Setting a vendor to a certain day

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 40

I have a certain Vendor that only delivers on a certain day of the week, every week. I want to be able to set the Requisition Worksheet to only order from this Vendor for Fridays. I found a workaround by going into the calendar and setting it up that this Vendor only works on a Friday, the only problem with that , is the parts that are assigned to Vendor all have lead times. so instead of a part taking 20 days to deliver, the system thinks that this Vendor only works one day a week, so the lead time for a part goes from 20 days to 20 weeks and If I was to order through requisition's, I will fill the stores!!

Is their a way to set a Vendor to Purchase and deliver on a single day without effecting the lead time?

    There is not a standard feature to do as you desire.

    You could try playing with a shipping agent for just that vendor that has 7D shipping time.

    I never tried this but I know you can use the following unit in Lead Time. For WD you can select the Weekday (Monday is weekday 1 and Sunday is weekday 7.) which for example WD3 means weekday number 3. Maybe try this method and put WD5 which is weekday number 5 and then see if it works. 

     D | WD | W | M | Q | Y (D=day, WD=weekday, W=week, M=month, Q=quarter, Y=year)
