A dependable ERP system is an invaluable tool for any business looking to track and evaluate sales performance. In this blog, Acumatica users can gain key insights on how to solve the “Sales Order Error: Shipment cannot be confirmed for the order with the ship-complete setting”. There might be scenarios where, for a sales order with more than 1-line items, the quantities are out of stock in the warehouse. Hence, while the shipment document is prepared for the ales order, the following error gets triggered. In such a case, the user can place a backorder for the items which are out of stock.

To allow the system to place on back-order the below mentioned steps can be followed:
- Open the Sales Orders (SO301000) form. Click on + icon to add a new record.
- Select the customer for whom the respective Sales order is being created.
- Click on the pencil icon of the Customer field.
- This opens the Customers (AR303000) form in a pop-up window.
- Head on to the Shipping tab and under Shipping Instructions section select Shipping Rule as Back Order Allowed. And then click on the Save button.
6. Now, add the items to be sold to the Sales Orders form. Save the form and then click on the Create Shipment button.
- In the current scenario, let us assume that the sales order is created for APPLES & ORANGES inventory items and only APPLES would be shipped for now.
- So, after entering into Shipment (SO302000) document, delete the line with the ORANGES stock item and click on Save button.
- And then click on the Confirm Shipment button.
10. Hence, the shipment for the APPLES stock item has been created.
