Using Par Location Management to Create Orders

The par location functions in PeopleSoft Inventory enable you to establish stock locations that can be replenished without tracking item on-hand quantities and material movement transactions. With par inventory management, you stock par locations with defined optimal item quantities, consume items as necessary, conduct periodic inventory counts to determine replenishment needs, and then run the Create Par Replenishment Requests process (INPGCDMD) to generate orders for items that require replenishment. Using the stock replenishment method, the Create Par Replenishment Requests process creates a material stock request, or order, in the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit to replenish items that are defined as stocked in your inventory.
