How to reserve stocks for customers belonging to one sales office ?

[Former Member]

For example, we have 100c/s of a material and we want to reserve 60c/s for customers in one sales office only? the remaining 40c/s can be billed to anyone else. There are no firm orders of these 60c/s as of now from the select group of customers in particular sales office.

Thanks in adv.

Hi,

There are several options depending on your scenario:

If you have ATP activated you can already enter the sales order with a date in the future and the ATP check will block this quantity. If you know the total available quantity of your material you could also use product allocations.

If you are not using ATP you could move some stock to a specific storage location which is not available for SD deliveries.

You can do this by using consignment fillup senario. That means u just create consignment fillup order for that particular customer then do the deliery but no invoice. As soon as the customer consumed the stock then u can issue the bill.

Thanks

Hi,

In general SAP functionality for such a requirement is "Product Allocation", and ATP check in sales order against product allocation.

Check out the documentation on this issue:
