Specify a remote supplier location

For a supply location, you can designate another location as a supplier location. Maintenix can then auto-reserve inventory from the remote location and stock levels for the supply location can be replenished from the remote supplier when a stock low triggers a SHIPREQ.

  • The location must be a supply location.
If you only want to allow stock replenishment from the supplier location, you have the option to prevent remote auto-reservation from the supplier location.
  1. On the Location Details page, in the Details area, click .
  2. In the Supplier Location field, enter a location code or click to search and select a supplier.
  3. Optional: If appropriate, select the Prevent Remote Auto-reservation check box.
  4. In the Shipping Time field, enter the number of days it takes to transport from the supplier location.
    You can enter whole days or partial days. For example, if you enter 1.5 this value is displayed as 1 d 12 h on the Location Details page.
  5. Click OK.
