Vendor Availability Mass Allocations
Overview
Authorized vendors have the option to massively allocate product to Purchase Orders with items from their Vendor Availability.
Important rules for the Mass Allocation Process
- The Vendor should have the Vendor Availability option "Active".
- The system will only allocate items coming from a Prebook.
- The prebook products must be in boxes (The Mass Allocation process will take products in units from VA for allocating product in boxes).
- The system can allocate partially or completely a box.
- The system will not allocate past due Purchase Orders.
- The allocation process works allocating box by box, not by Product Line.
- During this process, at least one box must be allocated.
- In no case, will the system mix different Post Harvest within the same box (but it does it within the same PO item)
- For mixed boxes, the system will verify that all the products are available to complete at least one box, using a single Post Harvest.
- The PO item must not have a "canceled" status. It can be Pending, Partially Confirmed or Confirmed.

PO items partially allocated
When a PO item has not been completely allocated, a gray V indicator will appear next to the PO item name. Notice that in the next example, the system just allocated 50 units over a total of 247. The system does not allow reallocate products. The allocation process must be completed manually.
