Printing the Backorder and Backorder Exceptions Reports

The Backorder Report shows when items were backordered and from where they were ordered. This report is useful for inquiring on an item for a customer. When you print the Backorder Report, the oldest backorder is matched to the oldest purchase order. The Backorder Report can also be printed through the (T) Order Entry Selectors screen.
