Gestione parametrica per gestire la modalità di cambio delle date sulle righe ordine di acquisto

Hi.  I found the following information -

In IFS Applications 10, this date calculation behavior is governed by Planned Delivery Date Anchoring in conjunction with the Supply Chain Matrix / Lead Time Calculation logic.

1. Key Mechanism Summary

When the Mode of Delivery (or Ship Via code) is modified on a Purchase Order (PO) line, IFS Applications 10 recalculates the supply chain timeline using the Planned Delivery Date as the fixed anchor point.

The mechanism splits the recalculation into two directions:

• Forward Recalculation (Delivery → Receipt): Pushes the Planned Receipt Date forward based on internal processing lead times.

• Backward Recalculation (Delivery → Ship): Recalculates the Planned Ship Date backward based on the new transport lead time.

2. How the Date Recalculation Flow Works

When the Mode of Delivery is changed, IFS Apps 10 retrieves the updated lead times associated with the new delivery mode/route and evaluates the dates as follows:

$$\text{Planned Receipt Date} = \text{Planned Delivery Date} + \text{Internal Inspection / Arrival Lead Time}$$

$$\text{Planned Ship Date} = \text{Planned Delivery Date} - \text{Transport Lead Time (for new Mode of Delivery)}$$

1. Fixed Anchor (Planned Delivery Date):
   The Planned Delivery Date represents the agreed date when goods arrive at your site's receiving dock. IFS retains this date to preserve commitments with the supplier.

2. Forward Calculation for Planned Receipt Date:
   The system adds the Internal Inspection Lead Time (or Arrival Lead Time) defined for the part/site to the fixed Planned Delivery Date. If changing the mode of delivery affects arrival processing rules, or if calendar/working-day rules shift, the Planned Receipt Date moves forward to reflect when inventory will actually be available in stock.

3. Backward Calculation for Planned Ship Date:
   The system subtracts the new Transport Lead Time (linked to the new Mode of Delivery / Ship Via) from the fixed Planned Delivery Date to determine when the supplier must dispatch the shipment.

3. Where These Parameters Are Configured in Apps 10

The underlying parameters that drive this recalculation logic are set up in the following core areas:

• Supply Chain Matrix for Supplier to Site:

  • Path: Procurement → Supplier → Supply Chain Matrix → Supplier to Site

  • Configures the specific Ship Via / Mode of Delivery, Transport Lead Time, Distance, and Route.

• Supplier for Purchase Part:

  • Path: Procurement → Supplier → Supplier for Purchase Part → General / Delivery Info tab

  • Defines the default Internal Inspection Lead Time, Vendor Manufacturing Lead Time, and default Mode of Delivery.

• Site / Delivery Terms & Ship Via:

  • Path: Enterprise → Site → Site → Delivery Information

  • Defines site-specific calendars, arrival lead times, and receiving schedules.

I hope this information helps.  Thanks!  Jane

Hi Jane,

Thank you very much. Where did you source this information from? Currently, our solution does not use Planned Delivery Date Anchoring in conjunction with the Supply Chain Matrix / Lead Time Calculation logic, because when a mode of delivery is changed on a purchase order, the PLANNED_RECEIPT_DATE remains fixed while the PLANNED_DELIVERY_DATE is the one that changes.Based on the information you've given me, I would open a support case. What do you think?
