IIRC they are reinforced with the priority that first army on the outliner is reinforced first, then second army in the outliner list etc. The only way to 'prioritize' is to merge/create new armies etc. to change the order on the list.
You have no manpower left. You gain 300 manpower a month. Your armies, were the manpower available, would reinforce by 500 every month. OP is asking how the game decides where those 300 reinforcements go, since based on reinforce speed you should get more than you do, based on manpower availability.
Unfortunately you can't mothball armies, so if you're struggling with reinforcements, it's best to consolidate the regiments you don't need to reinforce right now.
In 1.23 though, if you get your army professionalism high enough you'll be able to send regiments straight back to the manpower pool. We'll have to see how this plays out in practice, but in principle it's an enormous boost to your regular army's flexibility and mobility: you can disband regiments in quiet places thousands of miles away, and then watch those troops immediately start feeding into frontline stacks (or you just rebuild the armies close to where they're needed). Could be pretty amazing for Russia for example, when shuffling forces back and forth between the Chinese front and the European front.
