User-Defined Delivery Cycle: Identify and define key points in the fulfillment process and associate them with specific operations such as printing, pick list production, or confirmations.
Variable Workflow: Configure workflow to produce an unlimited number of workflow document profiles, depending on the operating methods of individual departments or
needs of specific customers.
Automatic Back-Order Allocation: Maximize delivery efficiency by allocating newly received inventory automatically across existing sales orders and updating Quantity to Invoice data based on defined rules.
Order-to-Invoice Transfer: Build pick batches for wave picking based on a number of criteria such as customer priority, shipment date, customer class, or document ID.
Extensive Transaction Search: View, track, and modify transactions onscreen using a wide range of parameters such as ID, workflow status, batch number, or custom codes.
Customer Item Code Support: Cross-reference inventory and order-taking tools to the customer's own item codes to speed inquiries from both customer service reps and the customer.

transferring quotes, back orders, and orders to a Fulfillment Order, which can
then be turned into a final invoice for posting.
Tighter Integration to Quantity Fulfilled: Help eliminate manual processes for entering fulfillment quantities on sales line items with automatic updating of Quantity Fulfilled during the Pick Confirmation step.

Line Item Workflow: Prevent workflow from advancing until all line items meet requirements.
