Single Company

Running Replenishment within a single Business Central company is the default approach and no specific setup is needed because all data resides in the same company.

Setup considerations

Company

LS Central and Replenishment needs to be set up in the single company only.

Locations

In this scenario all store locations have to be set up to retrieve the demand information from the local company when Replenishment is calculated.
This is done by selecting the value Local Company in the field Data Source on the Location Card page.

Replenishment Calculation

In this scenario, the entire Replenishment calculation takes place in one company. No special considerations are needed for the Replenishment Item Quantity calculation and Replenishment Journal calculation.

The Replenishment calculation takes place in two steps.

  1. The Replenishment Item Quantity (RIQ) is calculated
  2. The Replenishment Journals for Purchase Orders and Transfer Orders are calculated
