Replenishing your customer's warehouse

If you are using 3PL functionality and a sales order line is short-shipped or the inventory drops below a product’s ordering point, customer-owned inventory must be replenished. The Transfer Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report generates a warehouse transfer based on the demand against the customer-owned warehouse if these values are specified in Product Warehouse Product Setup:

  • The ARP Type is Warehouse or Central Whse.
  • The ARP Warehouse is the distribution warehouse.

The Type and Warehouse settings must be the same in Product Warehouse Description Setup-Extended.

Note:  A transfer is also created when a short-shipped sales line is tied to a warehouse transfer. This creates a manual tie in Sales Order Entry.

When the warehouse transfer is received in the customer’s warehouse, the customer is charged for the inventory. WT Billed Orders are created automatically from WT receipts, and the Sales Entry Invoice Processing Report is run immediately.
