Country of Origin on PO/Receipt → store & use in Inventory

Summary:

Understanding on leveraging country of origin in various ways across Procurement and Inventory

Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):

We are doing a POC on how Country of Origin can be used/defaulted on Purchasing and Inventory side in Oracle.

Purchasing:

There is a standard COO field at PO schedules which can be populated. While creating receipt, this field shows up with the COO selected on the PO. However, this does not reflect in the Item onhand view by Country for e.g., 100 qty for US, 130 qty for China, etc.

Inventory:

When we enable the opt-in feature and check the 'Enable Inventory tracking by country of origin' flag on the Inventory Org setup, the COO starts showing up on Inventory transactions like subinventory transfer, miscellaneous transaction and reflects in item on-hand as well by country.
