Backordering an Entire Delivery
You can backorder an entire delivery, which returns all delivery lines assigned to that delivery to the planning pool. The delivery, if assigned to a departure, will remain assigned to its associated departure.
If the Process Inventory Online check box is checked, the Update Shipping Information and Inventory Interface concurrent programs are automatically run when you backorder the delivery. If the Process Inventory Online check box is not checked, you must run the Update Shipping Information and Inventory Interface concurrent programs via the concurrent manager. See: Update Shipping Information and Inventory Interface
