How are Sales orders and purchase orders linked with Reordering policies and Replenishment systems.

Hi 

I am new to Business central and got stuck while investigating **where and how the reordering policies and Replenishment system parameters (specified at item level or Stock keeping card level) affect the sales orders and purchase orders.**

1. I have checked that we can create purchase orders from Requisition Worksheets and planning worksheets. Will the reorder quantity(specified at item level) be used here to create      purchase order? When I checked this, I had to specify the quantity manually. 

2. When we create a sales order with quantity more than the available inventory, a warning is popped up stating the quantity ordered is more that available inventory. 

    From there we can create purchase orders or purchase invoices, will the reordering parameters specified at item level be used here.

I have the same question (0)

    So the reordering parameters are not reflecting at sales order level if the quantity mention exceeds the inventory level?

    Replenishment system defines how the item is supplied. The reordering policy defines when the plan to get supply. The settings used depend on your business process and item itself. The requisition worksheet is a tool that can be used in conjunction with the replenishment system and reordering policy to give you suggested supply either based on minimum stocking quantities or based on orders received in a period or a forecast. If you have to move stock around locations too I would use the the item planning worksheet instead. You will need to use stockkeeping units though. This is for multi location scenarios and you create a child record to the item per location or per variant of the item. For example lime green trainers are bought less often as you sell less but black or white ones are bought more often as you sell more.

    It’s worth reading the intended design: docs.microsoft.com/.../design-details-planning-parameters
