Hi,

Planned GI Date : It is the date on which the goods must be physically dispatched from the shipping so that it can reach customer on the Requested Delivery Date (RDD) or on-time. It can be calculated as follows :

Planned GI Date = RDD - (pick/pack time + loading time + transit time)

Actual GI Date : Actual date on which physical goods movement happens from shipping point. Goods issue document to account for the outgoing inventory is normally created on Actual GI Date.

Hope it adds info..

Thanks

Hi,

Apart from it i feel plan GI Date is what system propose after scheduling and Actual date is what we enter while doing the GI.

Hopw this will help.

Actual Goods Issue date on which physically the material leaves the premises of the company, where as planned dat is proposed date. It may be different due to availablity of material.
