Shortages by Work Order Subtab

The Shortages by Work Order subtab displays the list of work orders along with associated assemblies having potential shortages. The results are based on the dates chosen in the Date Range field. You can modify the date range based on your business requirement. The SuiteApp prioritizes and displays the work order results based on work order production start dates or transaction dates (if Demand Planning feature is enabled). You can filter the work order results based on the Start Date, Work Order, Assembly, Component, and Insufficient Supply.
