Customer Back Order Report

The Customer Back Order Report screen is used to generate the 'Customer Back Order Report' that tracks all sales that were not completed due to insufficient quantity and saved as a back order for the customer. Record a Back Order by entering a quantity in the 'Back Order (BO)' field located in the Invoice screen. The report tracks back orders that are recorded and processed from both the Invoice screen (Point-of-Sale) and Catalog screen.
