Set Up a Drop Shipment Plan

When you set up a plan for drop shipment, you can include both drop shipment sales order and standard sales orders (forecasts and supplies) from a direct shipment organization in the same plan.

To set up your plan for drop shipment:

1. From a Supply Chain Planning work area, open your supply plan or demand and supply plan.

2. From your plan, click Actions > Edit Plan Options.

3. On the Edit Plan Options page, click the Supply tab and then click Select Advanced Options.

4. On the Supply: Advanced Options page, select Include drop ship demands and supplies.

5. Optionally, you can include other direct shipment organizations.

6. Set the other plan parameters, as needed.

   For example, select Create time fence to apply time fences to drop shipment forecasts.

7. Save the plan.

8. Run the plan to include the drop shipments in the plan output.

   Note: In your drop shipment plan, search for supplies and demand in the drop shipment validation organization. Note that the customer information appears on the purchase order and the supplier information appears on the sales order.
