Steps: Automatically Replenish Inventory

Steps: Automatically Replenish Inventory

You can configure Workday to automatically create requisitions for items when the on-hand inventory drops below the threshold you determine. You can then automatically:
  • Consolidate all requisitions for a supplier on a single purchase order.
  • Issue the purchase order on a regular cadence, helping to ensure consistent inventory.
When you complete this configuration, Workday doesn't consolidate the requisitions you had already created prior to completing these steps.
  1. Access the
    Edit Company Procurement Options
     task.
    1. Select the supplier that needs consolidated requisitions.
    2. On the
      Sourcing
      tab, select the
      Consolidate Requisitions on Purchase Orders
       check box.
    3. Click
      OK
      .
    Security:
    Set Up: Company General
     domain on the Common Financial Management functional area.
  2. Define the reorder point for each purchase item.
  3. Schedule a job to replenish inventory.
  5. Configure Workday to automatically issue purchase orders after approval
When the inventory for an item falls below the threshold, Workday automatically creates a replenishment requisition.
Based on the schedule you determine, Workday then:
  • Consolidates requisitions for each supplier on individual purchase orders.
  • Issues the purchase orders.
