Show Availability based on Inventory in Time
With this setting activated, inventory in time is used.
This means that the system will take expected receipt dates and shipment dates in account.
When you have no inventory for an item, and a receipt is planned on March 1, you will get a red Availability Indicator when you have a sales line with a shipment date of February 25.
When you change the Shipment Date of the sales line to March 5, the indicator will turn orange (meaning that supply has been planned).
