By setting reverse replacements, you can get the set of required products on already published planograms.

First, you need to define the conditions in the Allow Reverse Replacements When attribute for the relevant category or store-category. Product conditions or store-specific conditions determine which placed products can be replaced with new required products.

Next, you need to define the required products that you want to place on the planograms instead of the already placed products. These can be set either directly in the automatic task Automatic Planogram Updates, or as action products within Actions.

Automatic Planogram Updates task - Required Products in Planograms

Required products in Actions allow more flexibility in settings. You can set up multiple sets of required products at once for different categories and stores. You can specify the start and end dates, i.e., the period during which reverse replacement must apply. You always need to check the Require Action Products in Action Stores box.

Actions - Reverse Replacement Settings

If the required product is not found as a suitable candidate among any of the placed products, its record is listed in the Missing Replacements report. The Type column in the report indicates whether it is a standard or reverse missing replacement.

Reverse replacements only work within the standard run of the Automatic Planogram Updates task. They are not supported within Real Time Updates.
