PAR Location Settings

You have the option to configure PAR parameters at the item subinventory or item locator level. The level at which you chose to specify your PAR settings depends on how you store and count your items.

These settings include:

  • PAR level

  • Par level UOM

  • Replenishment count type

  • PAR maximum quantity

  • Count required

  • Count tolerance percentage

PAR Level

The level at which the quantity is restocked. If the count falls below this quantity, and a PAR maximum quantity has not been specified, the PAR level calculates the reorder quantity.

PAR Level UOM

The PAR level unit of measure associated with the item.

Replenishment Count Type

The replenishment count type values include Order PAR, On-Hand quantity, Order Quantity, and Not Planned. If you do not specify a value for the Replenishment Count Type, the application uses the default replenishment count type specified for the subinventory.

PAR Maximum Quantity

This value is used to recalculate the reorder quantity if the count falls below the PAR level. If you do not specify a PAR maximum quantity, the application uses the PAR level.

Count Required

A check mark in this field indicates that the item in the PAR location must be counted. You define this setting at the item locator level only.

Count Tolerance Percentage

The percentage that the count can exceed the PAR maximum quantity.
