Overview

Intended when using a pick face and replenishment is done during warehouse downtimes

Only one replenishment plan can be live for a warehouse at any one time

Replenishment calculations include all stock in the warehouse

Any location with a Pick sequence number is considered a pick location

Pick locations for items are inferred. Any item that is required to be picked the system looks to see the last pick location that item was stored in and recommends that pick location is used. If some items are moved to a different pick location then this will become the new place the system recommends replenishment be placed

The system always attempts to move a full pallet from a storage location to the pickface. When less than a full pallet is to be moved it is because the move from location has less than a full pallet. The layers and loose boxes are provided to help the counting process to when checking the amount of stock moved.

Each Article can refer to either the purchasing configuration or the selling configuration as the stocking configuration. see settings below

Note that the replenishment process does not check stock in bays that are neither pick bays (Type Lot/Pallet Bay with a Picklist order) or bulk stock bays (Type Lot/Pallet Bay with no Picklist order but Access Requires Forklift).

Use the Action button

Audit Tab

The Audit tab shows all stock movements that have been created that reference the replenishment plan with a reference to the stock move

When the plan was not followed (ie stock was moved from or to a different location or the qty was different) then the recommended values will show in the audit notes

Out of Stock Report

The printed out of stock report prints all of the lines from the 'currently displayed replenishment report' that do not have enough stock to satisfy the unpicked orders for that warehouse.

If you print the out of stock list while the Closed report is selected / displayed then the out of stock report will show the items that had insufficient stock in that report, i.e. as at the time and date that was created.

If you print the out of stock list while the Preview report is displayed then the out of stock report will be quite different and will show the items that had insufficient stock in that report.

The replenishment out of stock report shows articles where there is insufficient stock in pick bays to fulfil outstanding orders but there is also insufficient stock in bulk stock bays.

In other words it means that the articles have insufficient stock to fulfil unpicked orders.
