This needs to be corrected please.

This is really an issue causing the mrp calculation going wrong seeing the inventory of the special order as free inventory for other orders since special orders are not taking in account in the standard mrp calculation and the extra needed item will not be proposed to be ordered. This leads to stock shortages at customers. Please take this issue seriously.

This week I have experienced a big issue because of this bug.I created a sales order line for 1 pc of a certain item. It was a special order SO line.There is not stockI ran req. worksheet, because it is a sepcial order the SO line is not picked up. So no shortage. That is OKThan create the special order Purcahse Order. Now SO line and PO linked are linked to each other, but not reserved or tracked to each other.Receive the 1 pc from the vendor, now 1 pc is in inventory.I created a 2nd sales order line for 1 pc of the same item. But this time it was not a special order SO line.I ran req. worksheet again and still no shortage because the inventory that should belong to the first SO line which is not yet shipped is seen as available stock for the 2nd SO. So I need (demand) 2 pcs and I only have 1 pc available (supply) but the req worksheet does not see this as a shortage (Only when setup of SKU says 'include inventory')Why is there no reservation or tracking between special order SO and special order PO. What is the advantage for using special orders if there is no tracking?

This needs to be fixed, Would be the best way to connect specific purchases of special orders to the correct sales order.

Special Orders in the current design has no meaning / functionality. Special Orders do not allow reservations for carrying cost from purchase to sales. The current design is lacking in functionality, would need to expand functionality to at minimum of auto-reserve sales line to purchase line.

This would be wonderful for our clients!

How many votes are needed for this to go under review ?

Reservation should work for all types, also for special order. It will help to define if items are available also for special order.

No allowing a reservation between the PO and the SO seems like a gap in the design. I have a couple of customers for whome this is a problem.

This is definitely a defect that should be fixed. Special orders make it very apparent that the items being brought in are exclusive to the sales order. There are link errors if you try to change quantity which further adds to the fact a reservation is made.
