As explained before, the stock orders of the dealer processed in the Point of Sale module, in which a WIP is created. The standard Point of Sale functionality checks with the Stock Management module if the parts that the dealer has ordered are in stock and if the importer has enough quantity.
If the importer hasn't got enough stock of the by the dealer ordered parts, the importer will order the parts at the manufacturer. This will be done by setting the status of the parts that must be ordered on the WIP to S - Stock B/O or V - VOR B/O. After setting the status and saving the WIP, the parts will be created in Purchase Control.
If these created lines are linked to the Purchase header of any other parts that must be ordered, the Purchase Order can be submitted to the Manufacturer.
After the Manufacturer has received the Importer parts order, a Confirmation Order file will be created. This Confirmation Order file will be sent back to the Importer, along with the ordered parts.
The Importer will process the received Confirmation Order file from the manufacturer. After the parts have been received at the Importer, the WIP in the Point of Sale module with the parts order from the dealer is updated by the Confirmation Order program and now the Importer can generate a Confirmation Order file for the dealer.
