Shortages & Requisitions
See parts that open work orders need but stock cannot cover, and raise a purchase request.
Overview
Shortages compare parts on open work orders with free stock. A requisition creates one draft purchase request in Purchase, which keeps the link back.
When to use shortages & requisitions
