If you use Order Type, the Shipment Date Code Handling parameter of the Order Type manages the setting of this field. Otherwise it will be managed by the Shipment Date Code Handling in the Sales & Receivables Setup.
If TRIMIT Collection Management has been deactivated by setting the Shipment Date Code Handling to None, a possible Shipment Date Code at the Master will be transferred to this field and used as a Dimension Value, unless the Skip Transfer Collection and Shipment Date Code from Master field in the Sales & Receivables Setup has a check mark.
If this field is filled in, the Shipment Date related to this
Shipment Date Code will be copied to the Shipment Date field of the Sales Line.
When the value of the Shipment Date Code Handling is either Show
All Items related to the Collection and Find Next Shipment Date or Show Only
Items Related to the Current Collection and Collection Shipment Date Code, the
Shipment Date for the Sales Line will be found in the
Collection Shipment Date table.
When the value of the Shipment Date Code Handling is Show Only Items
Related to the Current Shipment Date Code, the Shipment Date for the Sales Line will be found in the
Shipment Date Code table.
If the Shipment Date Code of the Sales Line has been set
by the Shipment Date Code field in
an Order Type, you will not be allowed to change it manually.
In other cases you can manually enter one of the codes of the predefined Collection Shipment Dates or Shipment Date Codes into this field, even if it has already been
filled in automatically, and the Shipment Date of the Sales Line will be updated accordingly by
the program.
Look up to see the Shipment Date Codes valid for the current Sales Line.
