Total Units in Backlog

The total units in the backlog (pipeline) will vary each day. It’s important for you to remember that this number changes from hour to hour depending on what the team has set live. It’s good practice to download a copy of the version you are working with just in case you need to look back at it.

The backlog number comes from our Salesforce DigMS Fulfillment Pipeline report. It contains both Fulfillment Requests with live websites and without live websites.
