Forecast to authorized request

Review the forecast evidence and separately authorize the stock request that will govern physical work.

Step by step

  1. Prepare the stock scope Inventory Coordinator

    The Inventory Coordinator records the item, location, base unit, requested quantity and required date. Select the organization and owner, then present the explicit request revision for operating review.

    • Establish the explicit item, location and unit context
    • Updates Stock requests, Stock items, Storage locations
  2. Submit the recommendation Inventory Coordinator

    The Inventory Coordinator attaches the forecast proposal with its actual model version, generation date, proposed units and confidence percentage. Submit the prepared revision with the supporting evidence the reviewer needs.

    • Submit the model evidence and proposed quantity
    • Updates Demand proposals, Stock requests, Record attachments
  3. Decide the forecast proposal Inventory Reviewer

    The Inventory Reviewer independently approves, rejects or returns the submitted proposal after comparing it with current supporting evidence. Retain the reviewed revision and decision reason.

    • Record an independent decision on the submitted proposal revision
    • Updates Demand proposals, Review decisions, Operation receipts
    ApprovalA person approves before the work moves on.
  4. Authorize the stock request Inventory Reviewer

    The Inventory Reviewer decides the actual stock scope and request revision under the operating procedure. An approved forecast recommendation informs this decision without itself creating an order or inventory effect.

    • Approve or reject the operating request scope
    • Updates Stock requests, Review decisions
    ApprovalA person approves before the work moves on.
  5. Hand off the approved scope Inventory Coordinator

    The Inventory Coordinator gives the Warehouse Operator the approved request and inspected evidence needed for the next operation. Keep the physical action separate from the forecast decision.

    • Identify the authorized revision and inspected evidence
    • Updates Stock requests, Record attachments

Where it usually breaks

And how to keep it from happening.

  • The model reference is unclear. Resolve the actual version and generation date before the reviewer relies on the recommendation.
  • The quantity changes after submission. Return the changed revision through the agreed review path.
  • Proposal approval becomes a physical stock claim. Identify the separate request authorization and inspected effect evidence before execution.
