Hi Emad,
in default inventory is reserved when
- an order is created or
- an order is picked.
This depends on your store settings.
Settings: Catalog --> Stores --> Store --> Inventory:
"Reserve Inventory" to enable it
"Reserve Order Enum Id" for the reserve logic (FIFO ...)
Additionally to that you have the possibility to create backorders (reserve
inventory for products that are not on stock).
Reservations are stored in "OrderItemShipGrpInvRes" and will be removed when
fullfilled.
There are lots of other configurations posibilities to tweak your process like
- order reservation priority (defined when creating the order)
- reserve from specific facility (defined when creating the order)
- temporary reservations (reserve inventory before order is created) -
this needs some programming to activate it for your needs.
- ...
If reservations are still not working:
1.) Check your product store settings
2.) Check your product settings (with demo data GZ-1000 is a good canditate for
testing inventory reservations)
As far as I know there is no inventory reserve logic for quotes but you can
easily create an order from quotes or use temporary reservations.
Best regards,
Ingo

Betreff: Best Practices for reserving inventory
Hello Community,
I see that this step is not happening when creating a sales request. What is
the best practice for this and how it’s currently handled in Ofbiz; when
creating a quotation or order?
Regards,
Emad
