Hi! is there a way to reserve inventory for customers without sales orders? I’m familiar with sales order allocations and transferring inventory to location holds but was wondering if there was another way. The business case is when certain product is low they need to set it aside for priority customers.

Hi @estebanperalta54 

You can reserve inventory for customers by entering the inventory quantity in the Issue or Transfer screen and saving it in 'On Hold' status. You add the information about the inventory held for customers in the NOTE section on the Issue or Transfer screen.

@estebanperalta54 - is this inventory for project or other inventory?  If you’re using project inventory, you can transfer the inventory to the project (ahead of issuing) which prevents it from being issue anywhere else.


One option could be creating a “virtual” warehouse. Reserved inventory could then be transferred to this new warehouse to prevent allocation to other orders and the warehouse can be manually assigned to this reserve warehouse during Sales Order creation.
