Hello,

This can be used to show on schedule line screen how dates are shown - most useful for cases where rescheduling occurs. If left blank, only the current date shows. If one of the other options is used those dates are displayed.

Hi,

Commitment dates switch for calculation rule

Key that controls how the commitment quantities should be calculated per

sales document type.

Use

The commitment date is calculated using the delivery time for releases

to contracts with delivery times, or sales orders that refer to

quotations containing delivery times. The committed quantity results

from the agreed delivery time or the confirmed quantity, according to

the calculation rule set here.

Dependencies

You can set the following calculation rules:

o A: Consider agreed delivery time

Here, all required schedule lines are committed for the date that

lies at the agreed distance from the delivery time, according to the

date on which the order was placed. If the customer requests a later

date, this can be confirmed. The confirmation does not affect the

calculation. If you do not enter a delivery time, the system does

not calculate a committed quantity.

B: First confirmation date

The committed quantity is calculated according to the first

confirmed quantities. If a delivery time exists for the item, the

system takes it into account, as in calculation rule A, and confirms

the earlier date. The commitment date is recalculated if the

material, quantity, first date, or delivery time change. The

quantities confirmed then are valid once the document has been

saved.

C: First confirmation date

Rule C is the same as calculation rule B but for new items. If you

save a document again but the system can confirm more for

customer, the more favorable situation will be saved as t

commitment. As in rule B, the commitment date will be rec

if changes are made to the material, quantity, requested

date, or delivery time.
