We are going to do our first 852 and begin managing a customers inventory.
I will need not only to accept the 852, but to create a VMI system on our
400. I have been reading about Vendor Managed Inventory, and
studying/planning BEFORE I begin the coding, so I don't end up 99% complete
but having neglected a huge piece for this system and having to start over.
In the vendor managed inventory systems, once I set up and load the original
file from the vendor that gives me their
Upc cross reference with our items..
The minimum stock desired.
The maximum stock desired.
Date of last order.
Re-order inventory point.
And I will be receiving from them the current committed to sell, the
quantities sold...should I keep those for future reference, or just
calculate the quantity on hand bottom line to use.
Do any of you who have created one of these vendor managed systems (rpg
iseries here) have any suggestions for what information to retain
permanently from the 852 trans? Does our forecasting for them come into
play here? If so, we would have to keep track of sales trends per
orders....
Just kinda thinkin' out loud here.... any input or suggestions would be
appreciated... we are JUST at the very beginning here...
