Siddharth or others?
I am actually still confused...my logic thinking is base on the above scenario (I am talking about vendor delivery the goods to your dock, and then, you deliver the goods to your customer) is something like this.
Let say a sales order with first date (customer request date) is 31st March 2015, and the following are my system date setup value for each of the date objects:
<<SD>>
* Transit time = 2 days
* Loading ime = 1 days
* Pick/Pack processing = 1 day
<<MM>>
* PO processing = 1 day
* Vendor Lead time = 5 days
* GR processing = 1 day
I would assume SAP, base on the above value, to first find out the material availablity date by first finding out when the vendor can deliver)
Hence, firstly, a vendor source is found in SAP system logic search, and the receipt date (material availability date) is calculated
Material Available Time = GR Processing Time (1D) - Vendor Lead Time (5D) - PO processing Time (1D)
Secondly, one the goods availablity is known from MM, how does SD process date calculation from here?
Customer Request Date = Transit Time (2D) - Loading Time (1D) - Pick/Pack Time (1D)
Another question is if the customer is hardheaded and prefer to stick to their request date, in which case, how is the above MM and SD date calculation take place.
How does the above date fall into one piece from both side on above two scenarios ?
Appreciated.
