Finally! An OE_Order_PUB.Process_Order Script That Works!
December 6th, 2007
Recently I was looking for any working example of the OE_Order_PUB.Process_Order API to use for a volume test I wanted to setup. The idea would be to identify a base script that with minimal changes could be used to create and book a mass amount of sales orders. I scoured Metalink and Google, and for the longest time I could not identify a single working example. Many authors claimed to have posted an OE_Order_PUB.Process_Order script that, with slight modifications, are working examples, but this never was the case. There was always syntax or incorrect API parameter issues with each script I encountered.
Additionally, to create a sales order header, at minimum you’ll need to specify a customer, price list, currency and any required descriptive flexfield values dictated by your setups. You may also need a customer purchase order number if you’re order type has been setup to require it before booking. The code excerpt below shows this information along with other required data that is needed to produce an order header:
l_header_rec.operation := OE_GLOBALS.G_OPR_CREATE;
l_header_rec.order_type_id := 100000;
l_header_rec.sold_to_org_id := 1000;
l_header_rec.price_list_id := 100;
l_header_rec.pricing_date := SYSDATE;
l_header_rec.transactional_curr_code := ‘USD’;
l_header_rec.flow_status_code:=’ENTERED’;
l_header_rec.cust_po_number := ‘123′;
l_header_rec.attribute1 := ‘ABC’;
The script also doesn’t create any order lines, so this code would also have to be added. All that the OE_Order_PUB.Process_Order API needs to create an order line is an ordered item, quantity, and any required descriptive flexfield values that may be needed.
l_line_tbl(1).inventory_item_id := 201775;
l_line_tbl(1).ordered_quantity := 1;
l_line_tbl(1).attribute1 := ‘ABC’;
At the beginning of the script you will also need to add an API call to dbms_application_info.set_client_info to set the organization context as well as initializing the user, responsibility, and application under which the order(s) will be created.
dbms_application_info.set_client_info(100000);
…
fnd_global.apps_initialize(l_user, l_resp, l_appl);
Since I want this script to create not just one order, but many orders, I needed to insert a loop into the script with parameters that let me control how many orders to create, and whether to enable or disable debug. For good performance and to avoid exceeding any buffer limitations, a debug “switch” is a good things to have, especially when creating hundreds or even thousands of sales orders.
l_debug_level number := 0; — OM DEBUG LEVEL (MAX 5)
l_no_orders number := 100; — NO OF ORDERS
…
for i in 1..l_no_orders loop — BEGIN LOOP
…
if (l_debug_level > 0) then
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (’debug message here’);
end if;
…
end loop; — END LOOP
With these modifications in place, I now have a working script that will create a mass amount of sales orders for the volume test I need. I hope this comes in handy for you!

I found it very useful. Thank You.
2. Mou | January 2nd, 2008 at 1:29 am
Hi Bryan,
Thanks for the article, nice information, presented well.
But when I tried running the script with all correct values from the DB, it throws me an error,
‘ FND-FLEX-NULL SEGMENT’ and return status as E.
Could you please help me out what could be the issue
3. bryan | January 2nd, 2008 at 7:53 am
Hi Mou,
Do you have any order header or order line DFF values that are required? If so, you may need to populate these values in this script. For example, l_header_rec.attribute1 := ‘123′;
You might be doing this already, but wanted to check first before we look at other causes.
Bryan
4. Mou | January 2nd, 2008 at 3:42 pm
Hi Bryan,
Yes you are right, I just looked on the sales orders form that one of the DFF value is mandatory, I just populated and it worked out!
Thanks a lot!

5. Arun | April 2nd, 2008 at 1:29 am
Hi Bryan,
It is absolutely usefull.
Also can you help me to create a paid-Sales order using this api.
the business requirement is to pay the order while creating or before booking the sales ordr. e.g oline ticket booking.
thanks for your time,
>arun
6. Indu | April 18th, 2008 at 7:16 am
Hi Bryan,
I want to create many orders.
i call the API in a loop and initialize the header records to miss_record.
But still then only one order is created for every run of my program. How to handle this?
Thanks,
Indu

Hi Bryan,
Thanks for such an useful article. Can u plz send me the code for cancellation of order line? Please send me ASAP.

Thanks a lot… Just needed this…
9. Pradip | July 22nd, 2008 at 11:27 am
i am unable to use this in r12 vision database…its gives me errors
SQL_PLSQL_ERROR: N, ROUTINE, MO_GLOBAL.VALIDATE_ORGID_PUB_API, N, ERRNO, -20001, N, REASON, ORA-20001: in Package OE_Order_PUB Procedure Process_Order
message index is: 1
if u can also tell the defult org and operationg on the demo instance
i can try to run it
10. bryan | July 22nd, 2008 at 11:56 am
I haven’t run this code in R12, so I’m unsure as to what changes would be needed to make it compadible. I don’t know the default org in the Vision R12 instance off hand.
If you figure out what changes are needed to successfully run the script in R12 I definitely would be interested to know what changes were needed.
Thanks,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
I want to create an order by using the api oe_order_pub.order_proceess. But when I am using the given code for my parameter values then There is no output is coming.
Can you send the code again to my ID.
It would be helpful for me.
Thanks,

I am finding difficulties while updating payment_term_id,ordered_quantity ,unit_selling_price based on some custom conditions.
if a=0 then
l_line_tbl (l_num_ctr).payment_term_id := 1185;
elsif a=1 then
l_line_tbl (l_num_ctr).shipping_method_code := l_shipping_method_code;
elsif……..
API is not returning code is succes.But values are no getting updated…
what could be the resons..
pls help me in this issue…
13. Rahul | August 21st, 2008 at 10:40 am
I am using this API in BPEL for creating the order and uupdating the order.
But BPEl does not support the table type.
Then what should i do in this case.
For this I’ve created the object type of the table type and then the VARRAY.
But still this is not working.
Please help me how I can do this without using the Table type as the parameter.
I mean I’ve to change the table type in to the any other type of collection.
Thanks in advance

Advance Thank You,
Regards

Hi Bryan,
In roder to use the above script in R12, please execute the below
exec mo_global.init(’ONT’)
exec mo_global.set_policy_context(’S',’>’)
here Your OU is your operating unit.
Then it work,
Cheers,

good posts! especially to someone new in OM module.
I’m trying to find something useful.. this is just it.
keep it up.. i will research more on how-to on other stuff.
again thanks!
18. Sumit | March 25th, 2009 at 11:22 pm
Hi Bryan, this is really a very good post. I am able to create the sales order and order lines using this script. I need to create many order with several lines. Using this script I can created multiple orders but all of them will have only one order line. Please let me know how to handle this requirement to have multiple lines per order and at the same time I should be able to create multiple orders.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have used the OE_ORDER_PUB.Process_Order
for importing orders from legacy…all the items are getting processed to Awaiting_Shipping ..except the items on which never a sales order has been created …
When i import a sales line for an item which has been newly created then it is getting imported to sale order line but the status is not getting transformed from BOOKING to AWAITING SHIPPING…
If i delete the line and then manually create the same line then the stauts gets changed to Awaiting Shipping..so there is no issues for item creation also ..
can any body through some light onthis strange behviour,,
20. Ganesh | April 7th, 2009 at 9:47 pm
Hi Bryan ,
Thanks Very much …
;)
21. shardool | November 10th, 2009 at 2:39 pm
Hi ,
I have a requirement where I need to create Line Items for the Sales Order. The input is an XML. I talked to someone at Oracle and they suggested that I can use the Process Order API to create the Line Items but I need to first populate a PL/SQL table with the Line Item information and then pass the reference of that table to the API call.
Does anybody have a working solution that does this or an example.
I will appreciate any help with this.
Thanks
