Sales Order: Delivery
Scheduling
When an order is created the you must enter a
requested delivery date for the order or each line item.
The system will then determine a delivery timeline, this

will be used when determining our material availability,
or ATP (Availability to Promise) date.
The system will determine this date using forward and

backward scheduling rules you have defined.
Sales Order: Shipping & Route
Determination
During the creation of the sales order the system must determine the
shipping point from which the material will be shipped and the route the
material will take to get from your warehouse to your customers location.
A shipping point is determined for each line item within the order.
The route determination will is used to define the transit time of the
material that we used in scheduling.

documents on the pricing screens at both the header
and the line item level.

discounts, surcharges, calculate taxes and freight.

pricing at both the header and line item level within
the sales order by entering a condition type and
amount.
Taxes and freight can be set-up so we cant manually enter.

Sales Order: Credit Check

rep about the customers credit situation that arises, if
necessary the system can be configured to block orders and
