Symptoms

On Back-to-Back sales orders associated with a Purchase order, the Shipment split causes reservation details to be updated only for the original line. No additional reservation is created for the new quantity on the split line and this is lost.
Users manually updating/splitting the PO shipments according to the partial quantity planned to receive.  As soon as the shipments are split, reservation linking the sales order to the purchase order are updated, but, only for the quantity on the original line, the rest of the quantity is lost. i.e., it does show only the quantity from 1st line of the shipment in PO.
 
STEPS
1. Order management > Sales orders > Create external SO for qty 10 > Book the order
2. Actions > Progress the SO and create PO and approve it. > Line moves to Supply Eligible > Run Requisition Import and Autocreate PO.
3. Purchase Orders > Query for the PO > Approve PO > Click on Shipments > Modify shipment line qty from 10 to 3, 7 > Approve PO again.
4. Inventory > Onhand > Reservations > See qty 3 , (one line, Second line is missing ) - PO Shipment has two lines 3, 7 (Split from 10).
