Back-to-Back Supply Creation On-Hand Flow
The back-to-back on-hand available (ATP) flow is the simplest in terms of the number of steps that constitute the flow. This flow occurs where on hand supply is available in the fulfillment warehouse for the ordered back-to-back item at the time of order promising. Because on-hand goods already exist in the form of on hand, Oracle Supply Chain Orchestration directly sends a request to reserve the on hand quantity against the back-to-back sales order. You can ship the sales order immediately after the reservation is created.
The following figure shows the back-to-back supply creation on-hand flow.
How Back-to-Back Fulfillment Works
The back-to-back process flow is one in which specific sales order demand triggers supply creation and a link is established between the sales order and the supply.
An organization procures goods from an internal or external supplier or source to a specific warehouse from where you can combine those goods with others to create a single shipment to the customer.
Back-to-back supply processes are similar to regular supply processes that deliver supply to a warehouse except for one difference; the back-to-back supply is always reserved to an order management fulfillment line.
At a high level, you can think of back-to-back fulfillment as a three-step process:
1.Creation of a customer sales order (source of demand).
2.Creation and fulfillment of supply document (source of supply) to the fulfillment warehouse.
3.Shipment of sales order from the fulfillment warehouse to the customer.
However, the back-to-back flow is truly a highly integrated process flow involving several Oracle Fusion Cloud applications. The following figure shows the back-to-back process flow in detail. An explanation for each number follows the figure.

Overview of Back-to-Back Fulfillment
The back-to-back fulfillment process is one in which specific sales order demand triggers supply creation, and a link is established between the sales order and the supply.
Note: Back-to-back flow is currently supported only for discrete manufacturing.
The following figure provides a high-level flow diagram showing the back-to-back supply creation and fulfillment process flow.
Back-to-back fulfillment is where supply is procured and then received at a warehouse only after an order is placed.
The supply is reserved against a sales order until shipping.
This process provides support to create and link supply after a sales order is entered and scheduled, allowing you to reduce your inventory while maintaining the ability to respond to customer demands.
You create supply for a back-to-back order using one or more of the following back-to-back flows:
•Buy: Procurement from an external supplier.
•Make: Production in an internal manufacturing facility (includes in-house manufacturing and contract manufacturing).
•Transfer: Transfer from another warehouse.
•On hand: Reservation of on-hand supply in the fulfillment organization.
Note: For information about back-to-back flows for contract manufacturing, see the Implementing Contract Manufacturing chapter in this guide.
After the supply is received into the fulfillment warehouse, the back-to-back order is ready for shipment to the customer.
