Re: sale of held inventories

Is the Salvage house a different Customer?     This customer could have a
different default warehouse setup on the customer master.

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.
