Overview
Replenishment Sets in Tightly allow merchants to create custom replenishment rules for specific products, particularly useful for seasonal or non-continuous inventory items. This feature enables users to group SKUs together, define reorder parameters, and determine budget allocation strategies.
With Replenishment Sets, you can:
Apply custom replenishment rules outside of Smart Replenishment.
Define priority settings for selected SKUs.
Allocate budget from either Continuity or Open-To-Buy (OTB).
Automate reordering based on custom triggers.
Override Smart Replenishment rules for specific products.Overview
Getting Started
Accessing Replenishment Sets
Navigate to Tightly and log in.
In the left-hand menu, click on Replenishment Sets.
Creating a New Replenishment Set
Step 1: Enter Set Details
Click on New Replenishment Set.
Provide a Set Name to identify the group.
Add an optional Description.
Choose a Budget to Use:
Continuity Budget – For items that are regularly restocked.
Open-To-Buy (OTB) Budget – For seasonal or experimental SKUs.
Select a Budget Allocation Strategy:
Best Endeavour – Prioritizes profitable products if the allocated budget is insufficient.
Absolute – If the budget cannot cover all replenishment needs, the system skips replenishment entirely.
Step 2: Define Parameters
Select a Replenishment Trigger:
Periodic – Reorders at fixed intervals.
Inventory Value – Triggers when the total inventory value drops below a set threshold.
Quantity – Triggers when stock levels fall below a defined number.
Days of Cover – Ensures stock covers a certain number of days based on demand forecasts.
Define the Reorder Amount:
Tightly Recommendation – Uses AI-driven calculations to suggest the optimal reorder amount.
Set Fixed Amount – Defines a specific budget to be allocated for replenishment.
Set Fixed Quantity – Manually set a fixed number of units to reorder.
Set Cover Days – Ensures stock is replenished based on a target number of days' worth of cover.
Select a Date Range if the replenishment applies to a specific time period.
Step 3: Add Products to the Set
Search for and select SKUs to include in the set.
Assign each product a replenishment priority.
Click Save to finalize the set.
Using Replenishment Sets
Once created, Replenishment Sets operate based on the defined rules:
The system continuously monitors inventory levels and applies the configured triggers.
If a replenishment condition is met, the SKU is flagged for ordering.
Products within a Replenishment Set can be manually adjusted before finalizing the purchase order.
Users can track replenishment recommendations from the Replenishment Dashboard.
Managing Replenishment Sets
View all active and inactive sets in the Replenishment Sets Dashboard.
Use the search bar to find specific sets by name.
Edit, activate, or deactivate replenishment sets as needed.
Delete sets that are no longer required.
