The Available to Promise (ATP) process in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM is designed to determine product availability and provide realistic commitments to customers based on current inventory levels and supply constraints, such as production capacity and supplier lead times. ATP calculates how much stock is "available to promise" for new orders by subtracting existing commitments from on-hand inventory and factoring in planned supply. For example, if a warehouse has 50 units of a product, with 20 already allocated to prior orders, ATP shows 30 units available for new promises. Option B is incorrect because ATP has no direct role in managing supplier payments-it focuses on inventory and supply planning. Option C is false as ATP does not guarantee immediate shipment; it provides feasible dates based on availability, not an unrealistic promise of instant delivery. This process supports accurate order promising, prevents stockouts, and aligns customer expectations with operational reality, making it a cornerstone of effective supply chain management.
