BMW gives out allocations to the dealers on a regular (I think monthly) basis. They can also trade allocations with other dealers. For example, if they need to order a vehicle type that they don't have an allocation for they can trade one of their other allocations to another dealer for their allocation.

You will see many posts on here that have quotes similar to "If you don't get a production number you don't have a vehicle ordered". That is because anytime a vehicle is ordered with BMW a production number is supplied.
