         <Paragraph>Use this session to generate <Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000029" role="glossary">inventory commitments</Link> of
		  (unblocked) inventory for orders of type <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.ittp#issue" role="option">Issue</GUIRef> that are not yet fully committed. When you generate inventory commitment, LN commits the
		  required inventory to a specific order line. As a result, the available
		  inventory for other orders or other order lines is decreased.</Paragraph>
