Title: Outside-the-box Solutions for OTM 5.5 in an EBS Environment
Speaker: Jeff Leidy - ACCO OTM Technical Lead
ACCO has just completed a fully integrated rollout of OTM v. 5.5 CU3 RU04 while running Oracle Applications E-Business Suite v. 11.5.10.2
Oracle EBS modules include OM, SE, INV, Financials, MFG and OTM and Fusion 10.1.3.3

• BPEL process flows that come seeded with Oracle Transportation Management
• Order Release
• Planned Shipments
• Shipment as Work
• Shipment Upload/WMS replanned
• Vouchers allocation to AP
• Three Regional Distribution Centers live on Order Planning and centralized Freight Payment
• Biggest challenges on our project include (in descending severity):
• WMS Replanning of Shipments
• Testing - how to generate/simulate volume
• EBS to OTM data normalization/synchronization
• Dates logic and mapping from EBS OM into OTM
• Modules Implemented:
• Core Transportation Management module
• Operational Planning module
• Freight Payment, Billing, and Claims module

We also upgraded to CU3 RU04 in the middle of the project. We originally implemented on CU2 and upgraded in early April.
