For Min/Max replenishments, can we have one of the following:

  • Allow to select locations when "Replenish only fixed locations" is ticked, so we can specify in which group of fixed locations we are doing the put.

or

  • Make sure the "Put" location directive doesn't get ignored, so we can do the selection there.


This is our scenario and surely, we wouldn't be unique here:


We have our warehouse set up in the following way, so we limit forklift traffic.

The bottom of our racking contains a fixed (Pickface) location for a each item (we gave it location profile PICK).

The Bulk for these items is stored on the levels above, but in the same aisle: to achieve that we have set up all the locations above as fixed (Bulk) locations for all the items for that aisle (Location profile BULK was used to distinguish these)

What doesn't fit there gets put in an overflow area from the warehouse (Location profile BULKOF).

 

We have replenishment templates set up to replenish the pickface from the bulk locations above (and in a similar way we replenish bulk for bulk overflow).

Because we have multiple fixed locations for the same item, we want to select the fixed locations we are replenishing from the locations above (BULK profile) to be with a location profile of "PICK".

In order to do that, we need to un-tick the "Replenish only fixed location".


Doing that had a big impact on the performance of the replenishment.

We tried improving that by linking the "Fixed Locations" in the query, but that doesn't work.

We have a similar requirement for this, replenishment by Zone Group.
