Reservations Handling in Back-to-Back Fulfillment

The backbone of the back-to-back fulfillment flow is the reservation that ties a sales order with the supply document.

After the supply document is created in the supply execution application, Oracle Supply Chain Orchestration initiates the creation of a reservation in inventory to tie both demand and supply together. The reservation is managed dynamically and is updated whenever there are demand-side or supply-side changes. This reservation improves fulfillment accuracy and timeliness by ensuring that demand-specific supplies are reserved and prevents misallocation of supply to other demand sources.

You can search for and view reservations in the Manage Reservations and Picks page, which provides detailed information about both demand and supply documents.
