• Key Concepts: 
  Back order is a term used in SAP Anywhere to refer to an order that has been placed by a customer but cannot be fulfilled due to a lack of inventory. This can occur when the customer orders more items than are currently available in stock. 
  
  How to use it: 
  When a customer places an order for more items than are currently available, the system will automatically create a back order. This back order will remain open until the inventory is replenished and the order can be fulfilled. The customer will be notified when the back order is fulfilled and their items are shipped. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to keep track of back orders and ensure that they are fulfilled as soon as possible. This will help to maintain customer satisfaction and ensure that orders are not delayed unnecessarily.
