This plugin can be used with the Pickface Replenishment Review or the Replenishment Release screen. It allows multiple plugins to be uploaded as a site may want several calculation options.  There is not one magic rule for calculating replenishment orders. Some calculations can be straightforward, yet others can be very complex. Due to this, DATASCOPE PREMIUM WMS allows custom-scripted replenishment calculations to be embedded into the software. Refer to the Plugin Customization User Guide for more information on writing custom-scripted replenishment calculations.
