Hey everyone,

 

How would I handle a situation like the following:

 

  • Item A is a stock item at company XYZ
  • Buyer from XYZ tries to order item but it's out of stock (both direct and through distribution)
  • Item A lies in two IC81 par locations

 

Which would the buyer do:

  1. Order a substitute item as a non-stock and then just deliver the item as normal
  2. Order a substitute as a non-stock and transfer that stock into Item A even though it's technically not the same item
  3. Other 

 

Someone brought this up to me earlier today and I wasn't sure what to do.

I suggest option 1 - order the item for both Par locations as non-stock, charging the departments for the cost of the substitute item.
