Backorder Allocation Report

Use the Backorder Allocation Report to determine which backorders you can fill. If a backordered item has zero quantities on hand, it does not appear on the report.

The Qty Available field shows the quantity available for allocation (in base units), which is the in-use quantity subtracted from the on-hand quantity. If the Qty Available field is zero, the amount in the Qty Allocated column for the remaining backorders for the item is zero.

The Balance Available field shows the total allocated quantity subtracted from the quantity available. The balance is zero if the quantity backordered is greater than or equal to the quantity available.

The amount in the Ext Price column is the order unit price (in base units) multiplied by the allocated quantity (also in base units). You can use this amount to forecast revenue on filled backorders. If you are using multicurrency, transactions on the report print in the functional, or base, currency.

  1. Use the Data Filter to select the range of filtering options or leave the filter blank to include all available data.
  2. Select the sort criteria for the report from the Sort By section.
    Note: The report shows the order in which backorders can be filled based on your selection. For example, if you elect to sort by order date, the item with the earliest order date is filled first.

  3. If you use multicurrency, select the Print All In Base check box to print all transactions (regardless of the currency in which they were entered) in your base, or functional, currency. Clear the check box to select a different currency from the drop-down list.
