Split Order Lines Based on Date
The first fulfillment of the order is released if the available units are equal to or more than the value of the minimum quantity of units set in the Manage Backlog Planning Rules task in Backlog Management work area.
The next fulfillment occurs when the remaining supply is available. If the minimum split quantity is not defined in the backlog planning rule, the first fulfillment of the order occurs on the requested date with the available quantity and the next fulfillment occurs when the remaining supply is available.
Let’s take an example where the requested quantity is 100 units and the requested date is January 7th,2030.
Here is how the available supply looks like:
Item | Organization | Quantity | Supply Availability Date |
---|---|---|---|
Item1 | M1 | 60 | 1/07/2030 |
Item1 | M1 | 40 | 1/31/2030 |
If the splitting is not enabled, the entire order is fulfilled directly on the 31st January 2030.
If the splitting is enabled, the first fulfilment is planned on 7th January and the second is planned on 31st January
- If the latest acceptable date has been specified for an order line then the order lines are split only when full supply for fulfilling the order line is available by the latest acceptable date.
- Item under allocation can be split only based on date and not by organization.
