OR
you place just 7 orders of Camaros, and only say 3 can be approved or "allocated" a week. Depending on what wheels come in for GM?
2) Thursdays, is the days for approving allocations for all dealerships? or dealership to dealership?

None of the above...
..............................
Example:
Vehicles are allocated weekly.
Wheels - (constraint items) - are allocated weekly
Meaning...Dealer knows how many Vehicles
and whether or not wheels (constraint items) are allocated.
Orders Cycles are from Thursday - Tuesday.
