Setting up product allocations for major customers

Project duration: 7 days

Brief description

Product allocations are set up for a major customer of an internationally active mail-order company.

Supplement

The project is based on a previous project (see project ID 3002) in which the product allocation functions were transferred from the host to the Java-based individual software. To enable the purchasing department to create and approve product allocation quantities, a set of master data has to be set up in both the purchasing system and in inventory management. Test cases are then to be created in consultation with the specialist department and the test cases are to be carried out in order to gain functional acceptance. Essentially, the interfaces between purchasing and inventory management are to be tested. Test management takes place in the Mercury Quality Center.

Subject description

In order to reserve a specific quantity of the stock of an item for a major customer, the scheduler creates what is known as a contingent specification. A released contingent specification is reported to inventory management, which ensures that only customers with a contingent specification receive commitments to the corresponding stocks of inventory. At regular intervals, inventory management reports the stock distribution in terms of the contingent to the purchasing department for evaluation and planning purposes. Purchasing, in turn, can change the contingent quantities at any time or completely delete contingents by notifying inventory management.
