Order Settings - Default Order Settings

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello, I was hoping I could get some information on how best to use Default Order Settings, Purchase order tab. I would like to set an item to how its procured/sold by the vendor. For example minimuim order qty or pack of 50. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

    Hi IanieB,

    That's pretty much how they are meant to be used. If your vendor likes to deliver the item in packs of 50, put that as the Multiple. If you vendor likes you to order at least 10 packs, then put 500 as the Minimum.

    If you use Master Planning, it will honour these settings. If you create a PO manually, it will suggest a quantity, and prompt you if you alter it to something that is, for example, not a multiple.

    The downside is that it is not actually possible to set different quantities for different vendors (of the same item).

    Hi,

    Have in mind this setup is global and there is no way to setup this per vendor.

    So the multiple / standard / min and max are quite obvious I think.

    For instance you setup 20 / 80 / 20 and 200 means when creating a PO, the default quantity will be 80, and you will be warned if you try to purchase different quantities (<20 , different than mod 20, > 200) on the PO lines.

    Delay has impacts on the delivery date and also for master planning impacts.

    Note that you can setup this by warehouse using site specific order setting button (by override the previous setup done on the default order settings form).
