[Requests / Inventory] Link “Items to Order” with Parts Inventory
A
Ari Abdul
Enable the “Items to Order” feature to be directly linked to the Parts module so that stock levels are automatically updated when orders are fulfilled.
Proposed Functionality:
When a requestor orders items through the “Items to Order” field:
- The system checks current stock quantity from the Parts inventory and displays it to the requestor.
- Upon request completion or approval, the quantity of the ordered items is automatically deducted from the linked part in the inventory.
Additional Suggestions:
- Alert or prompt requestor if item is out of stock or low in quantity
- Option to allow only available items to be shown in the list
Benefits:
- Ensures real-time inventory accuracy
- Avoids over-ordering or ordering unavailable items
- Improves coordination between requestors and inventory managers
