Configure BOP Variant
This app has been enhanced to support stock transport orders and offer usability improvements for the definition and maintenance of BOP variants, as well as a similar look and feel to the other backorder processing (BOP) apps for advanced Available-to-Promise (aATP), Configure BOP Segment and Monitor BOP Run.
In addition, the app now offers the option of specifying the execution method, the selected document type and the business scenario for which the BOP variant is to be used during an availability check.
