Replenishment Setup (IC12.2)
Use Replenishment Setup (IC12.2) to maintain purchasing and reorder information for an item at a specific location. Purchasing information includes the item's primary vendor, purchase-from location, automatic purchasing flag and the reorder document code. Vendors and purchase-from locations are set up in the Accounts Payable Vendor form. The reorder document code indicates the type of document to create to reorder the item (purchase order, transfer, issue, requisition, intransit).
More Information
Reorder information defines the reorder method (Reorder Policy Code), when to reorder (Reorder Point), order calculation (Reorder Quantity Code) and the order quantity (Reorder Quantity). The Inventory Control application suggests order quantities based on reordering information via inventory report programs: Inventory Reorder Advice (IC225), Economic Order Quantity and Reorder Calculation (IC120), Vendor Reorder Advice (IC140), Location Replenishment Report (IC141), and Replenishment by Requisition PO's (IC142). Refer to these forms for more information on what reorder information is necessary to suggest order quantities.
