In detail

What Replenishment & Purchase Orders does

Part of Replenishment, Receipts & Returns in Inventory Management. Keep shortages, supplier deliveries and defective returns visible until each has a recorded outcome.

01

Demand-aware alerts

Minimum-stock alerts are combined with open service-job demand, so replenishment reflects the jobs waiting, not just the shelf level.

02

Check the network first

Centre-to-centre availability is reviewed before a supplier purchase order is raised, which avoids buying stock that already exists elsewhere.

03

Dispatch knows what is coming

Approval, expected receipt and outstanding quantities are tracked, so dispatch knows which jobs are still waiting and when the part is due.
