What's new
You can now create and run multiple allocation strategies on the same product. Each strategy applies its own allocation logic to a different set of stores or time periods while drawing from the same shared inventory, and they run together as a single combined allocation.
What you can do
  • Create a related strategy in one click
    – Right-click an existing strategy and select
    Create Related Strategy
    . It inherits most settings automatically, leaving you to set just the location list and Allocation Group.
  • Configure each strategy independently
    – Every related strategy keeps its own inputs: location list, dates, ROS/forecast, order cycle, safety stock, prioritization method, and location overrides.
  • Organize with Allocation Groups
    – Group related strategies together with labels, similar to Assortment Groups.
  • Set priority for shared inventory
    – Use the Allocation Strategy Priority attribute to decide which strategy gets shared warehouse inventory first when strategies compete — lower numbers take priority.
  • Avoid conflicts automatically
    – Overlap validation prevents two strategies from serving the same store during the same timeframe.
Why it helps
  • Run full-price and outlet strategies on the same product with separate parameters.
  • Give different store groups their own replenishment schedules.
  • Phase in next-season allocations while the current season keeps running elsewhere.
  • Let different planners manage separate subsets of stores.
  • Serve multiple distribution channels from a single warehouse.
