Reservation Backorder Defaults

Reservation/Backorder fulfillment rules are used during fulfillment to determine when to hold demand in the unfulfilled state until enough quantity has been reserved and to determine in what state to backorder demand if enough quantity is not available. Order Management uses the reservation/backorder rule defaulting engine to default the reservation/backorder rules to the order schedule:

• Header level reservation rule

• Line level reservation rule

• Line level backorder rule

• Line level backorder reservation rule

These order schedule reservation and backorder rules can be modified on the order schedule page and they are passed to inventory.

Note:

Changes to these rules for existing sales orders are not changed or reevaluated but the changes are passed to Inventory. Rule changes on existing demand lines must be changed in Inventory. For example, if rule is entered on the sales order and the Inventory Business Unit Ship From is changed, the rules are not reevaluated.
