Material Availability Date Calculation

Former Member

Hi,

I have a business scenario where a sales order creation should trigger the automatic generation of a delivery, (via customising of the order type). The default setting is to create the delivery if the order quantity can be confirmed for the same date. I am aware that schedule lines are calculated usiong forward scheduling or backward depending on the material availability calculated. There is no pick/pack, loading time etc, so technically the material availability date should be calculated for the same date as the order is created. However I have experienced instances where the material availability date is calculated for one day after the order is created (creation date + 1) and therefore the delivery is not created. This also happens in a situation where there is sufficient stock available. There is no route determination, pick pack time, transit time or any other requirement associated with this delivery scheduling?

Hi,

I think u did config in Sales Doc Type as "Immediate Delivery"=X

Ur problem is sometimes the confirmation is happening on current day +1 day

One reason might be Factory calendar. If its holiday then it confirms on next working day.

hope this helps.
