Create replenishment service rule
Allows you to activate or deactivate the replenishment service for specific members. Only members who have the rule enabled can generate supply alerts and carry out demand planning.
These settings allow you to customize the control of the replenishment flow, considering that:
does not always replenish supplies for all customers/printers
not always replenishing all types of supplies/consumables
only alerts relevant to the operation are generated
By default, the system will have 3 rules:
Default: disabled, applied to all members.
Toner / Ink / Photoconductor: enabled, applied to all members for Toner, Ink Cartridge and Drum/Photoconductor supplies (if not set).
Fuser / MaintenanceKit / Developer / Belt: disabled, applied to all members for Fuser, Maintenance Kit, Developer and Belt supplies (if not set).
If the rules are adjusted or created, it is necessary to wait for the next processing of the readings before they are applied.
