Intelligent Aluminum Purchasing: Aluminum Inventory recommendations define the Must Buy pool, while every compatible variant below Max remains available as a safe Top-Up. Preferred routing: supported non-anodized 100 / 200 / 300 material is routed to Florida Aluminum Alliance first; supported non-anodized 500 / 600 material is routed to Extrum first. The planner then checks real supplier requirements. If a preferred Florida or Extrum plan cannot form a valid 18 metric tonne order, it automatically tests safe consolidation into Extrusiones Metálicas. If supplier plans are still short, Consolidate & Fill Provider Requirements uses the same closest-container consolidation as the weight-fill button, but treats the target provider's die minimums as a hard requirement: every included die is filled first, and if Max must be exceeded to meet that die minimum, the excess is assigned to the finish with the highest historical consumption for that die. The 18 metric tonne total is not filled until all included dies meet their minimum. Consolidate & Fill Remaining Weight remains the weight-driven option: it targets the closest 18 metric tonne container by remaining pounds. Ready supplier orders are never broken apart. General container-weight fill keeps the one Min→Max replenishment band safety ceiling. Exception: an included Extrum/Metálicas die that is below its mandatory die minimum may exceed Max as far as needed to reach that die minimum, using the highest-consumption finish for that die. Hydro remains temporarily excluded. Freight entered manually in the Order Builder is not guessed here.
