Replenishment of linear cut lengths for lot products now supported

These new fields are available for linear cut lot products in the Authorized Replenishment Path section in Product Warehouse Product Setup-General:

  • Cut Replenishment Length
  • Cut Replenishment Output Type
  • Cut Replenishment Output

When the length of an existing, available linear cut lot piece is decreased by being cut or by manual adjustment, the length of the remaining available piece is compared to the specified Cut Replenishment Length. If the length of the piece has dropped below the Cut Replenishment Length, then these two functions can occur to inform the correct personnel that the linear cut lot product may require reordering:

  • A Replenishment Action Report (RARR) may be generated if a Cut Replenishment Output Type is selected. The generated RRAR report is determined by the Authorized Replenishment Path (ARP) Type value for the linear cut product in that warehouse. The output of the RRAR report can be emailed to specified operators in the Cut Replenishment Output field or viewed in the Report web part.
  • A new event action may be initiated.

Feature activation

Enable this function for a linear cut lot product by specifying values in the three new fields in Product Warehouse Product Setup-General.

The new event, cut-minlength, uses the cut-lengthaction trigger and is set up in SA Event Manager Activate Entry-Action.
