Forecasted Replenishment

PDF Print E-mail

Elemica’s Forecasted Replenishment Solution removes the disparity between traditional order-to-cash customers and "schedule replenishment" customers. As part of Elemica’s Inventory Replenishment suite, this solution allows you to automate demand schedule comparison and increase your control over the order determination process. You can respond quickly and efficiently to changing customer demand patterns and dramatically reduce or eliminate missed shipments and over-shipments.

More Control. Simplified Order Conversion. Better Service.

The Forecasted Replenishment Solution compares and contrasts sequential demand schedules and enables you to auto-generate new orders, order changes and "true" forecasts - eliminating the need for your CSRs to manually analyze less-than-user-friendly document formats.

Missed shipments, or sending more quantity than the customer requires, can result in penalties, decreased customer service, and even result in loss of business. With this Elemica Solution, you can standardize and simplify support for scheduled replenishment customers while accommodating their unique business requirements.

The solution utilizes intelligent business rules and exception-based alerting to proactively manage the replenishment process. You can automate the interpretation of forecasts or schedules and generate orders based on a customized set of rules for each customer. Rules can be configured to:

  • Determine a firm requirement (e.g., "firm flag" or "time fence")
  • Handle changes (e.g., restrict changes within a specified "lead time")
  • Manage group requirements (e.g., group shipments by delivery date and ship to location)

What can Elemica's Forecasted Replenishment Solution do for your business?

  • Streamline and simplify your demand schedule replenishment process
  • Auto-generate orders based on customized parameters for each client
  • Automate the schedule comparison process
  • Increase visibility and gain more control over order determination
  • Reduce or eliminate missed shipments and over-shipments

Automated Replenishment Capabilities Deliver Measurable Results

The Elemica Forecasted Replenishment Solution is designed to work with all standard EDI forecast and schedule messages. With its easy-to-use web portal, you can view order processing results, retrigger orders, enter "rush orders" and download order histories for analysis.

With these innovative new capabilities, your CSRs are empowered to manage more customers with less effort, and focus on relationship building rather than interpreting orders and problem-solving.
