Non - Sellables

The non-sellable stock list is a dashboard that records the locations where we currently possess inventory of a particular item that is not listed on any of our websites. This implies that we are holding stock without actively promoting or advertising it

Start here 

1. Ensure that the item is not present on the AOL website, if it is, there is no action required.

2. Search the model in the queue to check for any communications that might have led to the inclusion of this model in the non-sellables list.

3. If stock has been superseded check to see if inventory and sales orders are equal , if so reserve stock 

4. If you are certain this is a brand that we should sell on AOL eg Residentia keep the stock but if you are certain this is not a brand we sell eg rogerseller stock Follow “Transferred incorrectly “

Given the information above, the following guidelines will assist you in determining the appropriate steps to take based on the circumstances leading to the non-sellable status.

Follow “Transferred incorrectly “  if the below exists 

1. Stock was not originally ordered into our AOL location , stock was transferred across 

Follow “Supplying for interstate shorts” if the below exists 

1. Stock was originally ordered into our AOL Location 

2. We are sure this model can be sold on AOL ( is not exclusive) - check with content , prm or supplier

3. Model has been marked quit and superseded 

4. Inventory in AOL locations only exceed the Qty on sales order

Follow “Content Enrichment” if the below exists 

1. Stock was originally ordered into our AOL Location 

2. We are sure this model can be sold on AOL ( is not exclusive) - check with content , most recent price lists , TL , PRM or Supplier if not sure 

3. Model is active

Follow “ Exclusive model ‘ if the below exist 

1. Stock was originally ordered into our AOL Location 

2. We have been told this is a exclusive model to another B.U

Supplying for interstate shorts

The reason why stock for the specified SKU (eg APL600) at the assigned location (eg 201MAIN) is a result of the discontinuation and quitting of models. In situations where the available inventory exceeds the outstanding sales orders , the system will automatically identify and reserve that stock for a transfer. This transfer is crucial for fulfilling the order, especially when there is inadequate local stock to meet the demand or the customer does not want to go with an alternative model. It's important to note that this transfer is not automated, and someone needs to manually initiate the process.

1. Send an email to both the shorts manager and team leader, notifying them to promptly initiate the processing of these short orders.

2. We suggest either following up on any remaining purchase orders , customer wanting an in stock alternative or transferring the remaining stock

Content Enrichment

1. Ensure the model has been set up correctly in NAV ( pricing , potential kitting etc ) 

2. Check PSS that AOL has pricing loaded if not load it 

3. Send a request to content to enrich the model on the website here 

4. Monitor this model regularly to ensure it undergoes enrichment as this will continue to show up on the non-sellables till it is

Exclusive model 

Within our winnings umbrella, we operate various businesses. Our retail branch sells diverse products aligned with the individual branding of each business. Given this context, it is customary for us to offer different models and brands exclusively available to specific entities within our group. Consequently, stock is frequently transferred among these entities.

1. Confirm with the supplier this is a exclusive model or that we simply do not sell on AOL ( would be either winning or commercial exclusive) 

2. Fix the “Reserved Qty. on Inventory” field in nav 

3. Transfer stock across to relevant business unit in the same state 

4. Notify the individuals listed below via email, informing them that we have transferred stock into their respective location codes.

5. Determine the process through which stock was ordered into our AOL location and implement preventive measures. For example, if the algorithm was responsible for the order, include an order exclusion as a solution.
