Product requirements for generating purchase orders

Justin May
Hello, I've searched through the archives quite a bit and have not had any
luck on this. What I want to do is use product requirements to automate
creating Purchase Orders when stocks of raw materials drop below a minimum
level. I have suppliers and warehouses with minimum QOH levels associated
with each raw material I'm using in my BOM's. And I also have "When QOH
reaches minimum stock for product-facility" set for my "Requirement Method
Enum Id".

So at this point when I do a production run and that run drops my raw
materials below the specified minimum I would like to have a PO generated by
going to [Order] > [Requirements] > [Approve Requirements] . Am I barking up
the right tree here?

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Justin,

Sorry for the late reply. Are you still wondering about that or did you get through it ?

I'm actually still stuck on this. I just need a general overview of how it
works. I'm currently creating a series of OFBiz video tutorials which will
be released to the public once completed. And any information on this would
really help! Thanks!
