JIT delivery schedule

An instrument used by a customer to inform a vendor which quantities of a material represented by an item of a scheduling agreement must be delivered at which time.

The JIT delivery schedule provides precise information for the vendor relating to the near future. Exact delivery dates (calendar days) or times can be specified.

Note:

The terminology used in the Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO) is slightly different to that used in the standard system:

The "operative delivery schedule" (APO) corresponds to the "JIT schedule" (standard), and the "forecast/planning schedule" (APO) corresponds to the "forecast delivery schedule" (standard).

JIT delivery schedule horizon

A time interval indicating which schedule lines are to be taken as the basis for aggregation when JIT delivery schedules are generated against a scheduling agreement.

The JIT delivery schedule horizon (JIT schedule horizon) is determined in accordance with the aggregation information in the release creation profile.

Example

For a scheduling agreement that is valid for two years, a release creation profile specifies that JIT schedules are to be generated and transmitted to the vendor daily in the first month starting from the current date. The remaining validity period of the scheduling agreement lies beyond the JIT delivery schedule horizon. Schedule may exist, but there is no provision for the generation of JIT schedules in this period.
