Re: Date Emphasis on Order Release

Would someone pls enlighten me on any setup or configuration that can resolve this issue? Thanks for your help!

Note: If I set the date emphasis to "NONE" then I have not issue to generate the shipment.
Hi Kaki,

I have noticed this problem as well. And I realised that BOTH the pickup date and delivery date must be in the PAST before the shipment can be planned with the date emphasis "PAST" (i am using 5.5 CU3)

If only one of the dates is in the past, your best bet is to use date emphasis NONE.

I have a similiar business requirement as you have in that my users are also doing post execution updates and generation of sell shipments. Hence having an agent to set the date empahsis to NONE automatically did the trick for me.

Hope this helps!

Ian
