Resolved: Units of Measure (UOM) Allocation Limitation
We’re pleased to announce that we have resolved the previously identified limitation regarding Units of Measure (UOM) allocation. Our system now accurately manages inventory availability when breaking down larger UOMs into smaller units, ensuring precise real-time tracking and allocation.
What's changed:
We prioritize allocating inventory in the customer's requested Unit of Measure (UOM), such as "Eaches." If that's not possible but larger UOMs are available, the allocation logic now prioritizes::
1) Single units of a UOM that fully cover the required quantity.
2) Among multiple eligible UOMs, the one with the least remaining base units after allocation.
3) When no single UOM fully covers the requested quantity, the system selects the largest available UOM to minimize breakdown complexity.
The system dynamically selects the appropriate strategy based on these described conditions, ensuring optimal inventory allocation in every scenario.
This enhancement prevents inventory discrepancies, accurately reflects available inventory, and eliminates the previously documented potential for unexpected backorders.
