Reserved stock

Reserved stock is physically in the warehouse but already set aside for a specific purpose, so it does not count as available. The most common case: when a quote is accepted, the system reserves its products in the default warehouse.

The product page and the warehouse stock list show the Reserved and Available quantities separately. Available is stock minus reserved; picking and the production material check both work from it.

Quotes and reservations:

• On acceptance the quote's physical products are reserved in the default warehouse. If there is not enough free stock of any of them, the acceptance fails with an error message.
• On rejection the reservation is released.
• When the quote is turned into an invoice the reservation ends and the products leave the warehouse as an outbound movement.
• Without a default warehouse, quotes neither reserve nor issue stock.

An adjustment cannot set stock below the quantity already reserved.

Short-term location holds: a connected external system can set aside a quantity in a specific location for a few minutes (at most 24 hours). Unless extended, the hold expires on its own. Such holds cannot be created from the warehouse screens.
