As for OTM and WMS integration - it is supposed to be significantly improved in the next drop of the EBS/OTM integration, but unfortunately I don't have any information on when that may be released. However, the following information was presented in the CU04 RU01 release notes, which is related:
Quote:
OTM Integration with EBS WMS Appointments
A new Dock Door Synch program is available from EBS. This will create all locations that have dock doors along with generating the dock doors. This is a batch load of these locations into OTM.
Users will create dock door appointments in OTM. Upon creation/modification/removal of an appointment a shipment update is sent to EBS, the appointment details are available at the Shipment Stop level. Updates to these appointments only happen in OTM, changes to these appointment details will not be permitted in EBS. All modifications to the appointments are expected to take place in OTM and sent via the PlannedShipmentXML to EBS. This integration is available with version 12.1 of EBS WMS
OTM Integration with EBS APS
The EBS APS product manages the supply chain planning. OTM sends an updated Order Release to EBS APS anytime the Latest Estimated Delivery Date is populated or changes. EBS APS can then reflect the new arrival date and adjust the supply chain plan appropriately for Purchase Orders and Internal Sales Orders. The Latest Estimated Delivery Date field was added in 5.5 CU4 and stores the latest date of all of the shipments on which the Order Release resides. This integration is available with EBS APS 12.1.
