Hi ,
We currently have a 3 step delivery route in which the first rule is to move from the HOLDING BAY location to the PACKING location.
We then have a replenish / buy route that creates a purchase order when stock is required in HOLDING BAY.
This all works perfectly and if there is no stock in HOLDING BAY, a purchase order is being created.
However we also have a 2 step receiving location, set up to take from the "input" location.
Once receiving is done the one and only rule within the 2 step receiving is not being triggered.
The rule is setup to push to HOLDING BAY location if stock arrives in INPUT location.
However for some reason it never gets call when the PO is generated via the 3 step delivery.
HOWEVER, it works perfectly if the PO is created by its. E.g. If I create a new PO and receive that PO, the putaway rule gets triggered.
Any thoughts on why the the standalone PO generates the rule , but not the PO from a replenishment order. I am using exactly the same product, so the routes applied are the same.
Thoughts?

Are there more than 1 receipt routes configured? On the PO there is a deliver to field
Or are the products being received directly to holding bay and not to Input with replenishment trigger. ( destination location on receipt Operation)
Hi Jaideep,
Only have 1 route/rule with a Receipts based operation type defined and that is my "Buy" route which only has the 1 rule with operation type "Warehousename: Receipts - Replenishment" and this operation type has the Operation Type = "Receipt"
The "Warehousename: Receipts - Replenishment" operation type is a copy of the "Receipts" operation type, just the naming and sequence settings a different.
And this is the operation type that is showing in the "Delivery To" field on the PO
Also note that the Default Destination Location on the "Warehousename: Receipts - Replenishment" operation type is set to "Input" and therefore when the PO is being received, it is received to this input location. The same source location that is defined within the Putaway rule. I can also see in the Stock moves that it has moved from vendor to input after the receiving is completed.
