Reservations

Hi,

Is it possible to reserve items (stock and non stock) that have been ordered on a purchase order but not yet received?

Is it them possible to allocate this material to specific sales orders and trace the allocation?

Thanks,

  • Yes, you can allocate from a purchase order to a specific sales order.
  • You could only reserve from that Purchase Orders, which Expected Receive Date less then Shipment Date from Sales Order. That Purchase lines are accumulated in Reserve form (Sales Order, Functions -> Reserve).

    That correct. In addition to the usual things that must match (Item No., Location Code, Variant Code, etc) the Expected Receipt Date must be before the Shipment Date. It's a common reason I've seen for things not to appear as being available to reserve. It makes sense, though, as you cannot ship things that you won't have yet.
