Service Geeni helps you manage your stock by using the Stock Replenishment module. Within this, you can set Re-Order Points and Re-Order Quantities for your bins to ensure that inventory is always stocked.
Re-Order Points are thresholds you set to indicate when it's time to re-order items, to avoid stock shortage.
Stock Replenishment is managed through these Re-Order Points on the stock record, ensuring your inventory levels are automatically maintained.
Getting There
Let's get started!
To edit Re-Order Points
Head to Stock Records via the Stock menu.
Then, click on the Stock records SKU number; this will open the Record Editor.
You'll notice the edit icon in the Action Bar; click it to proceed.
From here, scroll down to the Default Bin Locations and Re-Order Points section.
This is where you'll find your current Re-Order points.
Re-Order Point
When the stock level drops below the Re-Order Point, a re-order line is automatically added to the Stock Replenishment module.
The system will generate an order to bring the stock level back up to the specified Order Quantity.
For example:
Every Stock Record has a section for Re-Order Points, which can be set differently for each Bin Location.
This is useful if you want to keep a smaller quantity at the warehouse but ensure engineers always have enough stock in their vans or bins.
Example:
Re-Order Point = 10
Order Quantity = 20
Once the stock reaches the threshold of 10, the system will prompt you to reorder the suggested quantity, helping to keep your stock levels consistent.
