Complete Overview of Reserved Inventory

When there are a large number of open orders, keeping track of inventory reservations becomes crucial for effective planning of deliveries, production, and procurement.

The solution provides a comprehensive overview of order reservations (firm reservations) and provides users with accurate information about which quantities have already been reserved for customers and where there may be discrepancies between ordered and available quantities.

This gives the company better control over its inventory and reduces the risk of delivery delays.

Detailed Overview of Order Reservations

The system provides a detailed overview of all reservations for individual orders and items.

Key information is available for each position:

• order number,
• order date,
• client,
• item number,
• item name,
• unit of measurement,
• ordered quantity,
• reserved quantity,
• unallocated quantity.

This overview makes it possible to quickly identify orders for which the reservation has not yet been fully completed and to take timely action to ensure delivery.

Summary by Item

A summary overview by individual items is also available for inventory planning and management purposes.

The display includes:

• item code,
• item name,
• current inventory,
• total quantity ordered,
• total reserved quantity,
• the difference between the ordered and reserved quantities.

This makes it possible to determine, all in one place, which items pose a potential risk to future deliveries and where additional ordering or production will be necessary.

Planning and Procurement Support

The booking overview enables faster and more reliable decision-making when:

• procurement planning,
• production planning,
• inventory management,
• scheduling deliveries to customers,
• tracking open orders.

Decisions are based on actual reservation data, not just on current inventory levels.

Early Risk Detection

The system quickly identifies situations where:

• The ordered quantity exceeds the available reservations,
• Stock is insufficient to fulfill open orders,
• There are critical articles with a high number of reservations,
• There is a risk of delivery delays.

This enables timely action and reduces the likelihood of customer dissatisfaction.

Greater transparency in the sales process

With a centralized view of reservations, sales, purchasing, production, and logistics all have access to the same data.

This improves:

• interdepartmental coordination,
• planning activities,
• an overview of outstanding obligations,
• reliability of supply.

All participants in the process can make decisions based on consistent and up-to-date information.
