Blank Overflow Level Field, Manufacturing Setup Table

Defines how the planning system should react if the Overflow Level field on the item or SKU card is empty.

Note

This global setup field is intended for solutions that are upgraded from a version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV prior to version 5.0 SP1 that did not have the Overflow Level functionality.

You can select from the following options.

  • Use Item/SKU Values Only: The blank value in the Overflow Level field of the item or SKU is respected, and the overflow level is not used.

  • Allow Default Calculation: The overflow level is calculated as follows for items that use the two supported reordering policies:

    Reordering Policy Description

    Maximum Qty.

    Overflow Level = Maximum Inventory + (Minimum Order Quantity. + rounded up to nearest order multiple)

    Fixed Reorder Qty.

    Overflow Level = Reorder Quantity + Reorder Point + (Minimum Order Quantity + rounded up to nearest order multiple)
