This parameter determines whether your own branch must be preferred when replenishment orders are generated to replenish exhibitions.

If the parameter is “Yes”, items from your own branch 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 your own branch will not be preferred.

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