Exception reporting

All of the replenishment programs allow for exception reporting.

If you decide to print an exception report, then a listing of certain items that were not replenished is produced. This list shows the reasons why items are not identified as needing replenishment:

  • The supply or demand for an item has not fallen below the reorder point quantity defined at the item location.
  • Replenishment information is missing, either for the vendor or for the company, location, and item.
  • The inventory major or minor sales class selected does not match the class from the Item Master.
  • The purchasing major or minor class does not match the class from the Item Master.
  • The item is set to Inactive in the Item Master and you decided not to include inactive items in the replenishment program.
  • An item's Inventory Tracking field is set to No on the Item Location.
  • The vendor selected for replenishment directly from a vendor is inactive.
Note: By printing an exception report, all items for that location are printed including items that were and were not selected for replenishment. We recommend printing an exception report when you are setting up new items or locations for replenishment, or to determine why an item was not reordered.
