Inventory Replenishment Quantity improvements

Additional configuration options for ‘Use days between orders’ are added to Inventory Planning, utilizing the new EOQ enhancements.

Five options are available in total, adding these two new options:

  • Use EOQ based on days rounded to nearest week
  • Use EOQ rounded to nearest storage unit

This provides additional replenishment settings to drive inventory simulation and safety stock settings, to apply practical replenishment settings that minimize the gap to EOQ. These new configuration entries are added to the workbench: 3. Maintenance > 3. Configuration, to the worksheet panel: Configuration Replenishment Quantity.

Note: 
  • This feature is available after loading the demand (dpls.zip) template for this release.
  • You are not required a new role or privilege access to use this feature. It is accessible to users with roles that have access to the existing maintenance configuration worksheet.
