VbzCart/docs/ui/pages/rstk/need

The "Needed Restocks" page calculates what items we need to restock and how many of each we need to request. Ideally, a restock request can be generated directly from here without any guesswork.

By default, the page displays a list of all items needed, regardless of supplier. In order to create a restock request, you have to select a supplier – that enables the controls for converting the need-list into a request.

Table Columns

• Template:L/vc/term columns
• stock columns:
  • min - minimum quantity we want to keep in stock
  • got - how many we currently have in stock already
  • +need - calculated: how many we need in order to refill stock levels
    • This gets added to Template:L/vc/term.
• Template:L/vc/term columns
  • Template:L/vc/term - quantity requested from supplier (summed across active requests only)
  • rcd - quantity received from supplier
  • -Template:L/vc/term - calculated: quantity we are still expecting from the supplier
    • This gets subtracted from Template:L/vc/term.
