Introduction

ADM allows for products to be sent from Lightspeed that were not on the original pick list sent from ADM and have the on-hand quantity updated.

Note: The product must exist at the ADM location and have the corresponding Userkey associated with it as a standard.

Expected Flow

1. Product is created at a location in ADM with a Userkey.
   
   
2. Make sure Lightspeed is enabled for the Org.
   
   
3. Generate a pick list that does not include the product.
   
   
4. Operator adds the product on the Lightspeed side.
   
   
5. Order is sent back to ADM from Lightspeed.
   
   
6. The product inventory is updated in ADM.

ADM

• Set Items: lightspeedaapi/order/setitem
• Parameters: token, key, orderItemId, originalProductId, pickedProductId, originalQuantity, pickedQuantity 2. Order Complete: lightspeedaapi/order/completed
• Parameters: token, key, orderId
• The agreed solution from the Lightspeed team.
• Lightspeed will use the existing API interface (Lightspeedapi/order/setitem) to send items that are not in the original pick list to the market.
• Lightspeed will pass in the orderId, instead of the orderItemId, in the setitem call. 365 will do the necessary lookup on their end to determine which market needs to be updated.
• Lightspeed will pass the product id in both originalProductId and pickedProductId fields and the picked quantity in both the originalQuantity and pickedQuantity fields for products that are not in the order.
• No error messages will be returned for products that do not exist in the market. It is up to the operator to confirm that the product is listed as a valid product in the market for them to push it through Lightspeed using the process above.

Pick List Action options

However, these products will not appear in the pick list by default.

The "Hide From Pick List" option can be set from the Products tab or the Location tab in ADM.

Static Order

A new column called "Static Order" has been added to the Location Summary screen, in the Location tab grid. Use this option to set a standing order for a product at a certain quantity. When this is set for a product, the Min/Max values will be set to zero and not used in the pick list. Instead the Static Order quantity will always be ordered and included in the pick list with Static Order quantity as the Need quantity.

2. Select Global Productsfrom the drop-down menu.
   
   
3. Click on a product in the grid. The Product Summaryscreen will display for that product.

Display "Need" By Feature

When you have the Pick List Action field set to "1+ Cases Needed", you can control how to display the cases needed as either "Case(s) Needed" or "Item(s) Needed".

1. Scroll down to the Pick List Actionfield and click in it. A drop-down menu will display with four options.
   
   
2. Select 1+ Cases Needed. The Display ‘Need’ Byfield will display.
   
   

If the Display ‘Need’ By field is set to "Case(s) Needed", the Rounding field will display below it. In this field you can control how to round the cases needed. You will be able to set rounding to always round up, always round down, or always round to the nearest case.

Note:  If the Pick List Action field is set to anything but "1+ Cases Needed", the Display ‘Need’ By will not display.

How Each Rounding Option Works

Rounding up – This option will always have you pull enough cases to hit your max level even if that means going over the max by a large amount. As soon as you drop below your max amount it will start showing to pick cases.

Rounding down – This option will never exceed your max level. This may cause you to bring less product than your set max amount unless the numbers match up perfect in which case you would bring the exact max amount.

Example: If you have 99 of one item in inventory with your case count set at 10 and your max is set to 100 then it will not tell you to pick a whole case just for that 1 item; instead it will just keep you short at 99 and show to pick 0 cases. Whereas if you were to set it to round up in this example it would show to pick another whole case as it is always trying to get to that max level no matter what.

Nearest – This will display the ideal amount of cases you need to pick to get as close to your max as possible.

Note: This can cause it to go over your max or even under your max.

Example: If you have a max of 100, have 92 in inventory and have 10 in a case, it will state to pick a whole case which would bring you to 102. The reason it does this is because 102 is closer to the max than 92.
