   Option	Description
   Set Name	See all lines that are in the same set.
   Set Type	See if the set is a shipment set or an arrival set.

Note

• A shipment set is a set of order lines that you group together so they all ship at the same time.

• An arrival set is a set of order lines that you group together so they all arrive at the same destination on the same date. Fulfillment can ship the fulfillment lines from different warehouses on different days, but they arrive together at the destination at the same time regardless of the shipping method or ship-from location.

Assume you order the AS54888 Computer on fulfillment line 1, and it includes a mouse on line 2 and a keyboard on line 3. You ship each line from different warehouses on different dates. You can use an arrival set to make sure the computer, mouse and keyboard all arrive on the same date.

Note

• Promising independently determines the best ship from location and shipping method for each line in the set. If you check availability for a line in a set, then Promising checks availability for all lines in the set. If a line is delayed, then Promising sets the scheduled date of all lines in the set to the latest arrival date from the line that has the longest delay.
• All lines in the set must have the same values for these attributes:
  • Customer
  • Customer Site
  • Ship From Organization
  • Ship To Location
  • Shipping Method
  • Shipment Date
  • Arrival Date
• If you add a new line to a set, then you must make sure the attribute values on the new line match the values of the other lines in the set.
• If you override the schedule for an arrival set and manually provide the:
  • Scheduled shipment date. Promising calculates the scheduled arrival date for you.
  • Scheduled arrival date. Promising calculates the scheduled shipment date for you.
• You can manage lines in a shipment set in Order Management, and Promising will promise them in a shipment set. For details about how to manage shipment sets in Order Management, see Guidelines for Managing Shipment Sets and Ship Order Lines in Shipment Sets.
