Hi All,

I currently have the ‘Kanban Reorder Point Requests’ scheduled to run every hour. I have noticed that the new transport tasks are created each time the reorder process runs and if existing transport tasks are not executed before the scheduled job runs again, I essentially end up with too many transport tasks.

 

Does anyone know of a way to prevent additional new transport tasks being created as long as there are existing tasks in a status of ‘created’?

Here is an example kanban circuit I am testing with:

Hi @WRKWREASANCH ,

Please enter the lead time for the kanban circuit. The system checks the circuit to determine whether a replenishment signal should be created. The system generates the signal when the quantity on hand plus the quantity of the work in process (WIP) within the lead time falls below the reorder point quantity. Please make sure that your transport task will be executed with the lead time you specified in the kanban circuit.

Hope this helps!!!
