It should be possible to maintain a delivery calendar for each delivery site/warehouse and receiving site/warehouse.

In practice, warehouses are supplied according to a defined delivery calendar. Currently, the transport days are taken into account, but not the fact that no delivery is possible on certain days.


The planned transfer orders should take this date + the resulting transport days into account.When it comes to transport days, it should be taken into account that these depend on working days. For example, trucks are not allowed to drive on Saturday and Sunday.


Example:


Warehouse A supplies warehouse B via transfer orders. However, warehouse A does not deliver every day, but only on Tuesday (ship date) and Thursday (ship date). It takes 3 working days for the delivery to arrive at the site/warehouse..


Delivery from Warehouse A on Tuesday with delivery to location B on Friday.

Delivery from Warehouse A on Thursday with delivery to location B on Tuesday.


It would be ideal if the transport days were given a default mode of delivery for each shipping and receiving warehouse and this calendar (for each mode of delivery) was taken into account accordingly. In other words, the calculations would always be based on the possible shipping dates. This could actually be controlled in the same way as in the sales orders using "Closed for Pickup" options.
