Move Order Allocation: After the selection of orders, this will try to allocate the Move orders created. If selection criteria met but due to any reason, allocation of move order could not happen, the step will be back ordered.
Major reasons for back order are
- Onhand not available
- Any reservation against the available Qty
- At the time of releasing source subinv and locators are Active or not

To check this, run the Shipping Exception report
