| Re: Role of Early/Late Pickup Dates and the Early/Late Delivery Dates in Order Base
Hi,
THe dates you can give (they are optional) will be used in conjunction with the planning parameter as mentioned by Alejandro AND the date emphasis as set in the order release/order base.
If set to "BOTH" (default) OTM will always respect the dates given. There are a lot of combinations you can think of here:
- Only early and late delivery date: Order will be planned to respect the delivery dates and the pickup date will be adjusted likewise.
- Early pickup date and late delivery date is populated: The shipment built will leave at the early pickup date.
etc, etc.
If you have multiple rates and transit times in OTM, OTM will only select the cheapest rate which still can respect the dates to deliver it on time.
Hope this helps a bit.
Best regards,
Bob |
