Induction Overview Common Integration Framework
Multiple methods for processing item and order data into RMS
– RIB interface
– Bulk load XML files via a shell script
– Manually via spreadsheet import
Functionality intended to be a framework – integration from external systems or used as basis for micro-apps
All items and orders pass through the staging area, but flexibility to choose which transactions are staged vs. those that continue to RMS

Induction Overview Common Template Configuration
All processing in the induction framework, both manual and automated, is done through the use of templates – RIB integration uses a predefined template that cannot be modified
Templates define which tables and columns are created/updated − Each worksheet represents a table in RMS
− PO induction also uses a de-normalized table, which combines key fields from order/item, order/item/location, and allocation tables
− The spreadsheet columns represent the columns on the RMS tables
− Default values can be defined for both displayed and non-displayed columns
− Valid values available for some columns

• As part of this process, AP calls RMS to receive a list of item numbers to assign to these styles.
• Item information initially staged to RMS.
Commit Assortment
• Finalize assortment decisions to assort styles by: color and size. Determine buy quantities.
• Item information initially staged to RMS is updated.
Create Buy Plan
• Generate receipt plan by item, date, and store cluster, exploded to store level.
• Determine whether to create bulk buy and allocate later or create cross-dock orders.
• Orders staged to RMS based on buy plan.
Finalize Item Setup
• Enrich item information in the staging area in RMS
• Upload to RMS as approved items.
• Items enriched and uploaded to RMS.
Review and Upload Order
• Download orders staged for subclass from staging. Review data sent from AP and update as needed. Upload PO details from spreadsheet to RMS.

PO Induction Overview
• Provide a staging area for POs which are started in an external system
• Provide more flexibility in maintaining POs (mass maintenance)
• Support for PO related functional enhancements
– Creation of cross-dock POs
• Previously supported only via replenishment or integration from external system (e.g. allocation, AIP)
• Allocations created in the Allocation product are not editable in this framework
– Multi-drop POs
• Common in fashion – where buying commitments given to vendors at beginning of season
• Addition of master PO number which will allow similar POs to be grouped together for reporting, while individual POs still have a single delivery date
• PO Number Service for an external system to request and reserve PO numbers for use

PO Induction Use Cases
Support POs sent from planning application (buy plan)
– Buy plan created based on stores, but PO needs to be cross-docked or built for warehouse deliveries and allocated later
Support business case where POs and Items are being created over time
– Similar to slow item and PO build concepts
– Ability to import a PO that has an item that doesn’t yet exist in RMS (may be sitting in Item Induction staging tables)
– Utilize pre-issued order numbers to allow POs to be started in the field and uploaded to RMS
