Prepare Replenishment

Form ID: (IN508000)

Note: This form is available only if the Inventory Replenishment feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form. This form only displays items where Inventory Replenishment has been specified as the planning method.

You use this form to prepare replenishment requests for the stock items whose stock at a specific warehouse needs to be replenished in accordance with the settings of automated replenishment. The settings provided on the Replenishment tab on the Item Warehouse Details (IN204500) form or Stock Items (IN202500) form define whether stock replenishment for the item is needed and in what quantities. For details on configuring replenishment, see Replenishment for Stock Items.

For a warehouse, if replenishment is to be performed directly by purchasing to this warehouse, then as the result of this processing, the requests for the appropriate quantities of the items (required for replenishment) will become visible on the Create Purchase Orders (PO505000) form. If replenishment should be performed by transfers from the source warehouse or by centralized purchasing to a source warehouse, the requests will become visible on the Create Transfer Orders (SO509000) so that transfer orders can be generated.

Note: For the prepared replenishment requests, you can create purchase orders on the Create Purchase Orders (PO505000) form and transfer orders by using the Create Transfer Orders (SO509000) form.
