PO Suggestions - No Sum to Min Qty?

We recently stopped carrying inventory on “custom” customer parts (liquid/weight UOM). Parts are now buy to order; however a customer may order various part numbers that will consume this inventory.

These jobs generate PO suggestions for the product, however they EACH generate a suggestion for the part minimum qty, rather than suggesting that we order 1 unit of the minimum qty. The PO correctly tags the say 3 jobs with a single line and multiple releases, but each release is bumped up to the minimum qty as setup in part entry.

Is this intended behavior, a part setup issue, a “fix every release on every PO” type item or what?

Thanks!

Giving this one a rattle in hopes for some further insight. :upside_down_face:

Pretty sure that BTO is going to enforce a 1-to-1 linkage between supply and demand.

To do what you want, you’d have to uncheck BTO on the part and use Days of Supply to aggregate demands in a timeframe to a single PO suggestion.

Yeah, that’s what I was afraid of. Will need to test it to see how it generates suggestions (which is also something new being used) :smiley:

Appreciate the input. :+1:
