  Have you ever run MRP? You need to run it from Requisition worksheet and it will tell you want you need to purchase. You need to setup the items correctly with safety stock.
  
  You could also just write a simple report that would look at qty on hand and safety stock on item and display the list or create the requisition line and then create PO
  
  There is no automatic way in Navision to create po.

  Thank you for your help. I am already aware of the inventory report.
  
  I am interested in the system automatically generating a message or an alert informing me of the information without requiring the report to be created.
  
  Is that possible???
  
  Thanks.

  You can use NAS (Navision application server). Setup job scheduler on it so that it can run reports or codeunits. Then write a codeunit that would look at inventory and create the PO.
  Then schedule the codeunit in job scheduler. Nas will monitor the job scheduler and run the codeunit based on when you schedule it.

  HI;
  
  I am hoping that someone can help me.
  
  I am trying to figure out how to set up automatic reordering (auto purchase order) of inventory items based on item reorder points. I would like the system to automatically alert me.
  
  If anyone knows how to do this I would appreciate help.
  
  Thanks!

  
  Dont use alerts. Adapt the customers work routines instead.

  But why dont you use, NAS (Navision application server). Setup job scheduler on it so that it can run MRP and after getting the result from MRP system will carryout action message automatically to make the PO.
  For this at every item default vendor should be defined. Use net change plan function on daily basis in the job scheduler settings.
