Greetings!
I have a scenario where we have multiple inventory statuses that are both not-blocked:
- "ECOM" status is reserved for web orders.
- "W-SALE" status is for wholesale customers (Basically - all orders NOT e-commerce orders).
The whole idea is to prevent large wholesale orders from reserving against the ECOM inventory, thus always having some stock on hand for web orders.
ECOM orders should be able to allocate stock from EITHER inventory status. Basically, we want to be able to use demand-replenishment to replenish ECOM locations with stock from the W-SALE inventory. My thought was that I would create ECOM sales orders with the invent status as *BLANK*. Location directives would drive picking from the ECOM stock, but would trigger a replen when the stock is low/empty. Thus - it would need to pick some of BOTH of the inventory statuses.
The problem is that the system wants to drive everything to the W-SALE inventory when the sales line invent status field is *BLANK*. I've set the default inventory status on the warehouse to "ECOM", but it still allocates "W-SALE" inventory. It basically avoids allocating the ECOM stock unless the item is completely out of stock in W-SALE.
Any ideas?
I'm happy to post some screen shots if needed.
