Back-to-Back ordering is the facility to raise purchase orders on suppliers automatically from any sales order details which have not already been reserved in stock or otherwise satisfied. The Datafile Software Back-to-Back Order Accessory supplies the routines and parameters needed for you to do this. Both the sales and purchase order processing system must be present on your system if you want to use this facility.
Back-to-Back ordering is a batch process, which generates one or more purchase orders by examining the sales order details for any which require purchase orders to be raised. There are many set-up configurations to allow you choices such as whether each applicable sales order detail is to raise an individual purchase order, or whether to group orders for the same supplier into a single purchase order.
