OOB Scheduled Job - Stock Rule Runner

[SNOW User8]

Hi All,

Want to know the flow/process of  OOB Scheduled Job - Stock Rule Runner..

If anyone know about this, kindly share your comments

Threshold as name suggests is a level where something would/should happen. In Stockroom's case it is used in Stock rule created so that if the quantity is less than Threshold a notification should be triggered.

For e.g. Stock rule for Laptop is created with threshold 5. Whenever quantity is less than 5 notification would be triggered to Stock room manager so as to refill the stock with necessary laptop.

Order would mean refilling the number of items so as to reach atleast the threshold level. This is further invoked by Script include StockRuleTransfer which has various functions that are triggered accordingly.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,

Jaspal Singh

Hi Jaspal,

When I verify the Stock rule runner scheduled job, I could see that the query is actually fetching only the restocking option as "stockroom" and rest of the logic is based on those records.

I couldn't figure out in docs where it says system will create a PO when the restocking option is "Vendor" and it pass the threshold. Have you got any idea?

Hi I know this is old, but I wanted to leave this here for anybody in the future that is digging down this rabbit hole.

Despite ServiceNow's documentation calling it a "Scheduled Job", it is actually a "Schedule Item"; on the sys_trigger table.  I included a link to the Stock Rule Runner Schedule Item below.
