Central warehousing to cascade to warehouse distribution

Hi Suzy,

You have posted this in the Alliance community forum.  Most of the member of this forum will not understand a question about IFS Cloud.  Gradually over time (4 years) customers who use Alliance will migrate to IFS Cloud, and also gradually over time, more people will be able to respond to your question in the Alliance forum.  Please re-post in the appropriate forum for your question.

@DFSSUZYBROCK I guess we would need more information on the scenario that you are trying to achieve in IFS Cloud.

Is this a multi-site scenario where each site will have it’s own warehouse. Then you have a central site/warehouse that does all the purchasing of the goods and then later on delivers to ‘distribution’ site/warehouses the qty needed as per the distribution site order book?

If this is the scenario, then this is supported in IFS Cloud.

Basically you would need to setup a MRP Network between the different sites and if the planning method is correctly setm MRP will create Distribution Orders (PO/CO) between the different supply site (central warehouse) and demand site (distribution warehouse).

You could read more about the Distribution Order functionality on the below page:
