Overview
Stock that will ship on a known future delivery date rather than immediately.
Available From Date
Required for Future records, marking the earliest date the stock can ship. An Available To date is also used when Inventory Dates is set to start-and-end. See Configure Inventory Dates.
Availability Rules
Standard quantity limits still apply — buyers cannot exceed the sellable Quantity — but the order is understood to ship within the configured availability window rather than immediately.
