Min Qty per Location method |
Dropdown list: choose from None or Calculated. The fields shown above (highlighted in above image) are not displayed if None is selected.
Selecting None means that this stock will not be included in a Stock Procurement session.
Selecting Calculated will show this stock in a Stock Procurement session. |

dropdown list. Choose from current month last year or last (number of days). If Last is selected, enter the number of days in the next field (days). |

Reorder Qty |
Global reorder quantity for all locations (overrides calculated quantities). |
|
The reorder quantity should be the unit count – not the multiple unit measure for This Stock I Buy. If the stock is typically This Stock I Buy in DOZEN (multiple unit measure = 12 units), the reorder should be in multiples of 12. When raising a purchase order for this stock, Jim2 will calculate how many dozen to order (eg. if reorder is set to 48, when raising a purchase order it will automatically choose 4 DOZ). |
