Provision to store Node Availability during release creation for future reference and insights on actual stock position used during allocation

Currently post release (during back-end fulfillment process), Sterling has no insights on the stock position for that item on the node during release creation. Hence it is difficult to

reconcile or justify instances where Store and DCs have reported that Sterling has allocated a product/ released an order/order line to them even though there was no stock available with them. As a result, the root cause for such misalignment of stock position is not clear and since the order is ultimately getting cancelled hence it is a business loss.

To help address the issue, we think if Sterling can have a feature to store the Node Availability (ATP) at the point of release. The value should be specific to a release number and a line number for an order. The driving factors would be as follows: -

1. single line part of single release

2. Single line with multiple releases

3. Multiple lines part of same release

4. Multiple lines part of multiple release

What is your industry? Retail
How will this idea be used?

Currently as we see the functionality would help us with the following business benefits:-

  • Report capabilities in Jaspersoft which can be used for reconciliation as well. As post release there is no way to find what was the availability on that node during release creation.

  • Determine last piece allocations.

  • Show it in Order Hub in ReleaseLine table.

    Hi Suman, Recording the sourcing decisions is a feature IBM plans to implement for OMOC and SIP customers in future. It will not be made for oms on-prem GIV based customers. So, this idea is being taken for future considerations for OMOC customers.


    thanks,

    Hi Suman, thanks for raising idea. How will it help by stamping atp details to the store/dc associate in this case? Sterling has determined the released based on atp in real sense. If physically, it's not the stock situation, it's data mismatch. please clarify. Thanks
