Replenishing Value Add products

Use the Recommended Replenishment Action Report to create work orders to replenish Value Add products in your warehouse.

  1. Select Value Add > Entry > VAE Reports > Recommended Replenishment Action Report and run a new one-time report or a stored report.
  2. To limit the fabrication VA transactions created, specify a warehouse or a range of warehouses in the Whse field.
  3. Specify these values:
    (R)eport Only or (C)reate Value Add
    Specify c to create VA transactions.
    To run the report without creating VA orders, select r to run in Report mode.
    Initials of User (4 Letters Maximum)
    Specify the initials of the operator running this report. This operator is assigned to the Value Add orders that are created when the report is run.
    This report does not produce report numbers. Instead, the warehouse and operator initials are used to identify transactions.
    Print Usage History?
    Select Yes to print the usage history for the Value Add fabrication product. Usage history can help when making replenishment decisions.
    Process Only Special/Rush Lines?
    Select Yes to process only special and rush lines.
    Print "Do Not Re-Order" Products?
    Select Yes to include on this report products with a Status set to Do Not Reorder in Product Warehouse Product Setup.
    Process (R)ush,(S)pec,(B)oth,(N)one?
    Specify whether to process Rush or Special products.
    Process by BOM Level?
    Select Yes to assign a bill of material (BOM) level number to each level of a VA product. The VA Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report runs in BOM-level order, first reviewing demand for the primary VA product (BOM level 0), then determining demand for any components of the primary VA product (BOM level 1), then any components of those components (BOM level 2), and so on.
    Note: The BOM level number is assigned to the VA product temporarily, and is only used during processing of the VA Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report.
    Order Quantity Based on Booked Orders?
    If Process by BOM Level is Yes, you can set this option to Yes to run the VA Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report to only generate orders for components based solely on booked VA orders for a parent VA product. The order point and line point of the VA product is set to zero before calculating the order quantity.
    If you select No, recommended order quantities are calculated based on Product Warehouse Product Setup replenishment requirements, as well as demand from booked orders.
  4. Click Next and then Save.
