Delete

The delete button will display if an accessory has 0 availability. The delete button will be replaced with Transfer and Consume once the quantity has increased.

Demand, Lead Time, Order Quantity

These fields are defaulted to 0 when creating a new accessory. Based on the current demand and lead time from suppliers, these values can be edited.

Based on these values, the Order Qty field will display how many accessories are needed in order to have enough availability for 6 weeks.

The purchase indicator will notify if an order should be placed based on the 6 week demand + lead time calculation, minus on hand inventory.

Selecting Yes on the Purchase Indicator filter will display a Purchase button on the bottom left. This will allow you to download an Excel file showing all products that need purchasing.
