For each shipment schedule you can change the request date, ship-to location, ship-to contact, shipment priority, and freight carrier. If you split an order line for a model with options into shipment schedules, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping duplicates the exact configuration to each shipment schedule. You can change the options for that shipment schedule until the individual shipment schedule has been pick released. For example, your customer has a blanket order to ship 100 configurations each month for the next six months. After three months you no longer support one of the options they chose, and they still have three months' worth of shipments outstanding. You can update the remaining three shipment schedules, removing the obsolete option.
If you schedule shipments for multiple request dates, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping automatically manages the release of the shipment schedules. Oracle Order Entry/Shipping only releases the shipment schedule lines which match your pick release criteria. For example, if two shipment schedule lines exist with request dates of 31-MAR-94 and 31-OCT-94 and you release orders with request dates through 31-MAR-94, Oracle Order Entry/Shipping automatically checks the dates and releases only the first shipment schedule line.
