             Summary: Expected arrival of Incoming Shipment needs to be 
reflected over back-order
                 Key: OFBIZ-11457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-11457
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: order
    Affects Versions: 17.12.02
            Reporter: Swapnil Shah


*Business Case*
Many a times its required to promise the delivery date to customers for her 
sales orders that are back-order (BO) based on the expected arrival of future 
incoming/purchase shipments. Currently its not possible without either manually 
pegging the supply to demand or running the whole MRP engine.

*Possible Solution*
To solve for this problem on real time basis, the Reservation flow can be 
leveraged as that makes the determination whether the punched in sales order 
(or demand for production run for that matter) is going to be backordered or 
not.

If and when there is SHIPMENT.ESTIMATED_ARRIVAL_DATE available against the 
scheduled or incoming receipts in the system say with 
SHIPMENT_TYPE_ID=PURCHASE_SHIPMENT (or INCOMING_SHIPMENT) then the reservation 
or post-reservation run can be triggered to peg and allocate the expected 
shipment volume to backorders on FIFO basis and inherit the earliest 
SHIPMENT.ESTIMATED_ARRIVAL_DATE over  
ORDER_ITEM_SHIP_GRP_INV_RES.PROMISED_DATETIME which can be promised and 
communicated to customer.

*Use Cases*
1. Product GZ-2644 has 50 units backordered across 2 sales order placed on 
different dates:
ORDER_1 : Placed as BO on 01/01/2020 with Order Qty = 30 units with all units 
backordered
ORDER_2 : Placed as BO on 01/03/2020 with Order Qty = 20 units with all units 
backordered

Two Shipments for Product GZ-2644 scheduled to arrive on different dates as 
follows:
SHIPMENT_1 : Estimated Arrival Date on 01/25/2020 with Qty=20 units
SHIPMENT_2 : Estimated Arrival Date on 01/31/2020 with Qty=40 units

_*Expected Result*_
Upon reservation, here is how they would get their promised date:
ORDER_1: Although its pegged to both the shipment (i.e., 20 units from 
SHIPMENT_1 and 10 units from SHIPMENT_2) but gets the Promise Date of 
01/25/2020 (as shortness takes precedence over lateness)
ORDER_2: It gets pegged to second shipment (20 units from SHIPMENT_2) and gets 
the Promise Date of 01/31/2020 

2. Product GZ-2644 has 50 units backordered across 2 sales order placed on 
different dates but also has Safety Stock threshold of 30 units to be 
maintained:
ORDER_1 : Placed as BO on 01/01/2020 with Order Qty = 30 units with all units 
backordered
ORDER_2 : Placed as BO on 01/03/2020 with Order Qty = 20 units with all units 
backordered

Two Shipments for Product GZ-2644 scheduled to arrive on different dates as 
follows:
SHIPMENT_1 : Estimated Arrival Date on 01/25/2020 with Qty=20 units
SHIPMENT_2 : Estimated Arrival Date on 01/31/2020 with Qty=40 units

_*Expected Result*_
Upon reservation, here is how they would get their promised date:
ORDER_1: After allocating 30 units for Safety Stock (i,e., 20 units from 
SHIPMENT_1 and 10 units from SHIPMENT_2), its pegged to the second shipment 
(i.e., 20 units left from SHIPMENT_2) and gets the Promise Date of 01/31/2020 
(as Safety Stock takes precedence over sales orders)
ORDER_2: It gets no shipment left to peg to and hence no promised date or can 
be defaulted based on average lead time from supplier.
