Hi Lina,

SAP APO transfers the backorder processing results to the connected OLTP system (for example, the ERP system). The SD document is automatically updated in the OLTP system, meaning that the document is changed. The data for the requirement (requested quantity, requested delivery date/time) is retained. The changes to the document relate to the confirmed quantity and the confirmed date. When stock transport orders are updated, the requested delivery date/time may be shifted into the future, depending on the confirmation situation

If a document item is changed manually in the OLTP system in the meantime u2013 that is, after the backorder processing run in SAP APO and before the results update in the OLTP system u2013 the backorder processing results are not adopted for this item. It is the same for items that have been completely or partially delivered in the meantime.

In order that this restricted results transfer can function, the change management (switched on as standard for documents) must be activated in the OLTP system

Exceptions for non-updation:-

Backorder processing does not support Capable-to-Promise (CTP).

Backorder processing only supports the rules-based ATP check for SD documents and stock transport orders.

Stock transport scheduling agreements cannot be included in backorder processing. In the current setting Filter type, you can see which document types can take part in backorder processing. The document types that you can select when configuring your filter are shown here.

If a lock is set in the OLTP system for items from SD documents, and these items take part in backorder processing, the confirmed quantities are transferred to the order in the OLTP system. Due to the block, however, the order does not adopt the confirmed quantity. In SAP APO, the confirmed quantity can no longer be redistributed in the same backorder processing run. You can change this behavior if you do not set the Confirmation Lock indicator in the filter. This means that these items are excluded from backorder processing.

The same applies if the system resets the lock through the newly distributed confirmation (such as through credit limit). The quantity that becomes free again due to setting this lock can no longer be distributed during the same backorder processing run.
