Hi
This is like a educational question. I know we can create SKU for each location and then set planning parameters for that location. But how about if company has many locations. Let say 200 or 300 locations and want to mange their items for those locations? I mean even if they have 1000 items for 200 locations we are looking into 200,000 - 300,000 SKU to manage and setup planning parameters and maintain.
What is your recommendation here? ISV, development, special setup...?
Thanks
Hi Ben Baxter
Thanks for providing info here. It helped me a lot. I was wondering that if anything here that I am missing but looks like the only point I was missing is the size of the company and their resources. Looks like SKU/Location is the best practice but they need resources to manage those.
Thanks for your help here
I don't think an ISV product is going to help, nor much customization either. Hopefully the company will have people who manage the inventory for a set number of Locations. Asking one person to manage the inventory for 200 - 300 Locations is an optimistic dream. Some people struggle to manage the inventory for just a single location.
Using the system's "Create Stockkeeping Units" can be used to update SKU records, not just for creating new ones. So if I have an Item that you want to global adjust the planning parameters on, I adjust the settings on the Item Card and then run the "Create Stockkeeping Units" process to update the SKU records for some or all SKUs based on filters set.
The other option is to use Configuration Packages, but again this would be a monumental task for a single person to be responsible for. Hopefully a company of that size has dedicated people to oversee regions or specific Locations to manage the data.
Just my 2 cents.
