-
Select an item shipment.
-
In the grid, scroll to the Expediting Dates section.
-
Click Forecasted Delivery Date
and select the forecasted delivery date for the item shipment.
The forecasted delivery date is used as the base for the automatic calculation of
the other forecast dates.
-
Click Prom Contract
and select the date on which the supplier has promised to deliver the item.
You can only update this date if project default ZP_EXPDATE is set to N.
-
Click PO Actual
and select the date on which the item has actually been delivered.
-
Click Prom Inspect
and select the date on which the supplier has promised that the item can be inspected.
-
Click Final Inspect
and select the date on which the item will be finally inspected for releasing the
corresponding certificate.
-
Click Ready Predicted
and select the date on which the item is predicted to be ready for shipment.
-
Click Ready Actual
and select the date on which the item was actually ready to be shipped.
-
Click Prom Ship
and select the first date the supplier promised to ship that item.
You can only update this date if project default ZP_EXPDATE is set to N.
-
Click Curr/Rev Prom Ship
and select the current promised date of the supplier to ship that item.
As long as this date is not changed by the expediter, it has the same value as the
Prom Ship date. Modifying this date leads to a re-calculation of the Predicted on
Site date if project default ZP_EXPDATE is set to Y and basic expediting is used (ZP_NEW_EXP
is set to N). When you set this date on a detail tag, the latest date of all detail
tags is copied over to the master tag. For example, if the current promised ship dates
of the detail tags are 22-MAR-2012, 04-JUN-2012, and 02-AUG-2012, 02-AUG-2012 is copied
to the master tag. This copy operation can result in the re-assignment of the master
tag to a different shipment group.
-
Click Pred Ship
and select the date the item is predicted to be shipped.
Modifying this field leads to a re-calculation of the predicted on site date if project
default ZP_EXPDATE is set to Y and basic expediting is used (ZP_NEW_EXP is set to
N).
-
Click Actual Ship
and select the actual date the supplier shipped that item.
Modifying this field leads to a re-calculation of the predicted on site date if project
default ZP_EXPDATE is set to Y and basic expediting is used (ZP_NEW_EXP is set to
N).
-
Click Pred Traffic Arrival
and select the date for which the traffic arrival of the material is predicted.
This date can either be set manually or filled automatically if project default ZP_POP_ETA
is set to POP_MOC. If ZP_POP_ETA is set to POP_MOC, the ETA date of the means of conveyance
on which the item shipment can be found is copied into this cell.
-
Click Actual Traffic Arrival
and select the date on which the traffic arrival of the material actually took place.
This date can either be set manually or filled automatically if project default ZP_POP_ETA
is set to POP_MOC. If the project default is set to POP_MOC, the ATA date of the means
of conveyance on which the item shipment can be found is copied over into this cell.
-
Click Prom On Site
and select the date for which the item is promised to arrive on site.
-
Click Pred On Site
and select the date predicted (estimated) for the arrival on site.
If you are using extended expediting, this date is kept in synchronization with the
forecasted date of the destination of the routing method that is defined as 'Arrival
On Site' type. If project default ZP_EXPDATE is set to Y, this date is filled with
the promised ship date plus the sum of transit days of the routing method when an
item shipment is created. Furthermore, in case basic expediting is used (ZP_NEW_EXP
is set to N), Predicted on Site date is recalculated automatically if one of the following
values is updated:
-
Curr/Rev Prom Ship
-
Pred Ship
-
Actual Ship
-
Routing Method
-
Carrier Name
If a carrier name has been provided, the predicted on site date is calculated as the ATA date of the carrier (or ETA date, if the ATA date is not available) plus the sum of transit days of those entries within the schedule of the routing method located between the entries with date types 'Traffic Arrival' (which is included) and 'Arrival On Site' (which is excluded). If the ETA date of the carrier is empty, too, or if the routing method schedule does not contain an entry of date type 'Traffic Arrival,' the carrier is ignored, and the software looks for the actual ship date/predicted ship date/revised promised ship date/promised ship date (in this order, if the respective date looked for is empty) and adds the (total) sum of transit days of the routing method for calculating the predicted on site date. This latter variant also applies in cases where no carrier name has been provided.
If project default ZP_EXPDATE is set to N, this date remains empty when an item shipment is created and is not automatically recalculated if one of the fields named above is modified.
