Brad,
If they are tailored to allow for negative on hand quantities there is no
method for MAPICS to know when or when not to allocate.
You may want to explore the discreet allocations capability which allows you
to allocate inventory to a specific customer order.  Then, the pick list
will only include allocated (there for available inventory).

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Correcting Shipment after submitted
   I have a customer that  is implementing XA at one of their new
   acquisitions.  This new site sometimes have Customer Orders that may
   include up to 2000 line items.
   They use the "Ship Complete" function in COM when they know they have
   on-hand inventory to by-pass all the shipping screens and to handle all
   the inventory transactions - but sometimes AFTER they've done this for a
   shipment - they find they've made a mistake and have to correct it.
   Apparently the way XA forces you to "back out" the shipment is to go line
   by line and zero out what you said you shipped.  There is no function to
   either just back out the line item that was in error or to easily back
out
   the entire shipment.  Obviously with orders that have many, many line
   items this is a cumbersome task.
   Has anyone solved this by writing a program/programs to allow the backing
   out a specific line item of a shipment or to delete and back out an
entire
   shipment?
