Conclusion
Standard Bill Only with Inventory Interface Workflow
will work for Manual Order Entry without
customization. Must understand:
Flow will fulfill and go to Invoice Interface and Closed with
or without enough inventory
Need to manage Negative Inventory conditions
If user fails to enter Sub-inventory at time of booking Order
is stuck in Booked
Will not work for imported Orders need to custom
