Create separated Transfer Orders for Available Stock and Purchased Amount

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hello together,

i'm working for an Retail company with around 50 Stores which are replenished by our logistic centre. I've run into following issue and hope that there might be an solution for it.

We want the items to be moved in a timely manner and use Master Planning for this. However, if the Max value exceeds the current stock level, the planned transfer order is created with the dispatch date and the quantity from the purchase order. The problem here is that the currently available stock is not immediately transferred to the shops and must therefore be reworked manually.

As an example:

Warehouse Stock 10
Shop Stock 3
Shop Min/Max 4 / 20

Result after Master Planning
Purchase Order 10 (+ Min Max for Warehouse Stock)
Transfer Order 17

What we want:
Purchase Order 10(+ Min Max for Warehouse Stock)
Transfer Order 10 (Asap)
Transfer Order for the remaining quantity.

So we want the shops to be supplied immediately with the available stock without waiting for the purchase orders to be created. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for your help and I hope I have explained the problem well enough.

    The Code is set to Min/Max.

    "You may consider to manually create TO for 10 units and then wait for PO to show up at main warehouse before another TO will be created by master planning."

    That's what we do right now. But this just eat too much time in our team, that's why we hoped there might be a quick solution which doesn't involve customization.

    Just wonder what code does the coverage group has: period or requirement?

    The system looks at this as one requirement for 17 units needed at the store. That is why it will create one supply order, which in your case is planned transfer order from main warehouse. It may be a customization to achieve what you are looking for.

    You may consider to manually create TO for 10 units and then wait for PO to show up at main warehouse before another TO will be created by master planning.
