.Issue: The current control of quantities in the replenishment templates for the replenishment type minimum and maximum is limited to the min and max quantities and units entered. While this approach works well for straightforward warehouse operations or items with a common larger handling unit (e.g., PL), it becomes extremely challenging to configure and maintain these templates when dealing with diverse WMS operations and a large number of items with the same units across multiple locations.

Solution: I propose a change to the Minimum or Maximum replenishment templates by introducing a percentage-based trigger point instead of having to specify units and min/max quantities. This approach would dynamically generate the work based on the replenishment template lines, locations, zones, location profiles, and items in the select products query, considering the specified percentage. This way, different trigger points can still be configured to accommodate various requirements, such as 25% for items A, B, C and 80% for items XYZ. The calculation would be based on the available stock at the time compared to the location's stocking limit or, alternatively, the location volume if applicable.

Conclusion: I understand that this proposed change is significant, and there may be additional factors that need consideration. However, implementing this solution would bring significant business value. It may be worthwhile to keep the current replenishment template for Minimum or Maximum as it is and introduce a new replenishment type, such as "min/max by percentage," to supplement the existing functionality.
