ReOrder Calculations Examples         Back

The ReOrder point calculations are only done when using the optional ReOrder Point.They are calculated when you do a Scan For Parts to 0rder and the results are shown in the grid of parts to order on the Sessions Tab.By default MPB uses Min Qty - Quantity to determine the amount to order. Min Qty is the amount you want to keep in Stock while Quantity is the amount currently in stock. This is the default as long as ReOrder Calcs beneath the Inventory Tools Menu is set for "No Action". Changing the default "No Action" to any other setting brings the ReOrder Calcs into play. Most of the time the default is sufficient, but sometimes users may need something different. Quantity is the variable, ReOrder Calc only shows items to order when Quantity is below ReOrder.

ReOrder Calc Setting = No Action

No Action simply subtracts the Min Qty from the Quantity

Below are the minimum field selections required.

 

 

Selecting anything other than No Action will give you an extra field selection named "ReOrder" These formulas are used with the ReOrder field on the Enter Inventory Tab.

Below are the minimum field selections required.

 

 

Examples;

Min Qty + ReOrder

Quantity = 1

Min Qty = 10

ReOrder = 100

(10 + 100 = 110)

 

Quantity - ReOrder

Quantity = 11

Min Qty = 10

ReOrder = 100

(11 - 100 = - 89)

 

Min Qty - Quantity + ReOrder

Quantity = 11

Min Qty = 10

ReOrder = 100

(10 - 11) + 100 = 99

 

ReOrder - Quantity

Quantity = 11

Min Qty = 10

ReOrder = 100

(100 - 11 = 89)

 

ReOrder - Min Qty

Quantity = 11

Min Qty = 10

ReOrder = 100

(100 - 10 = 90)

 

If Quantity < Reorder Then Min Qty - Quantity

Quantity = 50

Min Qty = 90

ReOrder = 100

(90 - 50 = 40) Assuming Quantity is less than ReOrder Point.
