How to: Assign Redistribution Matrix to Items
Store Stock Redistribution supports different strategies to calculate the trips between the stores and/or warehouse locations to redistribute items. The Redist. Matrix is used to define possible store and warehouse location combinations to calculate Transfer Orders in Store Stock Redistribution (Trips). It is possible to define multiple matrices.
To define which Redist. Matrix applies to which item a link must be created in the Item Redistribution Matrix page. This link can be done on item level or item groups level such as Division, Item Category, and Retail Product Group. This link is crucial when it comes to a scenario that requires more than one Redist. Matrix to be considered for a trip calculation at a time.
