In real-world operations, completing an order fulfillment or receipt in a single operation isn't always possible. When this happens, the order is considered partially fulfilled or received.
To manage this efficiently, techOMS updates the order status to Fulfilling or Receiving until all items are processed, at which point the status changes to Shipped or Received. The following sections detail these processes along with the corresponding shipment and receipt statuses.

PARTIAL FULFILLMENT
The following table details how Partial Fulfillment is reflected in techOMS according to different scenarios:
FULFILLED = REQUIRED? | DETAILED SCENARIO | techOMS BEHAVIOR | SHIPMENT STATUS | SALES ORDER STATUS |
![]() | A shipment has been received for a single order, but the required quantity has not yet been reached. | Wait for additional shipments. | Short shipped | Fulfilling |
![]() | Multiple shipments were received for a single order, and those cover all the required quantities. | Close order. | Shipped | Shipped |

PARTIAL RECEIPT
The following table details how Partial Receipt is reflected in techOMS according to different scenarios:
RECEIVED = REQUIRED? | DETAILED SCENARIO | techOMS BEHAVIOR | RECEIPT STATUS | PURCHASE ORDER STATUS |
![]() | A receipt has been received for a single order, but the required quantity has not yet been reached. | Wait for additional receipts. | Short received | Receiving |
![]() | Multiple receipts were received for a single order to cover all the required quantities. | Close order. | Received | Received |
