Thanks Jacopo,
It definitely helps. I thought its intended use was to issue
materials/components even if they didn't exist in inventory. Since
that's not the case I don't think its broken.

Hi Christian,
that part of the system definitely needs some love and I understand your
confusion.
If I well remember the intended behavior is the following:
* if "Fail If Items Are Not Available" is set to Yes: the system will only
issue materials that are not reserved by a sales order; i.e. in order to succeed you will
need enough ATP
* if "Fail If Items Are Not Available" is set to No: the system will possibly
"steal" reserved items, if needed; i.e. in order to succeed you will need at least enough
QOH
* in both cases, if there is not enough QOH for the materials, the operation
will fail
I hope it helps,
Jacopo

Sorry, I should have been more clear. The same error indicating that there is insufficient
material inventory that occurs for the "Yes options also occurs for the "No"
option.

When the "Fail If Items Are Not Available" options are set to "No" and the "Materials Required By The
Running Task" form is submitted, the same thing that happens when the value is set to "Yes" occurs. Is the
"No" option supposed to allow issuances to occur even if the materials do not exist anywhere in inventory? What is the
purpose of that field?
