Order Volume Replenishment keeps pickfaces stocked based on actual real-time demand. Unlike Continuous and Demand replenishment, which rely on fixed minimum/maximum levels, Order Volume calculates what’s needed at the moment a pick task is generated — so stock only moves when an order actually requires it.
Before you can use Order Volume Replenishment, it must be added to your HHD implementation. See the step-by-step guide: Adding a Replenishment Flow to your HHD implementation.

​
How it works

Instead of waiting for stock to hit a pre-set low point, the system calculates needs during pick task generation:
  1. The trigger — when a pick task is created, the system checks the available stock at the pickface.
  2. The action — if the required pick quantity exceeds what’s currently on the shelf, a replenishment task is automatically generated to cover the gap.
  3. Smart validation — before creating a new task, the system checks for any existing replenishment tasks that already meet the required quantity, preventing redundant work.
The result is a leaner warehouse flow: stock isn’t moved unnecessarily, and replenishment stays focused on active orders.

Setting up an Order Volume pickface

1

Navigate to the product

From the left-hand menu, click Products and select the item you want to configure.
2

Open the Pickfaces tab

Scroll to the Pickfaces tab and choose to create a new pickface or edit an existing one.
3

Select Order Volume

Locate the Replenishment Type dropdown and switch the setting from Continuous or Demand to Order Volume.

Domain limitation: an Order Volume pickface can only be active for one product at a time. Applying this setting to multiple pickfaces within the same product will not function correctly.

​
Executing the replenishment

Once active, the system handles the heavy lifting, but the handheld (HHD) workflow has a slight variation. Because quantities are dynamic, the Confirmed Quantity field in the Tasks screen stays empty until you enter it — the system waits for your manual input based on current needs.

Open the next replenishment

Go to Replenishment then Next Replenishment.

Enter the confirmed quantity

Enter the Confirmed Quantity — the exact amount of stock you are moving to the pickface.

You must enter a value greater than 0 to complete the task. Entering 0 returns an error and prevents the task from closing.
