Backorders will add the outstanding items from the sale to the Reorder Backordered list in DEAR so a PO can be generated for them. When the required quantity of items is back in stock, the sale order can be fulfilled. Split Orders will cause a new Sale Order to be automatically generated. The original Sale Order will be amended, so the item quantity reflects the amount in stock. This authorised Sale Order can be fulfilled and invoiced immediately. A second authorised Sale Order with the remaining item quantity will be created. This can be fulfilled and invoiced when the item comes back into stock. The outstanding item quantity will be added to the Reorder Backordered list in DEAR so a PO can be generated.
