It is always equal to the quantity already allocated in the order line (Allocated Quantity + Shortage Quantity). To increase or decrease the quantity to be allocated, this quantity must be increased or decreased.
If the INIALLORD - Initialization of quantity to be allocated in the order parameter is set to 'Yes', the quantity to be allocated is initialized by the total quantity that must be allocated on the order line (if the ordered quantity for the order must be modified, the quantity to be allocated would then be recalculated).
If the order is not Fully signed though the approval circuit is managed and the SOHAPPALL - Non-signed order allocation parameter is set to 'No', the quantity to be allocated cannot be entered and is not initialized with respect to the ordered quantity. The same behavior is applied if this SOHAPPALL - Allocation order not approved parameter is set to 'Yes'but that the WIP generation for the products managed in stock is forbidden for the orders that have not been approved (SOHAPPORD parameter set to No). The allocation of an order without WIP is not unauthorized.
The quantity entered can be greater than the ordered quantity. A warning message will signal this. The allocation is carried out on saving of the order.
If customer reservations exist for this product and if the USERERBPC - Consumption of customer reservations parameter is set to the value 'Yes', the reservations carried out by the customer are consumed during the allocation.
If the customer credit is blocked, this field cannot be accessed.

When the order line is associated with this type of back-to-back order, the automatic allocation processes do not allow the allocation of this type of line. The order line is allocated at the time of the associated purchase order receipt or at the moment of the production reporting for the associated production order.
To manage certain occurrences (production delay or supplier shipment...) it is possible to manually allocate (or de-allocate) these lines if the stock is available.
During the production reporting or at the time of the purchase order receipt, if the quantity remaining to be allocated in the order is less than the quantity booked into stock, only the part remaining to be allocated is allocated. The rest of the goods is entered in stock and is available for other orders.
It is not possible to allocate an order line managed with direct orders.
