The shipment date is initialized to the order date or the current date (if the order date is earlier than the current date). This date is controlled with respect the working days at the shipment site and with respect to the unavailability calendar for this site. If the calculated shipment date corresponds to a non-working day at the site, the system moves the shipment date (earlier) to the first working day. If the date corresponds to an unavailable day at the site, a blocking control is used to make you enter a new shipment date. This shipment date will be used by default on the order lines when the products are deliverable products.
A warning message can also be returned when the entered shipment date is greater than the requested delivery date.
Modifying the shipment date never updates the requested delivery date.
