Applying ATP overrides

Use the Inventory dashboard to apply ATP overrides to Items on a global or per-Channels/ Stores basis.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that you understand your organization's inventory management system and its related procedures before using the Inventory dashboard to upload inventory-related data.
  • Ensure that you have a login provided to you that is assigned the System Administrator role. This role is required to access the Inventory dashboard.
  • Review Working with Available-To-Promise (ATP).

About this task

ATP settings are applied to your inventory during catalog upload (as defined within the Catalog data file (items.csv)).
Restriction:
  • If a particular Item or a particular Channels/ Stores are not ATP-enabled, then that Item will appear with its ATP override setting disabled. Ensure that both the item and Channels/ Stores are ATP-enabled in order to apply overrides.
  • If expected inventory exists for a item, ATP cannot be disabled for that particular item.

Procedure

To apply ATP overrides to a item on a global, or per-Channels/ Stores basis:
  1. Log in to Commerce Lab
  2. Select Inventory Manangement.
    The Inventory Dashboard is displayed.
  3. Under the Configuration tab, select Configure Items.
    The Configure Items page is displayed. If a item is ATP-enabled, you can set the global item override on this page.
  4. Depending on whether you want to set per Channels/ Stores or root Channels/ Stores, select the Channels/ Stores which is in the Channels/ Stores dropdown.
  5. Apply ATP overrides to each item individually.

Results

Your ATP overrides are set. Only items that are expressly enabled are backorderable for each store.
