To Set Up Replenishment for an Item Class

If your organization uses automated replenishment and item classes, you can set up replenishment for an item class to provide default settings to all items of this class. You use the Item Classes (IN201000) form to specify replenishment settings for an item class, as described in this topic.

Note: To open any form, you can navigate to it or search for it (by its name or by its form ID without periods). For more information about search capabilities, see Search.

Before You Proceed

  • Make sure that the replenishment classes you want to assign to the item class have been created on the Replenishment Classes (IN208800) form.
  • Make sure that the seasonalities you want to assign to the item class have been created on the Replenishment Seasonality (IN206600) form.
