• Key Concepts: 
  Dispatched backlog is a term used in Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) in SAP. It refers to the process of allocating production orders to available capacity in order to meet customer demand. The goal of dispatching backlog is to ensure that production orders are completed on time and that customer demand is met. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to dispatch backlog, the user must first enter the production orders into the system. Once the orders have been entered, the user can then use the CRP module to allocate available capacity to each order. The user can also adjust the priority of each order, which will determine which orders are dispatched first. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When dispatching backlog, it is important to consider the priority of each order and allocate capacity accordingly. It is also important to consider any constraints that may affect the production process, such as material availability or machine downtime.
