Auto Restock Processing
Overview of IV710
The auto-restock function enables you set an inventory level where you want the system to initiate a transfer of stock from another item storage site. Only items with more than one storage location are eligible for auto restocking. This function always restocks from lower-priority warehouse locations to higher-priority locations. Therefore if the location to be restocked has the same or a lower picking priority than all other locations, no transfer will occur.
- From the DDI Connect main menu, double-click Inventory
- Double-click Auto-restock processing. The parameters screen will launch:
The following fields are available on this screen:
| Field | Description |

| Request date for transfer tickets | This is the request date that will go on the transfer ticket(s). The system will default to today's date, but you can modify it by typing the date in mm/dd/yyyy format or by clicking the calendar icon to select the date |
