Step 2: Run a Replenishment Request
When you have created a replenishment list and linked it to a location or storage location group, you can start a Replenishment Request.
By default, the Create Transactions field is set to No. This lets you generate a report listing the replenishments to be done, simulate a picking, and have a list of all potential transactions, without actually creating the transactions. You can run this report several times using different percentages each time, until you select a quantity of work that can be handled by the current staffing levels.
When you are satisfied that the replenishment report contains a manageable workload, change the Create Transactions field to Yes, and then run the report again.
Field Descriptions
