From what we are seeing in production the "MFG ORDER PER CUSTOMER ORDER" 
is a "soft link" that doesn't ensure no other orders can be allocated. 
Once the RM is done the link appears to be lost.
What I was hoping is that be selecting "Stock configurations" on the item 
balance it would track part and S-Number in IM.

Re: [MAPICS-L] Ensuring Stock Is Allocated to a CO
I don't think (PDM/EPDM)  features/options are the solution,  at the end 
of the day when you do the "RM" transaction the
inventory is controlled by Item number and not by the feature/option.
Maybe you can try with the option "4. MFG ORDER PER CUSTOMER ORDER" when 
creating_releasing a Mfg Order, this will create a link between the COM 
order and the Mfg Order.

[MAPICS-L] Ensuring Stock Is Allocated to a CO
We mfg to order and in some cases the pack configuration is special for a 
specific customer and order.  For example we may have a special pallet for 
international shipments or pallet height for a specific CO.  Since all 
orders are for the same part number is there a way to ensure the stock 
produced on a specific MO, entered by CO, is allocated only to the 
intended order?
We currently have a series of manual processes that are not working well 
to accomplish this.
If we cannot get our needs accomplished by other means we are about to 
look into features/options as a possible solution (i.e. each configuration 
will be a different option).  Before we go this route does this sound 
reasonable if we stock configurations?
