DESCRIPTION |
This option will auto-generate a secondary inventory point distribution
falling below the standard reorder point (if items only fall below the
optional order point for a vendor, the order will not be generated).
The quantity to order is the difference between the available quantity
and the normal stock level. Conversion factors (primary to secondary),
primary minimal issue quantity, and primary issue multiple also factor
into the total quantity of an item to order.
At completion of auto-generation, a series of reports can be generated.
Each item in the inventory point will appear on one of the reports.

below or equal to the standard reorder point, the item will be ordered.
When an item's available quantity falls below or equal to the optional
reorder point, the item will be ordered if there are other items for
the same vendor which are being ordered due to the available quantity
