      Prevent Auto Generation of Vendor Orders during Customer Order Placement

       

      By default when you place a customer order and item is out of stock the system will set the missing quantity against vendor order creation.  As a result, when a customer order is processed related vendor order(s) will be created for missing items.  

      Similar feature applies by default to item kits that are out of stock.  Item Kit is a logical grouping whose stock is made up of availability of its components.  As a result, when you add out of stock item kits on a customer order and process that order, item kit components would be automatically reordered from related primary vendors.
