Setup: I have mulitple branches with a main distribution warehouse.
Situation: One of my remote branches have a min/max replinshment on an item that is special order for all the other stores including the distribution warehouse. The way we order from the vendor is to order one large PO into the distribution warehouse, which then creates transfers out to the remote warehouses.
Issue: When my purchaser prepares replinshment and create PO, they do not see the demand from that one warehouse. Unless that warehouse has gone ahead and created a transfer to create the demand. We don’t like this because we have a transfer sitting around unfufillled for 2-3 weeks (we currently have a process that allows the dist warehouse to create a transfer once the materail lands).
Question: how to allow the purchasing warehouse to see the min/max demand of other warehouses without creating a transfer in advance?
