At this moment the physical reservation is undone and the quantity becomes available for use in other production orders. Example: The proposed quantity is 1800, the picked quantity is 2100, so, the overpicked quantity is 300. When picking is finished, a quantity of 2100 is physically reserved. When the production order is ended, for the overpicked quanity of 300, the physical reservation is undone. Note: Some of the overpicked quantity can be consumed by the production order as well.
