Your supply chain organization needs to include important project information on internal ordermovement activities.

This is the correct sequence of the process to update project attributes on transfer orders using file-based data import template.A transfer order is a document that initiates the movement of material between warehouses within the enterprise1.Project attributes are the information that identifies the project, task, and expenditure type for each transfer order line2.You can use file-based data import template to update project attributes on transfer orders by following these steps3:

SCO gets default values for the project attributes not imported: Supply Chain Orchestration (SCO) is a service that orchestrates the fulfillment of supply requests from various sources, such as sales orders, planning recommendations, or inventory replenishment. SCO gets the default values for the project attributes that are not imported from the file-based data import template. The default values are derived from the project defaulting and enrichment rules that you set up in the Manage Supply Order Defaulting and Enrichment Rules task.

SCO performs a project accounting transaction control (PATC): SCO performs a validation of the project attributes against the project accounting transaction control (PATC) rules that you define in the Manage Project Transaction Sources task. PATC rules determine whether the project attributes are valid and consistent for each transfer order line. If the project attributes pass the validation, SCO sends them to Inventory Management for transfer order creation. If the project attributes fail the validation, SCO rejects them and logs the errors in the Supply Chain Orchestration Interface table.

SCO sends validated attributes to Inventory Management for transfer order: SCO sends the validated project attributes along with other transfer order information to Inventory Management for transfer order creation. Inventory Management is a service that manages the flow of material within and across warehouses. Inventory Management creates the transfer order based on the information received from SCO and assigns a unique document number to it.

Inventory management updates transfer order with new attributes: Inventory Management updates the transfer order with the new project attributes that are imported from the file-based data import template. You can view the updated project attributes on the transfer order lines in the Manage Transfer Orders page in the Inventory Management work area.
