Inventory Reservations Logic

Wineshipping has improved how inventory is reserved for orders in the Awesome Client Portal (ACP) to make tracking more accurate and flexible.

Here’s what’s new:

  • Smarter Reservations
    Inventory is now assigned on a First In, First Reserved basis. Once available stock is fully reserved, any remaining items automatically move into a backorder queue, where they’ll be fulfilled as inventory becomes available.

  • Improved Accuracy Across Holds
    Inventory reservations now remain active even when an order is placed on Weather Hold or Fulfillment Hold in the Action Center. This ensures your numbers stay consistent and accurate.

  • Manual Prioritization
    Admin users can use the Force Reserve feature to manually move an order to the top of the reservation list. These orders will appear as Queued Publishing in Open Orders until 14 days before the requested ship date, when they’ll automatically publish to the Warehouse Management System (WMS).

  • Future Reservations
    You can now set aside inventory in advance for upcoming needs—like tasting events, club shipments, or library allocations—using the Future Reservations feature.
