  "objective": {
    "intro": "The objective of this test is to validate that a work order can be created in Oracle Fusion SCM Manufacturing for a standard, lot-controlled or serial-controlled item, using a valid manufacturing organization, work definition, quantity, dates and priority, without assuming a universal work definition or costing setup, and that the resulting work order is created with correct header detail and status.",
    "confirms": [
      "the work order is created against the correct manufacturing organization, item and work definition",
      "quantity, unit of measure, start date, completion date and priority are captured correctly on the work order",
      "lot and serial control is correctly enforced according to each item's configuration",
      "operations and components inherited from the work definition are correctly reflected on the work order",
      "the work order receives a system-generated work order number and correct status once created",
      "Oracle correctly enforces validation when data errors, configuration errors or security restrictions are introduced (DATA_ERROR, CONFIGURATION_ERROR, SECURITY_ERROR, EXPECTED_VALIDATION)"
    ],
    "scope_note": "This scenario covers creation of standard, lot-controlled and serial-controlled work orders in Oracle Fusion SCM Manufacturing TEST/UAT environments. It does not assume a universal work definition or costing setup, and does not cover release, update or cancellation of the work order, which are covered by the separate Release Work Order, Update Work Order and Cancel Work Order scenarios in the same Work Orders cluster."

    "The test user has appropriate access to create a work order for the manufacturing organization.",
