[jira] [Created] (OFBIZ-10518) Inventory (Supply) Allocation Planning

Deepak Nigam created OFBIZ-10518:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Inventory (Supply) Allocation Planning
                 Key: OFBIZ-10518
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10518
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: order, product
            Reporter: Deepak Nigam
             Fix For: Trunk


In the current implementation of inventory reservation flow, inventory gets reserved for the order based on the reservation algorithm (FIFO, LIFO etc). Many times, the fulfilment cycle of the order is too long or due to some unexpected circumstances, the order holds the inventory for a long time. In such scenarios, inventory availability becomes one of the major bottlenecks in fulfilling the other sales order and businesses often remains short supplied against the demand.
 
We can provide a feature (Create, Find and Edit supply allocation screen) to allocate the available and any future supply judiciously amongst existing customers orders by considering different factors like estimated delivery dates, order priority, customer preference etc.
