When back order parts the status shows as BO /Needed , what setting in the warehouse needs to be changed to show the status as BO / Allocated ?

The warehouse is currently on Automatic receipt.

 

Hi,

There is an outstanding IMO (Internal Material Order) the WNDIC warehouse ordered the product from a supply warehouse that has not been allocated from the supply warehouse.

Summary backorder/needed:

  • WNDIC is backordered trying to get the product from another warehouse
  • Supply warehouse does not have the product allocated yet for this logistic request.

Automatic Receive only bypasses requiring a receiving document when the product is shipped to a warehouse.  If that screenshot is for the WNDIC, this setting has no bearing changing the backordered/needed to backordered/allocated.

You need to have a shipment sent to the warehouse that is supplying this product to the WNDIC warehouse.  Once there, it hopefully would be allocated automatically when received by that warehouse.

If not, you may have to use the General Queue to allocate the product for that logistics request document.

Personally, I would rearrange the columns in the General Queue module to view the columns in this order so that when you search for the logistics request, it is clear who ordered what.  Here is an example:
