Lead Time Selection Methods
For each of the components of lead time in your override, you can select the method by which StockIQ will select the lead time to use. The values are:
- Host Provided: Use the value provided from the host ERP system. If no value is present, defaults in the Global Lead Time Settings will be used.
- Calculated: Use the calculated value from StockIQ based on your receipt history etc. If insufficient receipt history is available, then the ERP lead time will be used. If no ERP LT is available, Global defaults will be used.
- Host Value When Provided: This will use the ERP lead time if provided, but will fall back on StockIQ's lead time if the value from the ERP is null. If neither value is available, Global defaults are used.
- Highest: StockIQ will use the higher of the two Calculated vs ERP lead times available.
- Lowest: StockIQ will use the lower of the two Calculated vs ERP lead times available.
- Fixed Value: The lead time will be a fixed value, which is provided in the rule.
