delivery schedule

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A delivery schedule is a framework agreement within which the customer and supplier define in which period which products are to be delivered in which quantities. The division of these deliveries is called delivery schedules or fine division.

In this context, a company differentiates between a procurement delivery schedule and a sales delivery schedule: A procurement delivery schedule is concluded between the company and its suppliers, while a sales delivery schedule represents a corresponding framework agreement between the company and its customers.

In the context of the automation of business relationships between companies by means of EDI , a delivery schedule is understood to be an electronic message that contains a specific delivery schedule over a certain period of time and thus forms a forecast of delivery schedules . In the UN / EDIFACT standard , this is, for example, the Delivery Schedule Message (UN / EDIFACT D97A Message DELFOR).
