Replenishment
Replenishment is the act of placing a supply order for an item in response to the demand for it.
This act can be in direct response to a demand order (sales, internal or a process order's raw material requirement) or be indirectly by monitoring stock levels.
As with any order, we require the Supplier, Quantity; and Due Date to be set. Replenish action, therefore, consists of the following
Steps
- Determine/Confirm the supplier of the item
- Set the Quantity to order
- Select the items to replenish
- Generate the order. (Due date is calculated based on replenish settings.)
- Activate the generated orders (optional)
There are many different screens in Sense-i to view and manage replenishment.
