Business example
A lamp base needs attention at the packing warehouse
The same lamp base is held at two locations, but only the packing warehouse is below its local minimum.
| Location | On hand | Available | Minimum |
|---|---|---|---|
| Packing warehouse | 8 | 6 | 10 |
| Overflow warehouse | 14 | 14 | 5 |
- Compare the quantities by location
- Review why two units are not available
- Request stock for the packing warehouse if needed
