backorders


Explanation:
These are items that are out of stock when the initial order is placed. So backorders will be delivered/shipped free of cost.

agree  Tim Kynerd: Yes, but see my agreement with Christian above. :-)

  -> You're both absolutely correct.
agree  Christine Andersen: backorders are used as meaning the same as 'backordered items' and sound better to me. But if the client regularly insists on calling them 'items' as a translation for 'stck.' or products etc. then you probably have to comply.
