Compute and replace allocated inventory for next term? -

Checking this option will reallocate inventory for titles that will be used in the next open term that were also used in the term you are closing and set their order decision status to REWORK, if it had been WORKED prior to closing the term.  Reallocation is based on the following equation:

Actual Buyback for each open**  term PLUS Received amounts for each open** term = Quantity A

Quantity A MINUS Sales in each open**  term = Quantity B

Stock On Hand MINUS Quantity B MINUS Allocated Inventory for each open** term = Reallocation amount for the next Active term

**The amounts (Actual buyback, Received, Allocated, and Sales) do NOT include the term you are closing but DO include other campuses in the selected location, not just the campus whose term you are closing.  The calculation does not include terms in other locations.

If you do not check this option, it will not reallocate for the next open term.
