Material availablity from Planned Orders forms

A user should be able to see if materials are available prior to firming planned production and/or planned transfer orders. Currently one can only see delays and it's not clear if material is available. The current functionality of seeing if material is available when releasing production orders is helpful but ideally the check would occur prior to firming the production order in the first place.

A straight forward way to check material availability at the planned production order stage would be helpful. It would make it managablel to drive the firming of orders when material is available to start production.

I agree with the request, shortage handling in general is not as good as I've seen in other systems.
What I'd really like to see in addition to this is a process that can also be used closer to the point of work order release. An interactive 'bulk trial kitting process', where you can make multiple selections against multiple orders helping to manage those with shortages to enable the best choice of orders for production, whilst the shortages are expedited in.

As part of this would be helpful to be able to filter on the available planned order lines.
