If you’ve ever worked with the Oracle Shipping Execution Module, you know it can be a powerful tool. However, when it comes to handling more complex shipping needs, it does have its limitations. Many organizations face challenges. They must juggle multiple carriers and have limited visibility on shipments. They rely on manual steps for rating and tracking. These hurdles can lead to delays, increased freight costs, and inefficiency.
Key Challenges in Oracle’s Standard Shipping Module:
- Manual Carrier Selection: Unfortunately, Oracle Shipping lacks dynamic rate shopping across multiple carriers. This means you’re stuck with manual inputs, which can be slow and prone to errors. ·
- Limited Multi-Carrier Support: Managing shipments across carriers often means jumping between separate systems. This fragments your data and adds complexity. ·
- Minimal Tracking and Reporting: Oracle’s module lacks visibility into shipments. It makes it hard to track delays. ·
- Limited Freight Quoting: Real-time shipping cost quotes are tricky. Oracle’s system doesn’t allow quick comparisons of different shipping options. ·
- Lack of Serial/Lot Control and WMS Integration: Managing serial and lot-controlled items can be difficult due to Oracle’s limited Warehouse Management System (WMS) integration. This leads to inefficiencies in handling License Plate Number (LPN) management, adding complexity to warehouse operations.
