How can I control my inventory and safety stock that I have with my vendor?

I am running Enterprise One 9.2 and I am wondering if there is any feature in JDE that I can use for this scenario:

I have a vendor which I've set a safety stock with them. Once the threshold is reached, my vendor sends me an acknowledgement to confirm procurement.

Anyone in this group have gone through this scenario?

I know I could set up a new B/P and have all items and safety stock set up properly, but I will face another challenge to have manufacturing looking into this new B/P to issue to teh work order entered in a different B/P.
