The entrée system can be setup to track backorders when there is not enough stock on hand to fill an order. When these backorder situations arise, the shortage information for the customer is stored in the backorder file. The Purge Backorders utility provides a means to purge all backorders up to a specific date.

 

The purging of the backorder file keeps the file from growing overly large and lessens the frequency that users will be unnecessarily forced into the Backorder Edit Mode while invoicing.
