You can configure the software to send a notification when the reorder point for items is reached. This notification is done through activities and is based on the inventory item department.
To configure automatic notifications:
- Click the Departments link from the Main Menu. The Departments page opens.
- Select the item department to configure the notification.
- Right-click and select Edit. The Edit Department window opens.
- Select the recipient list to receive the notification from the Inventory Trace List drop-down. You may need to add this field to your screen layout if it is not available. See Send an Activity to a Group of Users for information on creating recipient lists.
- Click OK.
- Click the Inventory Items link from the Main Menu. The Inventory Items page opens.
- Select the item for the reorder point notification.
- Right-click and select Edit. The Edit Inventory Item window opens.
- Select the department you configured to receive the activity in step 4 from the Department drop-down.
- Click OK.
Now when the reorder point for the item is reached, an activity is sent to all users in the recipient list. You can click on the Source hyperlink in the activity to open the Resource Requirements screen and place your order for additional items.
