Inventory Reservations Logic

Wineshipping has enhanced how inventory is reserved to orders within the Awesome Client Portal (ACP). Beginning April 11, 2025, this updated reservation logic will be implemented for all clients.

This feature enables more accurate inventory tracking by assigning reservations on a First In, First Reserved basis. Once available inventory is fully reserved, any remaining items move into a backorder queue, where they are prioritized as inventory becomes available.

With improved accuracy, inventory can now remain reserved for orders in Weather Hold or Fulfillment Hold within the Action Center. Additionally, admin users can manually prioritize an order by using the Force Reserve feature to ensure it reserves ahead of others. Orders will go into a Queued Publishing status in Open Orders until 10 days from the requested ship date when it will publish to the warehouse management system (WMS).

Another key enhancement is the ability to create Future Reservations—allowing you to set aside inventory for upcoming needs such as tasting events, club shipments, or library allocations.
