Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Route Optimization with SuiteFleet

1. Start with the Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM sales order

Open the sales order 700184 for Blue Ridge Industrial Supply and inspect its delivery destination, line quantities, and configured SuiteFleet relationship. The example contains FUS-100 | Hydraulic coupling | 4 EA and FUS-200 | Mounting bracket | 6 EA.

Review the submitted order and its fulfillment lines. Resolve holds and check reservation, requested dates, and warehouse readiness before releasing the selected shipping allocation.

Fusion orchestrates fulfillment at line level. A single order line can split into several fulfillment lines, each with its own schedule and shipment relationship. Retain both the original line and each execution allocation. Oracle order management.

2. Configure the planning mapping

Preserve this relationship before exporting delivery work:

Resolve the ship-from organization to the physical loading point. Use requested arrival and customer receiving hours for the stop, rather than treating the scheduled ship date as the appointment.

3. Select eligible stops and available drivers

Open Workbench for the intended date and filters. Inspect task, driver, and hub layers; resolve tasks without a location before optimization. Use geographic selection to choose the intended area, then confirm the selected task set contains only released work.

Choose Plan & Optimize when assigning eligible tasks across drivers, or Optimize Existing Routes when retaining assignments and improving stop sequence. Review enabled drivers, shift windows, departure hubs, and the displayed task-capacity limits. Do not assume those limits represent weight or volume.

4. Review objectives, constraints, and results

Choose the supported objective: Fastest Completion, Shortest Distance, Fewest Vehicles, or Balanced Workload. Review Respect Time Windows, Reassign Assigned Tasks, and Time Per Stop before running the preview. Select the objective that matches the dispatch plan and confirm which routing constraints are enabled.

Inspect the returned driver assignments, stop sequence, projected completion, and every unassigned task. Check stop times against driver shifts as well as customer windows; confirm that the proposed schedule is feasible. Missing locations and conflicting requirements need explicit resolution.

Review the Dallas–Fort Worth planning example, with distances in miles and local receiving times. Dispatchers should check stop sequence, road access, and unresolved work before applying a plan.

5. Execute the route and process actual outcomes

Keep assignment and planned arrival separate from customer delivery. Monitor failed, rescheduled, and completed stops during execution. A route application must not post inventory, close an order, or trigger billing by itself.

A completed task for one split fulfillment line does not close the remaining allocation. Preserve quantities and holds on every outstanding line when a partial shipment reaches the customer.

After a stop completes, match its task ID to the source shipment, review required proof, and reconcile accepted quantities. Record actual event time and a separate sync outcome. If the source changes after planning, compare the change with the dispatched allocation before overwriting operational data.

6. Verify the result in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM

Record customer receipt against the shipment relationship. Shipment confirmation and orchestration progress remain separate from last-mile evidence; allow the configured process to manage subsequent billing steps. Oracle order management.

Read back the linked record and review every outstanding allocation before reporting the full delivery requirement complete. Test partial shipment, partial acceptance, failed delivery, duplicate completion, and delayed writeback. Keep inventory posting, receipt evidence, and payment reconciliation under their respective configured rules.
