I would like to see a functioning backorder system within X-Cart .

It could function like this:

Customer orders three things.

Part A
Part B
Part C

For some reason my inventory was off and Part B is not in stock. The customer has already paid for it. I would like to be able to mark Part B as on backorder in their order and ship them Part A and Part C now and set their order to backorder status. They would receive an email that their order has shipped but part B is on backorder and the backordered item is marked so in the email.

When Part B comes back in stock I want to be able to go into their order and change the backordered product to shipping and set their order to complete. The store should then email them letting them know that that item has shipped.

The email could be as easy two new columns in the invoice Status and Backorder.
