OUTBOUND DELIVERY IS ON BACKORDER..what does this error mean?

[Former Member]

Dear All,

My user is facing this problem when he is trying to create an outbound delivery.

Its a BOM with Component level pricing.

the user has already done partial delivery for that order. & now when he is trying to create another delivery

with referenc to the same order, only the header item of the BOM is coming with a message as

"Outbound delivery is on backorder (check shipping deadline)"

**Please note: This order is created with reference from a contract(CQ), which has got 4 open orders against it.

Is this the problem? if yes then please guide as to how to go ahead?

Please tell me how to go ahead with this.

*And This is very very urgent*

ANYONE HELP ME OUT

Thanks & Regards

Hi rishi

there may be two reason forthat please check

1) contract vaidity maybe over

2) remaining set of deliveries some body has to give the approval please check this maybe the cause.

Hi,

Then, atleast stock will be available for the order I want?

Hello sir,

Hi

Can you see in the order whether the schedule lines have been confirmed for the remaining material.

Hi,

& yes it is showing as confirmed for all the sub-items in bom.

I feel the problem is there are 5 open orders for that contract out of which for one release order, partial delivery is done.

and for that partial delivered order, when i try to do availability check, its not happening. But in the schedule lines for all the Items, the quantity is confirmed.

But for other open release order its showing conifrm quantity when i do availability check.

Regards
