Sales order allocations can be used for handling the distribution of goods that are stocked in low quantities or can be activated for a particular item in the event of a shortage in stock. But most importantly it is a powerful tool that enables the allocation of goods that are in great demand – but in short supply, i.e. special edition, promotional or perishable items, to be distributed first to your best customers.
You can manually create sales order allocation proposals or automatically create sales order allocations using the Firm allocation functionality.
