Override replenishment "put" location

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 535

i have the scenario replenishment work is created for stock for x 2 part pallets (item is 50 EA = 1 (Pallet) PL and we have 2 other LP on the oldest expiry in 25 EA) of items on two different LP. we have a customisation to limit locations to only 1 LP per location, so cant have two LP in the same location. i have tried to override the put step but it doesnt allow on replen unless someone knows a way around this somehow that isnt obvious to me?

its a hard one as you would want the replen to be created but only for one LP at a time, but whatever i do seems to logically respect the stocking limit set on locations to be up to 1 PL, so looks for as many LP as required to get the location stocked to this limit. which is perfect 95% of the time as the LP will equal 1 PL.

is it something clever i am missing on the location directives maybe to prevent this from occuring?

    Have you already had a look at the round up to full LP strategy? 

    Example - Round up to full LP strategy

    • Sales order quantity = 60
    • Maximum stocking limit = 1 pallet [120 ea]
    • On-hand quantity
      • LP1 = 60 [FL-001; used as “Bulk” location
      • LP2 = 60 [FL-001; used as “Bulk” location
      • LP3 = 50 [FL-002; used as “Pick” location]
    • Replenishment template values
      • Unit = ea
      • Replenishment strategy = wave demand quantity
      • Location directive strategy = Round up to full LP

    As shown via work USMF-000127, if the replenishment strategy is equal to “Round up to full LP”, the system will round up the inventory quantity to match the license plate quantity that is assigned to the items to be picked without taking the maximum location stocking limits into account. The advantage of this strategy is that it prevents that you end up with a lot of partial pallets/picks from multiple LPs. 

    Hope this helps.

    this validates what i had tested myself, so thanks Alice, at least i know i am on the right track with this.

    Alice, you havent had a scenario with min/max replen where for an item that is stored in a zone we will call "pick face", but then has lets say 3 fixed locations in that zone for the item. then when replen run's it is asking to move stock from one fixed location to the other within the same zone?

    i have it at the moment and as a dumb warehouse manager with no training on D365 i am playing a game of trial and error to sort out? i have a few ideas but is it something i need to do on the location directives maybe?

    sorry to be a pain :)
