Standard inventory commitment processes in JD Edwards do not always offer the flexibility we need to prioritize how we allocate available inventory to meet sales order demand. Perhaps we want to prioritize certain customers, but still be able to recognize when other customer orders need to take priority to be filled. Or maybe there is a need to define different inventory allocation rules for different product types or different order types. Fulfillment Management gives us the tools to manage inventory allocation with significantly more flexibility, allowing automation of both simple and complex priority rules that can be based on customer, product, order attributes including line type, and order dates. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of how Fulfillment Management functionality can reduce manual effort managing inventory allocation in your business.
Objectives
Compare standard inventory commitment processes with the options available in Fulfillment Management. Show how Basic Scoring and Advanced Preference Scoring options work and how they can provide the ability to flexibly define inventory allocation rules. Provide a detailed look at configuration of Service Level Rules. Review the Fulfillment Workbench to demonstrate that real world exceptions are still accommodated and that manual overrides can be executed simply and quickly.
