The Work Order Planning Report helps review ESTORE inventory items for manufactured-part planning based on availability, reorder point, order quantity, and usage.

What this report is for

Use Work Order Planning to identify active ESTORE vendor parts that may need work orders.

What happens behind the scenes

PAX reads active inventory items where vendor code is ESTORE.

The report aggregates lot quantity on hand, uses item setup for on-order, required, reorder point, order quantity, lead time, and average monthly usage, and reads inventory usage history for last-12-month usage.

Running or copying the report does not create work orders, update inventory, or change planning setup.

Troubleshooting

A manufactured item is missing

Likely cause: The report is limited to active items with vendor code ESTORE.

Safe fix: Review the part setup and vendor code.

Contact support if: An active ESTORE item still does not appear.

Months calculations show N/A

Likely cause: Average monthly usage is zero.

Safe fix: Review usage history and average monthly usage setup before relying on months coverage.

Contact support if: Usage history exists but the report still shows N/A.
