Delivery Date in SO vs Outbound delivery

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a case where the delivery date calculated in Sales order and Outbound Delivery are different. In our case all the dates of the Outbound delivery is updated by APO.

Route has a Transit time of 6 days and as per route Calendar 1st Nov is holiday.

In sales order, MAD is 28th Oct 2013, Loading date and GI date  is 29th Oct 2013 and Delivery date is 06th November 2013.

In Out.Delivery, MAD is 28th Oct 2013, Loading and Planned GI is 29th Oct (Actual GI is 28th Oct) and delivery date is 07th November 2013.

The dates calculated in Outbound delivery is correct as Loading date + 6 days of transit +3 days Leave results in delivery date to be 07th November.

Why Does Sales order calculate Delivery date as 06th November? What are the possible reasons for it? Maintaining a calendar at Stages of a route has any Impact on this calculation?

Hi Friend,

  Kindly check the Lead time in Sales Order Document and also check the Material Master data for the same.

Hope this will help you.

Hi,

I feel, system is dong in correct way.

MAD -28/10/2013

Loading date and GI date -29/10/2013

System is calculating delivery date as of 7/11/2013 after consideration transit time 6 days from 30th day to 6th it means from 30,31,1,4,5 and 6 ( 2 and 3 are holidays ).So,based on this,system is giving you delivery date as 7/11/2013.

Kindly ,let me know if you have any doubts on this.

Thanks,

Hi Narendra,

My question is why SO is calculating the Delivery date as 06th October.

Dear

Whenever Route has been added in delivery(Outbound)--then system will take the time mentioned in Route also---IMG>>SD>>basic functions>>Routes>>>Define Routes>>>Define Routes and Stages(0VTC)---in this if we maintain transit Duration(in days),

Travel Duration(in Hours/Mins),

Transportation lead time(in Days) and

Transportation Lead time in Hours/Minutes--can also be added in finalizing the delivery date...

(This time in days will be added  further to your MAD+Pick date+Pack date+Loading date also your shipping time at your shipping point configurations)

Hope this helps

Hi,

If I remember correctly ,you would have created sales order on 2013/11/06.On this date 11/06 ,you dont have material available quantity .So,in this case ,the system would have generated new delivery date with confirmed quantity on 201311/07 in sales order ( check under schedule line tab at item level of sales order ).In sales order ,2013/11/06 is a requested delivery date and in outbound delivery ,the delivery date is nothing but the customer should receive his goods on this date.

Thanks,

Naren
