Substitute Conversion is a P4W function that is designed to make the clean conversion from one SKU to a different one.
In this case, a bin contains mineral oil measured in liters (1000 L). However, customer requires 4 bottles of mineral oil measuring 750 ml each (total of 3000 ml in bottles). Assuming that warehouse has a possibility to bottle liquid products, Substitute Conversion is able to transform 3 liters of mineral oil into 4 bottles of 750 ml each (as long and both products (SKUs) belong to the same substitution category).
To start conversion process, navigate to Floor > Inventory and select 'Substitute conversion' option.
Scan 'Convert request' label provided by the web dispatcher to begin the process. Follow system generated instruction to complete conversion.
Scan product you wish to consume for conversion.
Enter quantity of product to consume according to the conversion request instructions.
Scan a bin where you wish to store converted goods.
Scan the end product barcode (Bottle of mineral Oil in this conversion case).
Enter quantity of the end product.
As a result, 3 liters of mineral oil has been converted into 4 bottles of 750 ml each and stored in the new bin.
Notice: substitute conversion can also be done between difference units of measurements. For example: Liters (L) to milliliters (ML), or pounds (lbs.) to kilos (Kg) etc.
