DESCRIPTION |
Retailers selling through ecommerce channels often take customer orders, even if inventory is not available, with the expectation of future inventory being available to fill the order. If an order is captured against future inventory, the order is placed in ‘backordered’ status in the order management system (OMS). This web service is used for an external OMS to send backorder reserve requests to RMS when a customer fulfillment is made and backorder release requests when inventory is made available at the fulfillment location. |
