Sales Order Planning

This functionality helps in easy order management and gives complete control of your orders. Full clarity on order status, dispatch status, procurement status. The SO planning has 3 stages-

  • Order Fulfillment Status. 
  • SO Planned Delivery Date.
  • Dispatch Scheduling.

Order Fulfillment Status

Order fulfillment status gives a complete picture of all sales orders and their dispatch status and expected fulfillment date of every order.

Dispatch status shows Total Order Qty, Dispatched Qty, Packed Qty, Pending Order Qty with the progress bar

The expected fulfillment date is generated by the fulfillment date given against PO/MO. The system by default picks the last date given by PO/MO. For eg – if the PO fulfillment date is 1st Jan 2021 and MO fulfillment date is 5th Jan 2021, then the system will pick 5th Jan 2021 as the expected fulfillment date. 

To View the order, go to Sales Order Planning > Order fulfillment Status > Choose Order

Order status is defined in two parts- 

  • Dispatch Status – shows Total Order Qty, Dispatched Qty, Packed Qty, Pending Dispatch Qty of every item in particular order with progress bar info. To view Dispatch Status of order > Click on Dispatch Status button. Grid showing all dispatch information will show up.
