Order promising and scheduling

You can use the order promising and scheduling functions.

Promising for products being shipped
You can use the capabilities for promising.
Promising service requests
Various system components are involved in making a successful customer promise for service items such as delivery services or provided services.
Complex sequencing of order lines
Controls are provided so that you can sequence various product deliveries and associated services. You may want to complete certain pre-delivery services before a product is delivered and then perform some post-delivery services ensuring that these are scheduled only after the product has been delivered.
Item-based allocation
Item-based allocation (IBA) is a process that reallocates the uncommitted and committed demands for items of existing orders to more suitable supplies based on user configuration and supply and demand changes in the system.
Rescheduling
Rescheduling of an order is allowed when the attributes that are important for scheduling are modified.
