Working with Store Ranks (WSTR)

Purpose: Use Work with Store Ranks to set up and maintain retail store ranks, or to print a list of store ranks.

About store ranks: Rank is a way of sorting stores (by size, volume of business, or any other method you define). You can assign a rank to each store in Creating and Maintaining Warehouses (WWHS), and use rank as a quick way of assigning a group of stores to a promotion at the Work with Store Promotion Assignment Screen.

About minimum maximum: Store rank is also used to define minimum and maximum quantities for restocking the items in a promotion; these quantities override each store's regular min/max quantities when you generate a restock order during a promotion.

• Store S of rank 1 has min/max quantities for Beach towels specified as 10/20 in the store's item warehouse.

• A summer promotion specifies min/max quantities for Beach towels as 25/50 for all rank 1 stores.

• A restock order generated within the time of the promotion's min/max override Start and End dates will be based on min/max quantities 25/50.

 

Note: The system will use the highest minimum and the highest maximum specified in either the store's item warehouse record, or the item promotion record for stores of that rank; the system will take the highest minimum from either record and the highest maximum from either record. See Working with Retail Store Restock (WRSR).
