Out-sourced Manufacturing is a famous technique in today's fulfillment and manufacturing world. Starting from Apple to small electronics companies, all of them get the sales orders booked in their ERP system and send them to Out-sourced Manufacturing manufacturers(Could be China) for manufacturing/fulfillment. There is a need to use the OTC + P2P cycles to complete the whole fulfillment cycle. So technology companies go for agreement with pricing changed quarterly/monthly per item. This purchasing process can be easily automated with Oracle Auto-sourcing + Back-to-Back functionality to drop-ship PO to the Out-sourced Manufacturers.
Auto-sourcing in Oracle needs ASL, Sourcing Rule to be created and assigned to the default assignment sets to automate the PO creation when there is a requisition placed manually or automatically from Order Management.
