Introduction
1.1
Overview
The replenishment process is used to replenish merchandise from the vendor to the store. In SAP,
the following process is followed for replenishment.
1. Pull Based – This replenishment strategy is used when the past consumption is a good
indicator of future consumption. The process works as follows –
Article consumption at store in POS System
Update the consumption data in SAP Retail
Forecast for the store using past consumption data
Replenishment Run at the store based on the store forecast
Automatic PR/PO/STO for the store after Replenishment Run
2. Push Based – This replenishment strategy is used when the past consumption is not a good
indicator of future consumption. The process works as follows –
Create allocation Table in SAP Retail
Perform Subsequent Processing
Automatic PR/PO/STO for the store/DC after Subsequent Processing
