Company Approves Sales Order
Ideas to incorporate:
- Auto-approval based on authorized CC
- Pending approval in checkout then auto-approve once third-party payment processor (PayPal, GoogleCheckout, etc) sends notification
- Special case statuses and manual approval
Story
Company reserves inventory for approved order, reducing Available To Promise (ATP) quantity. If inventory is not available negative inventory reservations are created and the order is placed on back-order.
