MRP identifies a 60-unit screw shortage
An approved buyer can use the net shortage as a starting point, then consider purchase quantities, lead times, vendor minimums and due dates.
| Review field | Illustrative value |
|---|---|
| Component | Screw RM-100 |
| Net shortage | 60 units |
| Supplier pack quantity | 25 units |
| Suggested pack-rounded order | 75 units |
| Approval status | Required before release |
Rounding to 75 reflects a fictional 25-unit supplier pack size. Actual replenishment depends on approved procurement policies and supplier agreements.

Straight answers
Frequently asked questions
Practical answers about how the software fits into day-to-day operations.
What is an automated purchase requisition?
It is a proposed purchasing action generated or suggested from configured demand, reorder policies or material requirements. Authorization determines whether it becomes a released purchase order.
How do purchasing and inventory work together?
Purchasing communicates expected receipts, and accepted inventory receipts update stock records. Inventory planning can then identify future replenishment needs.
Can supplier-direct orders be linked to customer demand?
Sonic Fusion X supports supplier-direct fulfillment workflows that connect appropriate sales orders and vendor purchasing records.
