Documentation

Definition

Key that determines the day on which the material is planned and ordered. The planning cycle is a planning calendar that is defined in Customizing for MRP.

Use

In addition to the planning cycle, you can enter a delivery cycle that is defined in the planning calendar field.

Dependencies

Example

It makes sense to enter a delivery cycle for the following situation:

You carry out the planning run and place orders every Monday and Tuesday. Materials that are ordered on Monday are delivered on Wednesday, while materials that are ordered on Tuesday are not delivered until Friday.

The system interprets an additionally specified planned delivery time as the minimum delivery time, which means that at least this number of days pass between the planning run or the order and delivery.
