Reserve Inventory to Project

Explanation

Use this function to reserve quantity of a part from inventory. Reservation can be done either manually or automatically.

When the Std Planned Item flag is checked and reservation is done manually, the Manual Reservation dialog box will display only the standard inventory records that are available for reservation. However, when the flag is unchecked, the dialog box will display only the project inventory records that are available for reservation. Project inventory belonging to other projects will not be displayed.
