work area. Work areas define the physical, geographical, or logical clusters of work centers that perform similar operations or activities. Work orders (D) are not plant parameters, but rather documents that specify the details of a production order that is executed in a plant.

According to the Oracle Inventory Management Cloud User Guide, reserving components against a work order is the process of allocating materials from inventory to production based on availability and priority. Reserving components against a work order requires the item structure of the finished product © as an input, which defines the components and their quantities that are needed to produce an item. Routing information of the finished product (A), manufacturing master data (B), and plant parameters (D) are not inputs required to reserve components against a work order, but rather inputs required for other processes such as work definition creation, contract manufacturing setup, or plant configuration.

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document2, forecast accuracy is a measure of how closely the forecast matches the actual demand. Two types of analysis that can be used to compare forecast accuracy of a plan in a given time period are: waterfall analysis and trend analysis. Waterfall analysis is a graphical representation of how forecast accuracy changes over time due to various factors, such as demand changes, forecast updates, plan adjustments, etc. Trend analysis is a statistical method of identifying patterns or trends in historical data and projecting them into the future.

According to the Oracle SCM Business Process Certified Foundations Associate Rel 2 document1, production operators can perform three tasks from the Dispatch List: report resource transactions, print work order traveler and product labels, and report material transactions. The Dispatch List is a page in Oracle SCM Cloud that shows the list of operations that are scheduled for production in a work area. Production operators can use the Dispatch List to perform various tasks related to production execution and reporting. Report resource transactions is a task that records the usage of resources, such as labor, machine, tools, etc., for an operation. Print work order traveler and product labels is a task that prints the documents that contain information about the work order and the product, such as item, quantity, operation sequence, routing instructions, quality specifications, etc. Report material transactions is a task that records the movement of material, such as issuing, returning, transferring, adjusting material for an operation.

According to the Oracle SCM Business Process Certified Foundations Associate Rel 2 document1, the purpose of defining the ABC Classification is to decide the frequency to perform inventory accuracy review. ABC Classification is a method of categorizing inventory items based on their value and usage. Items are classified into three groups: A, B, and C. A items are the most valuable and frequently used items, B items are moderately valuable and used items, and C items are the least valuable and rarely used items. The ABC Classification helps to prioritize the inventory management activities, such as cycle counting, physical counting, replenishment, etc.

According to the Oracle SCM Business Process Certified Foundations Associate Rel 2 document1, material reservation is the process of allocating material to a specific work order or operation. The key operational tasks associated with material reservation are: manage production, execute production, and manage inventory transactions. Manage production is the task of creating and releasing work orders, scheduling and rescheduling operations, and monitoring production progress. Execute production is the task of reporting material transactions, such as issuing, returning, transferring, and adjusting material. Manage inventory transactions is the task of performing inventory movements, such as receiving, delivering, transferring, and adjusting inventory.

According to the Oracle Manufacturing Cloud User Guide1, non-tracking components are components that do not require lot or serial control, and are not tracked in inventory. Non-tracking components are automatically transacted with two supply types: operation pull (A) and assembly pull (D). Operation pull components are transacted when an operation is completed. Assembly pull components are transacted when a work order is completed.

According to the Business Process Training and Certification - Oracle University document2, while planning, the administrator defining the supply plan has the option to setup items included in the supply chain. There are three types of statements that are true in this context:

• Production Plan to include items that are MPS Planned items
• Production Plan to include both items that are MPS and MRP Planned items
• Manufacturing Plan to include items that are MRP Planned items MPS (Master Production Schedule) is a plan that specifies the quantity and timing of finished goods to be produced. MRP (Material Requirements Planning) is a plan that calculates the quantity and timing of raw materials and components needed to produce the finished goods. A Production Plan is a type of supply plan that focuses on the production of finished goods. A Manufacturing Plan is a type of supply plan that covers both the production of finished goods and the procurement of raw materials and components.
