Question:
How to Modify Resupply in RTSM?
Answer:
Resupply levels are managed on the Admin│Resupply page. All studies use Static Resupply and Supply Defaults. Your study may also use Predictive Resupply. See each section below for steps to update the different resupply values.
Note: The below permissions are based on the CPM or IU role and may differ than your study.
1. Resupply Definitions
| Resupply Setting | Definition |
| Initial Supply | The number of kits that will be requested in the initial shipment. |
| Baseline Supply | The amount of inventory the system will try to maintain. |
| Alert Level | The value when a shipment will be requested during the nightly task. |
| Lead Days | Number of projected days it will take for shipments to arrive at the site. |
| Trigger Inv Days | The minimum number of days of projected inventory at the site. |
| Target Inv Days | The maximum number of days of projected inventory at the site. |
| Min Days Between Shipments | The system will not generate another shipment until the quantity of days have passed since the last shipment was requested. |
2. Post 26R1
Every site will have a Supply Strategy. The Supply Strategy will associate the resupply values to the site.
