Specifies the number of days required to ship a part quantity from your manufacturing center to this customer's location. The Epicor applications uses the date interval as a buffer to calculate Ship By Dates when you use the

Need By date type (as specified in the Date Type field).

The manner in which it uses the specified delivery days factor for the delivery date calculation is dependent on the setting of the Consider Working Days in the Delivery Dates Calculation check box for the associated company in the Company Maintenance > Modules > Sales > Demand sheet.

• If the Consider Working Days in the Delivery Dates Calculation check box has been selected, this factor represents actual working days. To calculate a Ship By date, the Epicor application subtracts this factor from the Need By date designated in a demand schedule received from the ship to customer trading partner, taking into consideration any dates that are designated as non-working days in the associated site calendar.

Note For this scenario, the Epicor application performs the following calculations:

• The Delivery Days field is set to 5 for this ship to customer trading partner.

• When a demand schedule is received from this ship to customer trading partner with a Need By date of 11/17/11 (a Thursday), the Epicor application subtracts five actual working days to calculate a Ship By date of 11/10/11 (a Thursday) when generating shipping schedules (demand entries) for this ship to customer trading partner.

• It calculates this Ship By date because Saturday 11/12 and Sunday 11/13 are both designated as non-working days in the site calendar.

• If the Consider Working Days in the Delivery Dates Calculation check box has been cleared, this factor represents delivery days. To calculate a Ship By date, the Epicor application subtracts this factor from the Need By date designated in a demand schedule received from the ship to customer trading partner, and then determines if the calculated Ship By date is a working day.

Note For this scenario, the Epicor application performs the following calculations:

• The associated site calendar is configured for a standard Monday through Friday work schedule. • The Delivery Days field is set to 5 for this ship to customer trading partner.

• When a demand schedule is received from this ship to customer trading partner with a Need By date of 11/17/11 (a Thursday), the Epicor application subtracts five delivery days to calculate a Ship By date of 11/12/11 (a Saturday). However, since Saturday is a non-working day in the site calendar, it sets the final Ship By Date to 11/11/2011 (a Friday).

Tip If this ship to customer trading partner also uses periodicity rules, and you specify a periodicity interval in the Periodicity field, the Ship By date is further adjusted to match the shipping frequency set up within the periodicity rule selected in the Periodicity field. For example, if an Nth Day of the Month periodicity rule has been specified in the Periodicity field, and the periodicity rule (as defined in Customer Periodicity Maintenance) has the 25th as the day of the month, a Ship By date of July 25 would be calculated when generating shipping schedules.

Logic/Algorithms

Ship By Date = Need By Date - Delivery Days (or Actual Working Days), adjusted by any applicable Periodicity rules specified for the customer trading partner.

Example

If the Date Type field is set to Need By, this trading partner needs parts on an order release delivered to them by August 1 and you have specified 5 in the Delivery Date field, the Epicor application subtracts five days from the August 1 Need By date to calculate a Ship By date of July 27 when generating shipping schedules (demand entries) from inbound EDI transactions received from this customer trading partner.

Tip If this customer trading partner also uses periodicity rules, and you specify a periodicity interval in the

Periodicity field, the Ship By date is further adjusted to match the shipping frequency set up within the periodicity rule selected in the Periodicity field. For example, if an Nth Day of the Month periodicity rule has been specified in the Periodicity field, and the periodicity rule (as defined in Customer Periodicity Maintenance) has the 25th as the day of the month, a Ship By date of July 25 would be calculated when generating shipping schedules.
