Administrator 99.1 259 5) To reduce the number of rows till...- this can be done also only by specifying the parameters manually.
Administrator 1.1 260
Administrator 99.1 261 2. Optimization conditions:
Administrator 92.1 262
Administrator 99.1 263 1) __No optimization.__ Orders will not be optimized.
Administrator 92.1 264
Administrator 99.1 265 In supplier card in “Auto Order settings” there is a choice to split an order into transports.
Administrator 1.1 266
Administrator 99.1 267 It can be set individual SKU to be put in only one transport. With this setting, the SKU will be not split into several vehicles and will be put in one (except the SKU exceeds a vehicle).
Administrator 1.1 268
Administrator 99.1 269 2) __Fill transportation batch.__ The table has to be completed in cases where the supplier delivers the orders only when the transport is fully completed or if it is more cost - effective to carry goods in full completed transport. In the window that opens, specify optimize by weight (kg) or volume (pal.). Type "Opt. Threshold", "Full" transport size, and "Max. Number of transports„:
Administrator 1.1 270
Administrator 99.1 271 * "Opt. Threshold" means the minimum weight (kg) or the volume from which an order formed for a supplier is increased to "Full" by weight or by volume. If the weight or volume specified in the "Opt. Threshold" is not reached, this kind of transport is not used for the order;
Administrator 1.1 272
Administrator 99.1 273 * "Full" means the maximum weight (kg) or volume up to which an order may be increased for the supplier;
Administrator 1.1 274
Administrator 99.1 275 Several transport filling cases can be described. The system automatically checks and selects the transports described when optimizing an order.
Administrator 1.1 276
Administrator 99.1 277 The order can not exceed neither the "Full" weight, nor the "Full" volume.
Administrator 1.1 278
Administrator 99.1 279 o the order is increased when the counted order quantity is less than "Full" but higher than "Opt. Threshold". All DTA items (even those that are not in order) of that supplier -except NON-goods- are increased proportionally.
Administrator 1.1 280
Administrator 99.1 281 o if the order quantity is less than the described transport "Opt. Threshold", then the order is suspended. It will be formed, but not sent (you will find this order in the New orders window).
Administrator 1.1 282
Administrator 99.1 283 o if the order quantity is bigger than automatically selected the closest transport "Full" meaning, transport is filled n times (or as much as indicated by Max. The number of transports) until the completion of N full transports by the same transport.
Administrator 1.1 284
Administrator 99.1 285 __Split order according to transportation batch__ – when a check mark is placed, the orders for the supplier are formed for each transport separately, that is, when the order consists of more than one transport, then the supplier will receive separate orders.
Administrator 1.1 286
Administrator 99.1 287 3) __Optimize, if the target is not exceeded.__ The table has to be completed in cases where the supplier agrees to deliver the order or it is more cost - effective if the order is not less than the specified amount.
Administrator 1.1 288
Administrator 99.1 289 It is allowed to optimize by the sum of money, weight, volume and goods quantity.
Administrator 1.1 290
Administrator 99.1 291 "Opt. Threshold" – means the amount at which the order will be increased to the "Target" amount (up to which the order must be increased). 
Administrator 1.1 292
Administrator 99.1 293 * if "Opt. Threshold" is not reached, the order will be formed but not sent (you will find this order in the "New Orders" window);
Administrator 1.1 294
Administrator 99.1 295 * if the order amount is bigger than set "Opt. Threshold," but less than "Target", then in optimization the order will be increased to "Target" based on the specified optimization option parameters and sent.
Administrator 1.1 296
Administrator 99.1 297 * if the order amount is equal to or bigger than "Target" and corresponds to the specified optimization option parameter, then the order will not be changed and will be sent without any corrections.
Administrator 1.1 298
Administrator 99.1 299 In the New Orders window, the icon [[image:9.PNG]] means that the order should have been sent automatically, but the amount of "Opt. Threshold" has not been reached. Open this order and manually optimize it and send to the supplier, or remove;
Administrator 1.1 300
Administrator 99.1 301 For the order optimization by amount, you can enter a value in the field "Opt. Threshold", not less than 60% of the "Target" amount. The value can be changed in agreement with the project manager.
Administrator 1.1 302
Administrator 99.1 303 If a check mark "Split order according to transportation batch" is placed and is set optimization by volume for the supplier, then the orders will be splitted according to the specified optimization conditions.
Administrator 1.1 304
Administrator 99.1 305 **Optimization does not change the quantities that have already been changed in the order manually before optimization.**
Administrator 1.1 306
Administrator 99.1 307 **IF YOU ENTER NEW INFORMATION OR MAKE CHANGES ONLY IN THIS WINDOW, DON'T FORGET TO CLICK "SAVE".**

Administrator 99.1 309 == **Import of orders' formation schedules** ==
Administrator 1.1 310
Administrator 99.1 311 Where a large number of delivery schedules exist, in which different changes are made in accounting system daily, the schedule may be updated from the customer's accounting to Stock-M. THIS MUST BE AGREED WITH THE PROJECT MANAGER.
Administrator 1.1 312
Administrator 99.1 313 ~1. Schedules are imported at the time of data exchange received in the CSV file format.
Administrator 1.1 314
Administrator 99.1 315 2. After the schedule import,  the automatic supply schedule confirmation function works - all supply schedules received from the accounting are confirmed by the system automatically.
Administrator 1.1 316
Administrator 99.1 317 3. If, during the data exchange, the schedule is updated with a split mark that is not Stock-M, it will be automatically created in Stock-M.
Administrator 1.1 318
Administrator 99.1 319 4. Updated, automatically not confirmed schedules (the system does not confirm if there are errors in the schedules, e.g.: Monthly schedule but not specified supply days) can be found at: StockM → "Warnings" → "Critical warnings" → "Unconfirmed supply schedule" → Click the "Show" button in the window that opens to see all the updated and still not confirmed schedules.
Administrator 1.1 320
Administrator 99.1 321 5. After clicking on the schedule line [[image:10.PNG]], the supply schedule confirmation window appears where you will see the previous schedule "Previous", the updated schedule "Incoming" and the "New values" schedule that will become valid after confirmation.

Administrator 99.1 337 == **Change the supplier** **order formation or change the item supplier ** ==
Administrator 1.1 338
Administrator 99.1 339 If the specified supplier order formation frequency or time of the order delivery has changed, **OR **the item (SKU) supplier has changed to another, that is, previously items were supplied from one supplier, now are supplied from another, then you must **DEFINITELY** review the item buffers.
Administrator 1.1 340
Administrator 99.1 341 ~1. Item buffers must be reviewed (and changed) if:
Administrator 1.1 342
Administrator 99.1 343 1) If the supply time is prolonged / order formation became rarer.
Administrator 1.1 344
Administrator 99.1 345 2) If the supply time has been shortened/order formation frequency increased more than 2 times.
Administrator 1.1 346
Administrator 99.1 347 2. The buffers may be changed in such a ways:
Administrator 1.1 348
Administrator 99.1 349 1) If the item is not new and has sales history ≥ 3 * RD. STOCK-M → "Inventory" → Filter: specific supplier (which now supplies the items):
Administrator 1.1 350
Administrator 99.1 351 * you see a list of items for the selected supplier in the window that opens. Select all rows for which you need to recalculate the buffers;
Administrator 1.1 352
Administrator 99.1 353 * after you have placed all the check marks, click button [[image:13.PNG]];
Administrator 1.1 354
Administrator 99.1 355 * in the table that opens, select [[image:14a.PNG]] ;

Administrator 1.1 358
Administrator 99.1 359 [[image:16.PNG]]
Administrator 1.1 360
Administrator 99.1 361 * When the period is selected, select the calculation method for the buffer: by average sales or by max sales during supply lead time (you can also add Murphy % to the calculation of buffers by the max sales during supply lead time).
Administrator 72.1 362
Administrator 99.1 363 2)  Change the item buffers by the coefficient (according to how much decreased/increased supplier's supply parameters): STOCK-M → "Inventory" → Filter: specific supplier (which now supplies goods):
Administrator 1.1 364
Administrator 99.1 365 * You see a list of items for the selected supplier in the window that opens.  Do the same steps as listed in p. 2.1, except the last one. In the table that opens, choose  enter the coefficient at which you want to change the buffers for the entire filtered list of items.
Administrator 1.1 366
Administrator 99.1 367 [[image:18.PNG]]
Administrator 1.1 368
Administrator 99.1 369 3. If the item is new and has no sales history, then enter the new item buffer manually [[image:17.PNG]].
Administrator 1.1 370
Administrator 99.1 371 **Important!** When changing buffers, be sure to specify the reason for buffer change.

Administrator 1.1 375
376
Administrator 99.1 377 If a supplier of the item is not updated from the accounting program, then the supplier must be assigned to the item in STOCK-M. If you need to assign the same supplier for the same item in more than one warehouse, you can use the bulk editing function.
Administrator 1.1 378
Administrator 99.1 379 STOCK-M → in the Inventory window, filter the items that require replacing the supplier → Select all lines and press [[image:13.PNG]] . In the window that opens, select the required supplier and save the changes.
