The delivering location is determined based on the
following:
- Sourcing rules if the sourcing rules are set up
- Resource pool serving the service region if sourcing
rules are not setup
When determining node based on resource pool setup, Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation searches
for all resource pools that service the delivery region and have the
skills needed (if any) to perform the delivery service. All nodes
associated with available resource pools are considered for sourcing
the product.
Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation ensures
that:
- The node selected has capacity available for servicing
the delivery request.
- The node selected has availability for all the
products being delivered as part of this delivery request. Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation can
be configured to generate automatic transfer or procurement orders
from other locations if sufficient stock is not available in the delivering
location. The following figure illustrates delivery coverage.
