We have resolved the issue by storing the product as a different SKU.  i.e.
The normal SKU is 12345, the distressed is 12345A (with a "Salvage" planner
and buyer code).  The salvage customer orders are placed against the "A" or
suffixed version of the item.

Subject: sale of held inventories


We are using BPCS 6.04 as our ERP system and have an issue with sales of
inventories that are distressed.  Inventory that is not generally salable
are placed in warehouses that are defined as non-nettable and are then not
visible to the MRP calculation.  When this inventory is sold to a salvage
house the demand then shows up as a demand in MRP even though there is
enough inventory to cover the order already in the warehouse.  I would
appreciate hearing from anyone that has experience setting up order types or
warehouse definitions that would avert this effect using this ERP system.
Thanks In Advance.
