  1. Go to Warehouse and delivery > Order supply forecast.
  2. Select the order list and expand its lines.
  3. Review the item, the variant, the Warehouse from which these items must be supplied, the Quantity to be supplied, and the Requested supply date.
  4. Review the State column, find the lines with the Supplied at warehouse state. These goods are now available in stock.
  5. Find the lines with the Expected state. These goods will be available by a confirmed supply order. The Date of supply is defined according to the supply order information.
