  Key Concepts: 
  A resulting order is a type of order created in the Flexible Order Transactions (FOT) component of SAP's Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. It is created when a customer order is split into multiple orders due to capacity or availability constraints. The resulting order contains the same information as the original customer order, but with different delivery dates and quantities. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP, a resulting order is created when a customer order is split into multiple orders due to capacity or availability constraints. This can be done manually or automatically, depending on the settings in the FOT component. Once the resulting order is created, it can be tracked and managed just like any other order in SAP. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a resulting order in SAP, it is important to ensure that all relevant information from the original customer order is included in the resulting order. This includes delivery dates, quantities, and any other relevant information. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the resulting orders are properly tracked and managed so that they are not forgotten or overlooked.
