Backorder: An unfilled customer order. A backorder is demand (immediate or past due)
against an item whose current stock level is insufficient to satisfy demand. Backorders may be expressed in "pieces", "SKU's" or in "value". Backorder calculations are often tracked at a variety of levels. Example: Customer, Division, Total Company Aged Backorder: Reports on backorders in past-due time buckets based on the Requested Delivery Date/Requested Ship Date. Our goal is to guide companies that are looking to
optimize their Supply Chain. If you have specific questions about Inventory
