Fetch the storage stock
This screen shows the product to be replenished, and the possible storage locations containing the stock.
Replenishment stock can be taken from any of the storage locations, however, to ensure proper stock rotation the first location should be used.

After scanning the picking location I am asked to select a stock item.
If a picking location is assigned to more then one stock item you will need to select which of the items require replenishment.
Do I always need to start at the picking location?
No. if the replenishment order is already created, it will appear in the the Pending replenishment area.

After the Fetch the storage stock step, select Next Pick and start the next replenishment order.
To finish the pending replenishments, from the Start a replenish screen, select storage from the Incomplete replenishment section and finish storing the items in the picking location.
Note starting a replenishment will lock the storage location for replenishment. The location will only be unlocked when the replenishment is complete. The stock will not be moved until the replenishment is completed. Therefore it is important to complete all incomplete replishments as soon as possible.

You can click Cancel at any point to abandon a replenishment. You be asked to return the stock to the storage location.
