Over-allocation

Over-allocation is optional and can be used in conjunction with replenishments. With over-allocation, you can allocate more items than are available in the pick location and replenishment tasks are created to move the inventory to the correct locations for picking. However, there must be enough items in the warehouse to fulfill the orders.
