Replenishment List

The Replenishment List is automatically populated when a material reaches or falls below its configured minimum quantity. It's your real-time view of what needs to be restocked.

➡️ How to use it

From the Replenishment List, you can create a PO to Ferguson (or any supplier) to restock the flagged items directly. You can also access the list from the warehouse summary card , click the low stock count to jump straight to it.

Just select the materials from the checkboxes, and hit Create PO.

Just select the materials from the checkboxs, and hit on Create PO.


➡️ Best practices

Filter by "Show Materials Not on a Purchase Order" before ordering.

If more than one person handles purchasing, it's easy to end up ordering the same part twice. The Replenishment List can filter to show only items that are already tied to a PO, or only items that genuinely still need one — see How to check if an item is already on order (and avoid duplicate POs) for the full walkthrough.

Understand this list shows "at or below" minimum, not just "below."

If you also use Rolling Replenishment, know that it works slightly differently, Rolling Replenishment only picks up materials strictly below their minimum, while this list shows materials at or below it. So a material sitting exactly at its minimum will appear here, but won't get swept into an automated Rolling Replenishment run until it drops further. See Rolling Replenishment for more.

If you want zero-stock items included even when they're not typically flagged, check your Procurement Settings.

There's a toggle called "Include zero quantity items in replenishment list" that controls this, see Procurement Settings & PO Configuration.


➡️ Common issues & fixes

"I want to avoid duplicate orders when multiple people are purchasing."

Use the Replenishment List's filter for "Show Materials Not on a Purchase Order" before placing any order — it hides everything already in progress and leaves only what genuinely needs to be ordered. Full details in How to check if an item is already on order (and avoid duplicate POs).

"A material is missing from the Replenishment List even though I know stock is low."

Confirm the material has a minimum quantity configured for that location, without a minimum set, there's nothing for Ply to compare current stock against, so it won't be flagged. Also check whether it's a zero-quantity item; if so, see the Procurement Settings note above.

"I'd rather this happen automatically instead of checking the list myself."

That's exactly what Rolling Replenishment is for, it automates generating a picklist or PO on a schedule based on usage or minimum thresholds, so you don't have to manually check the Replenishment List and act on it yourself.


➡️ FAQS

Can I create a PO to a supplier other than Ferguson from this list?

Yes. Create PO works with whichever supplier is set up for the flagged materials, not just Ferguson.

Does this list update in real time?

Yes, it reflects current stock levels against configured minimums as they change.

What's the difference between this list and Rolling Replenishment?

This list is a manual, real-time view you check and act on yourself. Rolling Replenishment automates that process on a schedule, generating picklists or POs without you needing to check the list, see Rolling Replenishment for the full comparison.
