The Allocations tab displays all the allocations associated with a specific order number. This includes the allocation date, SKU, status, and additional allocation attributes.

Allocation Details

Each allocation has its own Allocation ID and you can have multiple allocations for a single order. Allocations are sorted by the most recent allocation request.

By default, each allocation displays Allocation ID, Parent allocation ID, Allocation request ID, and Allocation date. Clicking View more attributes displays the allocation attributes window with additional attributes.

The following table describes the different allocation attributes in the View more attributes window:

Parent allocation IDThe Parent Allocation ID is initially the same as the Allocation ID. The Parent Allocation ID remains constant (isn’t updated) and is used to monitor all subsequent child allocations. For example, if a new allocation is assigned to an order and the Allocation ID is updated, the previous ID (Parent Allocation ID) can still be referenced.
