Sourcing region selection
A region schema represents the complete set of regions defining a given geography.
You can use Sourcing Region Selection to associate preexisting region schemas for use within sourcing configuration.
You can associate region schemas with the following:
- Shipped Product Region Schema - You can select a region schema to be used when configuring the product specific sourcing rules. The regions within the selected region schema can then be associated with nodes or groups of nodes from which product items can be shipped to a destination.
- Delivery Region Schema - You can select a region schema to be used when configuring delivery service specific sourcing rules. The regions within the selected region schema can then be associated with nodes or groups of nodes that provide a given delivery service when a delivery is requested to the specific region.
- Provided Service Region Schema – You can select a region schema to be used when configuring provided service specific sourcing rules. The regions within the selected region schema be associated with nodes or groups of nodes that can provide a requested service when the service location is within the specific region.
You can select the same region schema for product, delivery, and provided service sourcing configuration or you can select a different region schema for each if you would like to define a more granular region definition for any of the three.
