Standard Point of Sale defines that the Backorder status of a part line is based on the Point of Sales parameter Status if not.
When selecting the Use POS Discount category parameter, the Backorder status of a part line is based on the Discount Category from the Codes tab of the Work In Progress (WIP) header.
What do you want to do?
When selecting a part without stock and having the discount category set to E, the status of the parts line is set to E when placing the part on the WIP.
To select a fully backordered part:
Click Point of sale > [no. Company name] > Point-of-sale > Parts > [Operator].
The Parts Point Of Sale form is displayed.
Add a part, without stock, to the WIP via New product.
The Parts Details form is displayed.
The status of the part is set to E.
When selecting a part without sufficient stock and having the discount category set to E, the part line is split and the status of the backordered line is set to E when placing the part on the WIP.
To select a partially backordered part:
Click Point of sale > [no. Company name] > Point-of-sale > Parts > [Operator].
The Parts Point Of Sale form is displayed.

The status is displayed in the grid under product code (P) on the Parts Point Of Sale form.
When a part is superseded the via the supersede open WIP lines program the discount category saved on the WIP header is used to set the status of the part line..

The Supersede Open Order Lines form is displayed.

Select the Best hit under Open order lines per wip for the selected part to use the parts available in the supersession chain.
