Navigator's replenishment module ensures that picking locations are kept at optimal levels by directing users to perform sequenced tasks in order to reduce picking delays.
Navigator maintains a minimum inventory level for each location and product, and turns on a replenishment request flag as soon as either:
- Inventory levels are below the minimum (a low priority replenishment)
- Inventory levels are below the demand for the bin (a high priority replenishment)
The replenishment module is integrated with
all other transactions, allowing replenishment jobs to be 'completed' by:
- Manually transferring stock from a bulk location or pallet;
- Receiving stock directly into the picking location;
- Performing a replenishment transaction;
- Performing a directed-putaway transaction;
Business Benefits:
-
Automatically suggest minimum inventory levels for each bin based on historical demand.
-
Ensure stock is placed into the correct picking location.
-
Prioritise replenishment tasks to minimise picking disruption.
-
Perform directed putaway on the pallet to reduce the number of pallet movements.
