To ship all available items now:Use the Ship Available hot key on an order's Status screen to automatically create an order generation with all the items that your customer can pick up now.
When you use this hot key, the system searches the order for any product quantities that are available now. Then, regardless of the order status for those products, it combines the products into a single new order generation that your customer can have immediately.
For example, let's say your customer is ordering twelve widgets and four widget adapters, along with other items. But only half of the widgets and the adapters are in stock. When you mention this, your customer says, "Give me everything you've got today. I'll get the rest later." Use the Ship Available hot key to create an order generation for the six widgets, two adapters, and all the other items that are available now.
To ship all available items now:
Create or open a sales order, and display the order's Status screen.
Use the Ship Available hot key. the system changes the first order generation to an order status of Pick Up Now, and includes on it everything available.
Verify that the Order Status settings are correct for the other order generations. These settings specify how the remaining items are handled when available.
Press Esc to process the order.
