  1. Stock moves infrequently and an emergency supply is required
  2. Stock lead times are not reliable and a safety stock level is preferred
  3. Retail Stores - where stock needs to be on the shelf at all times and hence safety stock is preferred
    1. Retail stores that replenish frequently may have the min = the max (ie anything sold is replenished)

  • 5 are large > use tag "L" on the warehouse definition
  • When a new product is being introduced and all Medium and large stores require 10
    • enter tags "ML" - this will then present all the medium and large stores in the grid
    • enter 10 in the "Default Max" column
    • Use button "Set Store Max and/or Min to default"
    • All stores will have the MAX set to 10 (and the default column will clear)

In the Grid there are items where the stock in the warehouse is > the max level set.  A picklist can be emailed for these items to be removed.

Picklist

On the bottom RHS is the button to send a picklist to the store to remove excess stock

Note

Users receive the email based on the following:

  1. Must have the secure feature
  2. Administrators + can change host company > will receive all stores
  3. Non-Administrators
    1. Employee Context is used to determine which stores are received
    2. No employee context > Only the employee Store is received

The picklist is accurate at the time it is created.  The target value is also listed in case sales are made before the pick is actioned so the picker can check the quantity that is remaining after the pick
