Oracle Inventory Types of Move Orders

Refer: http://learnoraclecsbscm.blogspot.com
Move order is a formal request to transfer material within same inventory organization. Move Order
is a request for a subinventory transfer or an account issue.
Move Orders allow planners to request the movement of material within the warehouse or facility
for replenishment, material storage relocations and quality handling, etc.
Move orders are restricted to transactions within an organization. If you are transferring material
between organizations you must use the internal requisition process
Oracle Inventory provides two predefined source types for all Move Orders
Subinventory transfer or
Account transfer.
Move Order approval setup is performed in Organization parameter menu.
Parameters:
Move Order Timeout Period To define the timeout period in days.

orders automatically.

Requisition move orders are manually created by users. You can set approval conditions for it at
organization parameters like move order timeout period and move order time out action. If these
conditions are set then unless it is approved by planner you cannot transact it. You can allocate
material before transacting the move order
