Back order management and back-to-back ordering

Back orders that chase themselves.

When you sell before you buy, every customer line needs to know which supplier order it is waiting on. Orderfy keeps that link from the quote to the delivery.

Back-to-back ordering means buying stock from a supplier for a specific customer order. In Orderfy, ERP software for Australian wholesalers and trade suppliers, each back-ordered sales order line shows the purchase order it is waiting on and that order's due date. When the stock is received it is held for that customer and released to pick.
