Abstract
A method and system for distributing inventory of a replaced or discontinued product from a warehouse or distribution center to a plurality of stores. The method optimally distributes the inventory of the replaced or discontinued product from the distribution center, keeping in mind the demand for a replacing product at the stores supported by the distribution center. The described system and method calculates replaced (old) and replacing (new) store product order quantities; rounds the replaced and replacing product order quantities if necessary due to product packaging; and ensures that the aggregate of the replaced product order quantity does not exceed distribution center on-hand inventory for the replaced product.
