Reserve product by supplier
This module allows you to take into account your inventory and reserve product by supplier for all of your project. Thus, you will save time and will know exactly which products to buy.
Â
You can reserve your product by supplier through the ‘'Just in time’' window, under the ‘'To process by supplier tab’'
Product to be reserve is triggered based on multiples variables:
Inventory availability
Work-order’s estimated due date, based on either end of production date and/or install date
Purchasing forecast date
(In the ‘'just in time’' window)

Reserving product by supplier
To reserve products, you must provide the ‘'Forecast until’' date and then click on the button Display. At this point, you can also filter by supplier.
The window will display two tables:
Product to reserve
Product to buy
The order in which these tables are displayed is for a specific reason; product reservation must come in first place, as it will impact products to buy, if applicable.
Products to reserve represent product on work-orders that are in B/O with available quantities in your inventory, and that has been configured as ‘'Batch order only’'
To reserve, you can select your work-order depending on their priorities or make a quick selection for all products by using the ‘'+/-’' tool, then click on ‘'Reserve’'.
Once your product reserved, quantities will be updated in the respective work-orders. In case of insufficient quantities in inventory to cover for all required material, the outstanding B/O product will be displayed in the ‘'To buy’' table.
