Enter In Transit Days by Location

Access

Use this routine to enter override in-transit days for a vendor or vendor ship-from for specific destination warehouse locations when using EDI vendors. After you establish in-transit days for a specific receiving location, the system uses the "by location" in-transit days when a purchase order for that vendor/vendor ship-from and destination location is acknowledged. The in-transit days are added to the Shipping Date on the acknowledgement to determine the expected delivery date of the merchandise. To enable in-transit days for Acknowledge a Purchase Order, the DELIVERY DATE/DIRECT SHIP - Calculate in Acknowledge a Purchase Order setting in Purchasing Control Settings is checked.

For more detail on the hierarchy the system follows, refer to the In Transit Days Hierarchy topic.

The read-only version of this screen appears when accessed through a view-only version of the routine, such as View Vendor Settings. In this version, you may only view the currently available selection(s).

This is the number of days to be added to the Shipping Date in purchase order acknowledgements to determine the Delivery Date for purchase orders being shipped from this vendor/vendor ship-from to this location.
