Explore the end-to-end backorder process, from stock shortages to shipment, with industry relevance, AP considerations, demonstrations, configuration, and SAP best practices, including ATP context.
Explore the SAP SFP road map for ECC and S/4HANA, covering decommissioning, new functionalities, version retirements, and 2025 compatibility changes.
Access SFP from a provider using either the desktop GUI with server details or remote desktop to a Hana SAP environment, then log in to run transactions.
Learn how backorders manage customer balances and stock allocation, delivering in-stock items first, invoicing only shipped items, and keeping orders open until complete.
Understand backorder concepts, rescheduling and ATP, and how stock is allocated across multiple sales orders with daily consolidated deliveries. Evaluate invoicing, milestones, and output handling linked to shipped quantities.
Configure ATP for backorders by enabling the APEP flag on the schedule line item and turning off the check without recommended lead time; review plant rules and BAEO processing.
Configure billing to be delivery related with no zero quantities so invoices reflect shipped items in backorders, avoiding zero-line invoices when stock is insufficient.
Learn how SAP schedule lines determine delivery dates using ATP rules, route data, and lead times, with forward and backward scheduling and material availability logic.
Rescheduling, core concept
Rescheduling in SAP
See how rescheduling allocates stock to backordered items, updates the delivery date, creates deliveries, performs PGI, and uses the delivery creation date to generate invoices via mass delivery creation.
