Loading Date in Sales Order

[Former Member]

Hi

Could any one help to advice on the "Loading Date" derivation in sales order item detail (shipping view) in detail including customization settings.

In addition;

-- I have a part sufficent stock

-- Loading date is say 11-02-2009, but delivery is happen 13-02-2009 (delayed).

What could be the rootcauses.

Please show me a complete light on this issue

Thanks so much for support

Regards

Delivery date is the date on which goods reached the customer.

Loading date is the date on which Picking/packing & Transportation planning must have been completed to the start the loading only.

On Goods issue date Loading is completed and it leaves for the customer on this date to reach the customer on the Delivery date.

In your case loading date is 11/02/2009 and Delivery date is 13/02/2009.

That means loading time + Transit time = 2days, therefore system is giving delivery date as 13/02/2009.

Hi,

In your case it may be route dependent. So also check route & stages TCode OVTC.

Loading date is determined based on the settings you maintain in TCode OVLZ for your shipping point.

Hi,

Loading date is date by which picking and packing must be completed so that the goods are ready for loading and for the delivery to reach the customer on time.

You can activate this in Logistics execution>Basic Shipping functions>Scheduling-->Define Scheduling by saels document type and Define Scheduling by shipping point

Check for sales document type whether the indicatior has marked in delivery scheduling
