This option allows you to set limits on what your listed available quantities will be. For example, if you wish to always have a protected quantity for an item, you may set this to display your current quantity - the protected quantity. Trading partners will then not see your protected stock as available.
There are four different availability options from which to choose.
Option: |
Description: |
Quantity Free |
This is the stock quantity in your system that has not been allocated to an order and is available for purchase. |
Quantity Free - Protected Quantity |
If you have designated a protected quantity for an item, this field will display the adjusted quantity available for sale through Trading Partner Connect. |
(Quantity Free- Protected Quantity)-(Number of Months * Average Monthly Usage) |
The system will take into account your projected usage for a number of months you designate, as well as your protected quantity, subtracting them both from your available quantity before displaying what you have available. |
(Quantity Free)- (Number of Months * Average Monthly Usage) |
The system will exclude the projected usage of an item for a number of months you designate, subtracting that amount from your available quantity before displaying what you have available. |
