Stock item
A product stored in a distribution point which can be requested, reserved and issued.
A product can be available in multiple distribution points as a stock item.
For every stock item, you can register its minimum stock level (replenishment quantity), Replenishment window, Replenishment quantity Replenishment level and so on.
For more information, see Viewing stock item quantities.
A stock item can be assigned the following statuses:
• In preparation - in this status the stock item cannot yet be requested.
• Active - the stock item can be requested.
• Blocked - the stock item can be requested, but no stock movements can be done on this item temporarily.
• Discontinued - in this status, the stock item can be requested until there is no stock left. The stock item will not be replenished.

As of release L134, products can also be configured and processed as Stock items in the Distribution point management TSI, by selecting the Planon stock item processing method for a product. See Distribution points and their management for more information. However, if you do not need any of the additional options offered in the Distribution point management TSI, the preferred method for you is to manage distribution points via the Stock TSI.
