Key that controls how the commitment quantities should be calculated per sales document type.

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:

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 the customer, the more favorable situation will be saved as the commitment. As in rule B, the commitment date will be recalculated if changes are made to the material, quantity, requested delivery date, or delivery time.

Hope this will help.

THIS IS THE F1 HELP. THAT ACTUALLY MEANS THAT THE CONFIRMED DELIVERY DATE TO THE SHIP TO PARTY, CANNOT BE CHANGED AND HENCE QUICKER DELIVERY OR LATER DELIVERY IS NOT POSSIBLE (IN THE SYSTEM) IF THERE IS ANY CHANGE IN STOCK OF THAT MATERIAL. GENERALLY THIS DATE IS NOT CLICKED IF THE DELIVERY DATES CAN BE CHANGED OR THE FUNCTIONALITY OF RESCHEDULING IS IN PRACTICE IN THE PROJECT.

Rwd if it helps.
