Omni-channel multi-level demand prioritization and allocation

1. A computer-implemented method of multi-level replenishment planning and execution with independent channel demand prioritization by a server, comprising:

scanning, by one or more imaging devices, an identifier associated with the product;

generating, by the one or more imaging devices, a mapping of the product in the multi-level supply chain network, wherein the one or more imaging devices automatically identify when the product is received into or removed from one or more stocking locations;

calculating, using a calculate plan module, a supply of the product for the first supply chain entity for a supply allocation duration time period;

receiving, using a calculate dynamic demand response module, demand orders for the product from the second supply chain entity and the fourth supply chain entity for at least the supply allocation duration time period, wherein the priority of the orders for the fourth supply chain entity are a higher priority than the orders for the second supply chain entity;

allocating, using a generate supply and demand links module, supplies within the supply allocation duration time period to firm plan arrivals based on a location priority and a demand date for the supply of the product;

generating, using the calculate plan module, a shipment recommendation for each allocated supply of the product that meets a firmed planned arrival; and

transporting, autonomously by instructing automated machinery, the product among one or more supply chain entities according to the shipment recommendation to resupply an inventory of the third supply chain entity with the product to meet the order for the product for the fourth supply chain entity.

receive, using a calculate DDR module, demand orders for the product from the second supply chain entity and the fourth supply chain entity for at least the supply allocation duration time period, wherein the priority of the orders for the fourth supply chain entity are a higher priority than the orders for the second supply chain entity;

allocate, using the GSDL module, supplies within the supply allocation duration time period to firm plan arrivals based on a location priority and a demand date for the supply of the product;

generate, using the calculate plan module, a shipment recommendation for each allocated supply of the product that meets a firmed planned arrival; and

initiate, autonomously by instructing automated machinery, the transportation of the product among one or more supply chain entities according to the shipment recommendation to resupply an inventory of the third supply chain entity with the product to meet the order for the product for the fourth supply chain entity.
