Assign Quantity fulfills all Sales Orders intelligently
Assign Quantity is your reservation-helper app that enables you to provide fast and reliable order promises to customers, and fulfill all Sales Orders with the best possible assignment of item quantities in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
This is why Reservations in Business Central are bad for your business
Item Reservations in Business Central don't help you fulfill all your customers' demands.
Traditionally, a sales order to be delivered in 3 months' time can easily block you from delivering to another customer today, because Business Central has reserved the items. If you asked a human, they would re-plan and deliver to the customer today, because there is plenty of time to replenish the inventory and deliver the first sales order in 3 months.
Reservations in Business Central are often annoying.
- They make you turn down orders unnecessarily, because Business Central says you have no available stock (even though you have).
- The sales reps can't promise availability and delivery date to their customer, because the numbers on the sales order lines cannot be trusted. You have to check to make sure.
- If you want to change reservations to be able to fulfill all sales orders, you must go through an annoying number of steps and actions.
Main Benefits of Assign Quantity
Assign Quantity calculates more intelligently than standard Business Central does.
For the salesperson: Sales Reps can 100% trust availability on the sales order, while Assign Quantity handles the re-planning and reservation-juggling in the back. If items are not available, Assign Quantity offers alternatives, like a later delivery date.
For the planner: With Assign Quantity it becomes easy to change assigned quantities on Sales Orders. If supply orders change, you can reassign all demand orders in one go – in the order they were entered – making sure the first entered Sales Orders get the items you have promised.

Great features with Assign Quantity
Reliable order promises
With Assign Quantity you can quickly tell a customer if an Item is available in the time and quantity the customer requires.
Soft reservations are smarter
Assign Quantity creates soft reservations to make sure the first entered Sales Orders always receive the items you have promised.
Intelligent fulfilment of demands
Assign Quantity always calculates the best possible fit for fulfilling all customer demands.
Easy bulk re-assignment of sales order quantities
If supply orders are delayed or quantities changed, you can use a single action to reassign all demand orders – in the order they were entered.
You are not left without alternatives
If the required quantity is not available, Assign Quantity will suggest moving a Shipment Date, if it means the quantity can be assigned completely.
Your hands are not tied
You can easily change assigned quantities on Sales Orders by typing directly in the Assigned Quantity field.
Intercompany assignments
If you manage intercompany orders and use another app for transacting intercompany, you can use Assign Quantity to assign directly in a Sales Company.
Remaining Shelf Life and Expiration Date
You can assign quantities with regards to Remaining Shelf Life (RSL) requirements, so items that are due to expire will not be assigned. This is based on the Expire Date in Business Central.
