Delivery Routes - SIUPDR

Define the routes for each Year code defined in the SI Year Definition (SIUPYR) page. Delivery routes are only used by the system if Use Delivery Route is selected on the SI General Information (SIUPGN) page.

Route Definition

Year: Select from the drop-down list of active Year codes, as defined on the SI Year Definitions page.

Route: Each defined route is designated by a code of 1 to 4 alphanumeric characters. When delivery routing is used, these route codes will be assigned to each order placed using the SI Order Entry (SIOEUB) page. This will allow for easy selection of orders when printing pick tickets and filling orders.

Description: Up to 30 characters may be used to describe the route.

Active: When the box is checked, the route is active and may be used during order entry. When the box is unchecked, the route cannot be used. This allows the warehouse staff to set up routes without making them available to the users placing orders.

Pick Date: Enter the date the route is picked from the warehouse and prepared for delivery. For example, if the pick date is 12/11/2012, the users will be able to order for this route through the end of 12/10/2012. If the user tries to place an order on 12/11/2012, then they will be assigned the next delivery date for this route.

Deliver Date: Enter the date the route is to be delivered. When an order is entered and a route is determined, the delivery date will be placed in the Required Date field of the SI Create/Update Orders (SIOEUB) page.
