MRP Sourcing Rules and Bills of Distribution - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The MRP Sourcing Rules and Bills of Distribution report provides a comprehensive listing of the defined sourcing logic. It documents the supply chain network, showing how items are sourced (Make, Buy, Transfer) and from where.
Business Challenge
Understanding the supply chain network requires visibility into the sourcing rules.
- Network Visualization: “What is our current strategy for sourcing ‘Electronics’? Are we single-sourced or dual-sourced?”
- Audit: “Show me all rules where we are sourcing from ‘Supplier X’ so we can assess the impact of their bankruptcy.”
- Validation: “Do we have any rules where the allocation percentages don’t add up to 100%?”
Solution
The MRP Sourcing Rules and Bills of Distribution report lists the rules and their details.
Key Features:
- Rule Details: Shows the name, description, and type (Sourcing Rule vs. Bill of Distribution).
- Source Logic: Lists the sources (Supplier, Org), Ranks, and Allocation Percentages.
- Assignments (Optional): Can optionally show which items or categories are assigned to these rules.
Technical Architecture
The report queries the sourcing rule definition tables.
Key Tables and Views
MRP_SOURCING_RULES: The rule header.MRP_SR_SOURCE_ORG_V: The details of the sources (Suppliers/Orgs).MRP_SR_RECEIPT_ORG_V: The receiving organizations.MRP_ASSIGNMENT_SETS: (If joined) shows where the rules are used.
Core Logic
- Retrieval: Selects rules based on parameters (Name, Organization).
- Expansion: Joins to the source details to show the specific suppliers or transfer origins.
- Formatting: Presents the data in a hierarchical or flat format for analysis.
Business Impact
- Supply Chain Visibility: Provides a clear map of the physical flow of goods through the supply chain.
- Risk Management: Helps identify single points of failure (single-sourced items).
- Compliance: Ensures that sourcing strategies are being implemented as designed in the system.

We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
