Eg.:

<!-- PRODRQM_STR: request stock transfer on .... -->

     <Enumeration description="Request stock transfer" enumCode=
"PRODRQM_STR" enumId="PRODRQM_STR" sequenceId="08" enumTypeId=
"PROD_REQ_METHOD"/>

You have to take into consideration that when there are more than one
alternative facilities it checks each to ensure it has enough inventory.

Hi Shrenik

So you have:

    - Store A (webstore) -> associated with facility 1 (webstore
    facility),
    - Store B (retailstore) -> associated with facility 2 (retailstore
    facility).


You might consider defining a new requirementMethodEnumId that:

    - triggers a stock move/transfer request from the webstore facility
    to the retailstore facility when the inventory in the retailstore facility
    falls below the threshold

And create the appropriate function for this.

Best regards,

I have a use case wherein there is a website and a physical retail store.
Have created separate stores and facilities (for example, retail
warehouse and webstore warehouse) for each of them in OFBiz.
Both the stores share the same catalog/products.

However, both have different inventory management rules for the same
product. The inventory quantities can be independently managed via the
facilities tab for a product.
Where the difficulty crops up is the management of Requirements. A
product can have only one Requirement Method Enum Id (RMEI).
The webstore warehouse is the main facility at which replenishment from
suppliers and order fulfilment and shipping happens. The retail warehouse
is just stocked via indents from the webstore warehouse and does not issue
direct purchase orders to suppliers. The desired behaviour is that whenever
item quantity is below ATP for the retail warehouse, then a request to
re-stock is sent to the webstore warehouse. If it has ample quantity in
stock(ATP) then it should approve and initiate a transfer else it should
generate a requirement based on the RMEI.

I did find something in Opentaps to handle this situation but would
prefer something in pure OFBiz. I can't fathom a way to handle this
scenario out of the box in OFBiz or may be I am missing something obvious.
Before I embark on some customisation, would like to have the community's
thoughts on it as this seems a pretty routine scenario which others may
have already encountered.

All thoughts are welcome.
