Backorders

From Inventory > Backorders you can see a listing of all Sales Orders that have items on backorder.

You can click on any Sales Order number to quickly open the record.

You can also scroll to the right to reveal columns with detailed stock information for each order.

You can also select multiple Sales Orders from the list and then quickly generate Work Orders or Purchase Orders for the backorder items using the buttons.

When working with Sales Orders, items that are not currently in stock will automatically be placed on backorder.

You can also manually place items on backorder by clicking on Edit at the top of the order then entering the quantity into the back order field – then hit Save & Close to apply the change.

When stock is available, you can return to the Sales Order and click on Release Backorders to ship or invoice newly available items.
