Understanding Bundle Replenishment in Fabrikatör

Bundle products are not displayed on the Replenish Page or when creating a Purchase Order (PO) because, in reality, bundles cannot be replenished directly—only their components can. Instead, we calculate the suggested restock quantity by considering both bundle sales and individual product sales on the Replenish Page.

How Fabrikatör Handles Bundle Components

When managing inventory for products that are part of bundles, Fabrikatör:

  1. Tracks demand for components from both:

    • Direct sales of the individual product

    • Sales of bundles containing the product

  2. Calculates restock suggestions for the components based on this combined demand

  3. Shows component products (not the bundle itself) on the Replenish Page with quantities that account for all sales channels

Example

If you sell:

  • Product A individually: 10 units sold

  • Product A as part of Bundle X: 5 bundles sold (each containing 2 units of Product A)

The system will:

  • Track total demand for Product A as 20 units (10 individual + 10 from bundles)

  • Show Product A on the Replenish Page with restock suggestions based on this total demand

  • Not show Bundle X on the Replenish Page, as you can't order the bundle from suppliers

Benefits of This Approach

This inventory management strategy:

  • Prevents confusion between what you order (components) and what you sell (both components and bundles)

  • Ensures accurate restock suggestions that account for all sales channels

  • Simplifies the purchasing process by focusing on the actual items you need to order
