01

Matching

Stock is used only for compatible parts in the same material group, while warehouse or rack details remain in the report.

02

Remnant threshold

Material above your minimum threshold is treated as reusable stock; smaller leftovers are cutting waste.

03

Safe selection

A candidate is rejected when stock usage breaks quantity equality or physical capacity.
