BD Demand Center Entry overview

Bulk Delivery > Entry > Demand Center

Function acronym: BDED

This function is a single point of access to the automated buying system for tank replenishment.

On this page you can perform these actions:

  • Run the BD Entry Recommended Tank Replenishment Action Report
  • Maintain or delete Tank Replenishment Reports
  • Refresh documents to update them with the latest data

After you run the report, analyze and make adjustments to the line items and then create sales orders. Each Tank Replenishment Report creates a separate sales order line. An internal Delivery Transaction (BDET) record is created for each bulk delivery order line.

The BD Demand Center Entry grid displays the Tank Replenishment Reports that are ready for processing. You can sort reports in the grid by column headings. For example, you can sort by customer or customer ship to.

Note: BD Demand Center Entry is intended for replenishment of the contents of bulk storage devices that are assigned to a specific customer. To replenish your tanks or other bulk storage devices that are maintained in inventory, either to sell or lease to your customers, use the Purchase Demand Center Entry function.
