yes, you are right.. this is possible in material determination.
you need to have a batch job running.
you need to update the material determination table frequently (once in a day etc) through a batch job. And this updation should happen based on the stock (logic is required to build).
So while creating a sale order, you will have alternative material always with stock qty.
its possible through Material Determination. But not possible without ABAP coding.
With the help of ABAP with min coding you can achieve this,
like,
let the ABAPer write coding to check the stock availability of the entered material before triggering "material determination" records.
To do this availability check , then can jsut use the existing Function modules : BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY (OR) AVAILABILITY_CHECK. if the stock found zero / nil, let the "materail determination should trigger, else process as normal .
its already available, doenst need / take much time , but ABAP involvement is needed to fulfill your requirement.
