Hi,
You can use a calendar to define valid shipping days and hours for a shipper, receiver, and carrier. Using these calendars is optional.
The shipping and receiving calendars are used to designate when your customers, customer sites, suppliers, supplier sites, and internal organizations can ship and receive.
Note: The ship confirm process uses these calendars to warn you of invalid shipping days and hours. The calendars do not affect scheduling performed by Oracle Advanced Planning and Scheduling.
For example, if you are shipping a delivery on Tuesday to arrive at your customer's site on Wednesday, ship confirm checks the calendars to confirm the following:
Your warehouse can ship on Tuesday
Your customer can receive goods on Wednesday
Your carrier is able to pick up and drop off the deliveries on those days
Note: If the transportation calendars are not defined, every day and time is assumed to be valid for shipping and receiving.
Regards,
B.T.S.Ananth
