The requested delivery date corresponds to the date requested by the customer. It is initialized by the shipment date (itself initialized by the order date) increased by the delivery lead time associated with the delivery address. This date is recovered by default on the order lines when products are deliverable products. If this date is modified, it will be used to recalculate the shipment date. If the order contains lines, a message suggests that you update the requested delivery date and the maximum delivery date (if the entered date is greater) and the new shipment date on the order lines.
A control is applied to this date based on the ship-to customer's working days and their unavailability calendar. If the requested delivery date corresponds to a non-working day for the customer, the date will be automatically moved to a date that is later than the initial date. If the requested delivery date corresponds to a day that falls into the unavailability calendar of the customer, then a warning message is displayed suggesting that you modify the date or continue.
Inter-company specificities: In the case of an inter-company or inter-site order generated from a purchase order, the requested delivery date will be initialized to the earliest date in the planned receipt dates entered on the purchase order lines.
