Delivery Options

If the goods ordered by the customer are only partly available on the requested date, the product availability check can create different options for confirming the requirement:

• One-time delivery on the requested delivery date

  The product availability check determines how much required quantity can be delivered on the requested material availability date. All possible deliveries with a later delivery date are ignored.

• Complete delivery

  The product availability check determines the earliest date on which the entire requirement can be delivered in one single delivery.

• Delivery proposal

  The product availability check determines multiple partial deliveries until the requested quantity is reached.
