Hello everyone,
I hope you can help me. We use the procurement commitment in order entry to determine the earliest possible delivery date. Our products are often manufactured and purchased 1:1 from a supplier. These suppliers have fixed delivery days - e.g. Monday and Wednesday every week.
The following works: We can calculate the correct delivery date for the products in the order. The orders are then released. In the next step, the buyer plans the requirements in the planning worksheet and triggers the orders.
This is where the problem begins: the due date of the purchase order is always the delivery date of the sales order. There is no way to purchase products in the order reference as quickly as possible and leave them in stock, is there? Business Central always goes as close as possible to the due date of the sales order. Due to the supplier's fixed delivery days, in some cases even ‘after’ the planned goods issue date.
Do you have any idea how we can configure this in the standard system?
I have tried it with vendor calendars, different procurement times... Without success.
Thank you!
Tim
