Automatically Fulfill Backorders

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 73

Do you have to go through each of the sales orders and do a manual fulfill for Backorders? Is there a method or utility in Microsoft Dynamics GP where you can automatically fulfill backorder quantities?

Thank you.

    RE: Automatically Fulfill Backorders

    That depends on your Allocate By option setting in SOP Document Setup. Here is that description.

    Allocate By

    Use this field to determine how orders with this order ID will be allocated. You can allocate by line item, document, and batch, or not at all.

    This field isn’t available if there are unposted orders using the order ID.

    Line Item   If you select this option, items will be allocated as they're entered on the order. If a quantity shortage exists for an item, you'll be required to enter the quantity shortage options as you enter the items.

    Document/Batch   If you select this option, you can allocate entire documents or batches using the Sales Allocation-Fulfillment Options window. This option allows faster data entry because items aren't checked for quantity shortages until the entire document or batch is allocated.

    None   If you select this option, the orders won't be allocated. After the order has been transferred to an invoice, fulfillment order, or back order, the items will be allocated according to the options you select for those document types.
