Mass Maintain Par Locations

Mass Maintain Par Locations

  • Create par locations.
  • Security:
    Manage: Par Inventory
     domain in the Inventory functional area.
To save time and reduce manual effort, you can mass-maintain multiple par locations at once by adding, updating, or removing:
  • Par items. Example: You add a new type of face mask across all surgical ward par locations.
  • Par location settings. Example: You assign a closer
    Source Inventory Site
     to multiple par locations for faster deliveries.
  1. Access the
    Mass Maintain Par Locations
     task.
  2. As you complete the task, consider:
    Option Description

    Click to add a par item to the par locations you select.
    Configure Par Locations
    Click to mass configure par location information.
    Par Count Option
    Select:
    • Count Quantity
       to have inventory specialists manually count items at the location. When they enter a count below the par level, Workday replenishes the item to reach the par level.
    • Order Quantity
       to have inventory specialists manually enter the quantity for Workday to replenish.
    Source Inventory Site
    When sourcing from inventory, select the inventory site that will fulfill the stock request.
    Source Requisition Company
    When you source from procurement, select the company that replenishes the par items for every item at the location.
    Stock Request Type
    When sourcing through a stock request, select the stock request type for the order.
    Requisition Type
    When sourcing through a requisition, select the requisition type for the order.
    Requisition Type (JIT)
    Select when there are items on the par location marked for Just-in-Time.
    Requisition Type (Consigned)
    Sets the requisition type for consigned goods stored in the locations.
    Include On-Order
    Workday checks the on-order quantity against requisitions and stock requests when calculating par replenishment requests based on the status option you select in the prompt.
    Rounding Option
    Rounding determines how Workday converts decimals to whole numbers:
    • Round up
      : Round away from zero.
    • Round down
      : Round toward zero.
    • Round
      : Round to the nearest value, rounding up from 0.5.
    • Round half down
      : Round to the nearest value, rounding down from 0.5.
    When you leave this field blank, rounding reverts to the company default.
    Enforce Reorder Point
    Select to require the
    Reorder Point
     column in the item lines for this par location, to determine when to replenish the par line. Use this option to help your workers decrease unnecessary reordering of items. Example: if the maximum par level for an item is 10, if a worker counts 8, then Workday only orders 2 items.
Workday updates your par locations based on your criteria.
When you’ve required worktags for 1 location, Workday updates those worktags on the other par locations you select.
Count items in the par location.
