Inventory Allocations

EDI can override the standard procedures with SYSPRO when allocating or back ordering stock when sales orders are created. Select the desired inventory allocation method from the following options.

Ship allocatable stock, backorder otherwise (Allocatable = On Hand - Allocated + On Backorder)

Ship available stock, backorder otherwise (Available = On hand - Allocated)

Ship regardless of available stock

The option "Stock on hand allowed to go negative" must be selected in Inv/Setup/Gen tab in order to use this option.

Backorder everything

Selecting this option will place all the incoming items in the 850 on backorder in the Sales Order.

Ship regardless of availability, warn if no stock

Selecting this option will ship all transactions in the 850 and prompt a warning if stock is not available. As noted above, negative stock must be permitted.

Ship allocatable stock after sorting orders

Selecting this option will allocate stock after sorting the transactions in the sort order selected below in the Sort Method options.

Sort Method

If the option "Allocate After Sorting Orders" is selected above, you then need to select one of the following sorting options. The use of zip codes for the sort is designed to assist shipping in determining into which trucks the shipment will be placed.

Zipcode - Allocate lowest first

Selecting this sort method will allocate stock using the lowest zip code first

Zipcode - Allocate Highest first

Selecting this sort method will allocate stock using the highest zip code first.
