Increff WMS supports the functionality of UOM(It describes the relationship of eaches to boxes, boxes to cases, cases to pallets, and so on). With this feature we have added the support to define UOM definitions, GRN on UOM SKUs, allocation logic for UOM SKUs and bulk break feature for UOM SKUs.

Terminology

  1.  Eaches Eaches - this demotes the base SKU. UOMs for this product will be formed from this base SKU. For example a munch is the eaches SKU and a box of much is a UOM.

  2. BulkBreak - The process of breaking the UOM SKU into the next breakable SKU. This can be done to replenish child SKUs to ensure picking optimisation or to fulfil a pending order with the child SKU.

Constraints

Note
  • A Virtual SKU cannot be marked as UOM and vice-versa.

  • The maximum allowed value for nextBreakableSkuQty is 200, i.e a maximum 200 units of the next breakable SKU can be present in a UOM unit.

  • UOM SKUs will not be supported in kitting workflow.

  • Perishable UOMs cannot be defined with Non-Perishable each SKU and vice-versa.

  • UOM and NextBreakableSKU cannot be uploaded in single UOM definition creation CSV.

  • Once the UOM definition is uploaded, it cannot be modified again.

Inward Flow In WMS

  • Inward order creation will be same as before.

  • Order will be taken on the eaches SKU.

...

  • The allocation logic is built in such a way that the larger UOMs will be allocated first.

  • The system is intelligent enough to reserve the inventory for the order even in cases where bulk break is required and still show the  accurate inventory view to all fulfilment channels.

  • During allocations, system gives priority to the inventory expiring first followed by largest UOM first. Moreover, wherever required, system also tries to allocate the inventory in such a way that minimum number of bulk breaks are required to fulfils the order.

  • For orders that are unfulfillable due to pending bulk break will have a flag to denote the same.

...
