Supply Allocation Exceptions

A supply allocation calculation may determine that inventory will not be available to meet order demand by the indicated Supply Required By Date. When this occurs, a Supply Allocation Exception is generated to warn you that an order may not be fulfilled in time.

You can check the Supply Allocation Alerts page to view all sales orders currently generating an exception alert. This page summarizes orders with one or more exceptions and displays details about exceptions that are generated.

1. Go to Transactions > Order Management > Order Allocation Alerts.

2. You can optionally filter the list of alerts by subsidiary, status, and style.

3. Click the order number on a line to display demand exception details.

   For each exception, NetSuite displays the following exception information:

   • Order Number

   • Customer – links to the customer order

   • Order Priority

   • Status

   • Subsidiary

   • Ship Complete

   • Order Date

   • Earliest Alert Supply Required by Date

   • Sales Channel

   Exception details can include number of days late for a demand order line. Also, related supply orders are linked on the demand order line.

Tip:

If you customize a view, you can select an option in the View field to change the displayed information.
