hi all,
Our business has a requirement based on the legacy system, today, all sales orders received by 23.00 PM are shipped the next day and all orders received by 10AM are shipped the same day, They also use the rush order business process whereby these special orders are shipped the same day irrespective of what time of the day the order is received, of course this business requirements are based on material stock availability, It is possible to create standard order and if the customer needs the delivery ASAP, They can change the order to a fast delivery order, again depending on material availability, in the case of orders received by 10 AM and shipped the same day, how can SAP handle this requirement? it means material availability, transportation planning, loading, goods issue date must be the same day, what type of configuration can be used to achieve this business process, i have checked various threads regarding this issue but not seen any clear clues or ideas
The customers are also using a logistics calendar as part of the ATP process, It is a Z table used for scheduling deliveries based on postal codes, what week day is the shipping date and the lead times assigned to the postal codes, so it seems they are currently by passing the tradition route determination process, The Z table ensures that the actual delivery date in the sales order is accurate, The Z table is updated regularly from data provided by the Logistics transport provider
This is another requirement we have to implement in SAP, any ideas, tips and suggestions will be gladly welcomed
Thanks
