Direct deliveries from suppliers not affecting stock levels

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi

Every now and again we will have orders placed from customers which we will get our suppliers to deliver directly. 

When entering the orders on the system this affects the stock levels in available to promise. Is there any way to set this up so if an order is flagged as direct it won't take the stock into account and I can develop reports to keep track of the direct delivery orders?

At present this currently affects our purchase order processing system as we need to order the direct stock first then re-run the report to see which stock we actually need to order into our warehouse.

Thanks

Jamie

    I think Drop-Ship purchase order will help you to fulfill your requirement. Please have a look on the below link.

    We use different sites for our direct deliveries (different sites for different customers too), so it keeps both the stock, PO's and the SO's completely separate.  We raise the PO with a site ID of the direct delivery customer, add the SO to the same site. It stays as a BO until the PO stock is received into the DD site. It then allocates and we invoice the customer straight from that site
