Supply and Demand P4021 Version

Management Console

When a product is on backorder the system will calculate the Backorder Availability Date (calculation will always be performed using quantity 1 and will be recalculated anytime the UOM is changed) based on the configuration of this version. This date is displayed on Product Content and More Info page for Web Stores. For POS the Backorder Availability Date will display on the Product Detail page. If this setting is left blank then the BO Availability date will not be calculated.

The following must be in place for this functionality:

  • Product must have Check Availability flag on in Item Branch
  • Product must have Backorders Allowed flag on in Item Branch
  • Customer must have Allow Backorder flag on in Customer Master
  • Supply & Demand Inclusion Rules defined (P34004)
    • P4021 version used must have the rule defined on Process tab option #3
    • Display tab option #2 must not be blank.  The recommended value is 2.

Remember sales orders represent demand and purchase orders/work orders represent supply.  If you have a product in backorder but no indication of further supply (meaning no purchase order or work orders to increase supply) the Backorder Availability Date cannot be calculated.
