RE: Warehouse replenishment??

We have been replenishing our consignment warehouses for years without
buying any apps.
We call them X orders.  Each warehouse has a customer number in company nine
(pick any unused company).  Orders created for company 9 are shipped like
any others and a small modification to the shipping procedure in MAPICS
creates an RC transaction in the target warehouse.  This makes for an
instant deliver to the warehouse.  It may take the truck a couple days to
get there.   If this is a problem then put the products in an intransit
warehouse or data file and receipt them on delivery.

We are trying to do the same thing.  We are currently creating a Customer
Order for the replenishment to the Distribution Warehouse and a PO so we can
receive the material.  The other option is to use TW transactions but the
visibility of demand and movement of material can be lacking.  Intersite
Logistics is a good fit but can't afford it.  Any suggestions would be
appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom
