Most vendors operate with a "delivery date" being the date where the items are shipped from their site or most often based on Delivery terms. So depending on the Delivery terms (Incoterms)  the concept of delivery date changes. EXW often means a long lead time from shipment to delivery as opposed to DDP where shipment = delivery. There is a lot of misunderstanding with these concepts and that often leads to late deliveries... 

This means we need a similar feature on shipment and delivery as on the purchase order. Most vendors assume the delivery date is their shipment dates. It is a tough sell to change this, so a feature supporting this is sorely required and something we always do for our customers.

We are pleased to announce that this capability is now available in the product. Please review the documentation  here: Calculate requested ship dates for purchase orders - Supply Chain Management | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn

    The date dependency to delivery terms has to be taken into consideration when discussing departure dates and/or delivery dates.

     

     

  • Agreed--Many global supply chains claim ownership overseas and need more robust in-transit tracking functionality than the in-transit warehouse approach can provide. Finance and Ops have conflicting needs--Finance wants to receive the goods at time of ownership change (e.g., overseas at the origin port) but Ops teams are hesitant to receive the PO in full without some sort of quality control at the destination warehouse. Other desired features include the ability to split in-transit PO lines sea/air (e.g., part of a PO needs to be expedited) and consolidate PO's into shipping containers (e.g., based on freight forwarder shipping recommendations).

    Deeper functionality for the ownership hand-off points would be a nice gain.

  • Wichtig!

     

  • Purchase orders needs to have; Requested ship date Requested receipt date Confirmed ship date Confirmed receipt date This is included as a part of my own idea; https://experience.dynamics.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=fa2c1fac-2029-e911-9462-0003ff68bbc3
  • More and more requested by our customers!

  • Hi i have one question. As requested here days are calculated on "delivery terms". Could it be that what has been made in the new version is based on the "delivery mode"?
