To Replan Back Orders

If some items have been received to inventory, you can replan the back orders that include these items from the Recalculate Inventory (IN505000) form. Alternatively, you can open the particular back orders from the Process Orders (SO501000) form.

To Replan Back Orders for Received Items

  1. Open the Recalculate Inventory (IN505000) form.
  2. In the table, select the unlabeled check boxes for the items that have become available for shipping.
  3. On the table toolbar, select the Replan Back Orders check box.
  4. On the form toolbar, click Process.
Note: The system does not reallocate items when it replans back orders. For each replanned back order of the order type that requires allocation—that is, if the Require Stock Allocation check box is selected for the applicable order type on the Order Types (SO201000) form—you have to manually allocate items before further processing the order.

To Open Back Orders

  1. Open the Process Orders (SO501000) form.
  2. In the Action box, select Open Order.
  3. In the table, select the unlabeled check boxes in the rows of the orders with the Back Order status that you want to open.
  4. On the form toolbar, click Process.
