the model number, serial number, received date, location of the model. The next
columns are for allocation information. 'Sold' column defines if this particular
model/serial number must be delivered to the customer that has been attached to
the model/serial number. If it is not sold and it has a customer attached this
means that we have allocated the model/serial number to this customer but, we
may steal from this customer to give to someone else if we could replenish the
model/serial number in time to satisfy the original customer. 'Order' is the
reference to the customers orders. 'Customer' is the name attached to this
model/serial number. 'Delivery Date' is when the model/serial has been
officially setup for delivery. 'Allocated' is the date that the model/serial
number was attached to the customer. 'Allocate' column allows a salesperson who
has rights to allocate inventory to click on the row and allocated a
particular model/serial number to the current order. Such as the follow graphic

enter a price from here or you can move to the 'Points' textbox and enter 25 and
the sold amount will change to 25 percent margin. As you type 25 the 'Sold
Amount' will change to $1,320.00. The cost of the model/serial number is $990.00
On the top right corner there are two choices. 'ALLOCATE ONLY marked as Not

ONLY' will not attach your customer to this current order, but will add the
model number at the 'Sold Amount'

the model number you have selected. It shows you the expected date, Back Order
Date, and the customer that the model is coming in for. If the 'Cust Order',
