Re: Reserving Stock

["Don Murphy" <murphydon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

There is no official way of squirelling away stock.... and maybe that's a 
good thing but as we know sometimes customers make us do the wrong thing!

Here are a few ways I found over the years. Each has draw backs...
1. Move the stock to frozen using the inv trx. Use the narrative in an 
agreed fashion (else mod IN009 to force it) for later reporting / tracking.
2. Move the stock to a sep warehouse (by customer).
3. Create a dummy sales order and allocate the stock to the order but leave 
a long delivery time. You would need however to have a long allocation time 
fence.
4. Create a dummy sales order against the customer again with a protracted 
time fence as per 3 above. Depending on your org this may make the stock 
easier to track.

Regards
