BackOrder Process
If you were not able to ship all the items on the order - the customer may want you to create a back order.
Backorders are created manually after an order has partially shipped.
- Find the order that partially shipped (it will be invoiced and closed)
- Action menu - create backorder
- This creates a backorder with the same number as the original order (with a letter appended - for example SO00123 will have a backorder SO00123a )
- The backorder will have all the information from the original order - including order date.
- The Order is like any other order - once Authorised it will be immediately available for picking in the warehouse.
