Marking PO-SO | Picking List Reservation

Hi all,

I am reviewing a process in our Supply Chain, please see below what I would *expect* to happen.

1. Create Sales Order X for 1000 units of Item Y

2. Use 'Find Sales Order' to create a Purchase Order thereby linking (marking) them together

3. Generate Picking List on Sales Order for 1 unit of Item Y (to generate a Credit Limit Check)

4. Generate Product Receipt on Purchase Order for 1 unit of Item Y

5. Use Product Receipt to complete the Picking List

6. Packing Slip and Invoice

The problem that I run into is this: Because the Product Receipt is generated AFTER the Picking List it seem that the reservation is made towards the Sales Order Line and not the Picking List itself, I follow the process until step number 5 where it blocks me from using that batch quantity for the Picking List because it's reserved on the Sales Order Line. Have anyone seen/solved this?

Does anyone have any suggestions? Not including

- Changing the order of the Product Receipt/Picking List, using Automatic reservation on the item/Sales Order Line
