Description

This parameter determines whether media hotels must be preferred when replenishment orders are generated to replenish exhibitions.

If the parameter is “Yes”, items from media hotels will be preferred over items from other branches when replenishment orders are generated to replenish exhibitions. You can regard this as a ranking of suppliers for replenishing exhibitions.

If the parameter is “No”, items from media hotels will not be preferred.

In conjunction with the parameter Prefer own branch when filling exhibitions, suppliers for exhibitions can be ranked. See the illustrative matrix below.
