Create a Sales Order in SYSPRO
SYSPRO
We will cover creating a Sales Order in both Back Order and Release.
Back Order – When creating a backorder item, the item is an out-of-stock product expected to be delivered by a certain date once back in stock.
Release – When creating a release item, the item is in stock and ready to be picked and shipped.
In summary, the main difference between a Sales Order Back Order and a Sales Order Release is that the former represents an order placed by a customer that cannot be fulfilled immediately due to stock unavailability. At the same time, the latter refers to releasing the back-ordered items for fulfillment and processing once they become available.
Sales Order – Sales Orders record the sale or transfer of goods and services to internal and external customers. This document initiates the sale of goods or services to a customer.
Purchase Order – A buyer generates a purchase Order to request goods or services from a supplier or vendor. A Purchase Order is used to initiate and manage the procurement process. It communicates the buyer’s requirements to the supplier to pick and deliver his request.

Open SYSPRO
From the SYSPRO Programs list, browse to Sales Orders / Sales Order Processing / Sales Order Entry
A pop-up might appear asking you whether you want to place a quantity on reserve (Release Sales Order) or place a quantity to ship (Back Order Sales Order). If your SYSPRO company is not setup for Reserve, then the pop-up will appear asking you whether you want to place a quantity on reserve (Release Sales Order) or place a quantity to ship (Backorder Sales Order). Select Place quantity on reserve. If the SYSPRO company is setup for Reserve, then you will not see this pop-up.
These options are dependent on a WMS setting. If the setting isn’t set correctly in WMS and you select Place quantity on reserve, you cannot reserve that quantity.
Next you can release this Sales Order to a Pick Slip in order for the pickers to start picking the required stock codes - Sales Order Release (Single)
