Review Cycle

 

The review cycle and buyer can be designated for transfers. The buyer can be designated for each Approved Replenishment Path (ARP) based on the following matrix.

 

Source Purchasing Line
Vendor <not specified>
Vendor Purchasing Line
From Warehouse <not specified>
From Warehouse Purchasing Line

An example is buyer 100 for warehouse 01 can be established for items to be transferred from warehouse 02 for purchasing line “Warehouse Items”. Buyer 200 for warehouse 01 can be established for items to be procured from vendor V100 with no purchasing line set.

Buyer Code Buyer code for the ARP
Review Cycle The number of days to use for calculating Line Point
Review Cycle Min Minimum number of days between replenishment activity (optional, display only)
Review Cycle Max Maximum number of days between replenishment activity (optional, display only)
Buying Target $ The target currency value for meeting replenishment requirements for this ARP
Buying Target Lbs The target weight for meeting replenishment requirements for this ARP
Buying Target Cubes The target volume for meeting replenishment requirements for this ARP
Memo Optional memo for review cycle entries

For Review Cycle an additional From Warehouse parameter is available in Replenishment Parameter Maintenance. Therefore, it doesn’t fit in the “normal” hierarchy, but rather has its own unique settings for Review Cycle. The hierarchy that the system uses for Review Cycle is as follows:

Warehouse + From Warehouse

Warehouse + Vendor

Warehouse + Purchasing Line

Purchasing line is the most unique, and Vendor and From Warehouse are at the same “level”. From Warehouse is used for Transfers and Vendor is used for Purchase Orders. Purchasing Line is only used for Purchase Orders at this time, too.
