You can create IRO’s in two different ways:
- Generate from an Internal replenishment suggestion (see About creating internal replenishment orders (DC1 Stock Control))
- Enter one manually in Sales order entry or copy an existing (see Start internal sales order creation manually)
When the IRO is created it consists of one Sales order with one or many corresponding Purchase orders, i.e. each sales order line has a corresponding purchase order line.
The process of creating an IRO is controlled via the entered sales order type and its corresponding purchase order type. This means that the purchase order controls whether or not the creation of the sales order is done in batch or direct, depending on the documents that are going to be created for the order. (For batch creation see Create an internal replenishment order in a batch run (DC1 Stock Control).
Note: The only restriction is that the pick list must be printed for the sales order and goods reception cannot be performed for the purchase order until the sales order has been pick confirmed. The system does not create any invoices for IRO’s.
Note: It is assumed that you have a basic knowledge of processing normal sales and purchase orders within DC1 Distribution.
