confirmed delivery date per SKU/orderline in a PO
I'm looking for how to find the option to have a confirmed delivery date per SKU/orderline in a PO ? I see comments from a year back also asking for this “ Purchases often arrived in staggered deliveries and it would be extremely helpful to be able to have an overall required by date for a PO and an expected delivery date per SKU in the PO.”
I have worked with several systems and with purchasing and the issue is that in purchasing there is never a guarantee that you can place and order and have all the products confirmed for delivery at the same date.
To manage this it is necessary to be able to have a confirmed delivery date per product/SKU listed, this is also needed for when to run reports to check received PO’s as OTIF (On Time And in Full), as well as a regular performance report on PO’s delivered on-time.
We would also use this for our production/assembly planning, as we can see when the different SKU/products are expected to be delivered.
So if you can only place PO and have only the complete PO confirmed with a delivery date, then this is a big problem (flaw) in your system.

Yep this is a massive oversight and issue.
Yes please I agree this would be very helpful.
We find that we’re regularly having to split PO’s into multiple orders achieve the functionality. This is clunky and slow.
Agree that this is needed
