Opportunistic Crossdock Example

In this example we will show how Opportunistic Crossdocking happens for a PO as Supply and Sales Order as Demand. We will define an item and assign it to organization W1. Then we will create a PO for the item for qty 10. Then we create a Sales Order for the item for qty10. Now we do PO receipt for quantity of 10. When you try to do put away system will prompt you that crossdocking opportunity exists. Execute cross docking.

Opportunistic Crossdock – Forward scheduling
As per the above setup
Order Processing Time = 1 Hr
Buffer Time = 1 Hr
Crossdock Window = 2 Hrs

Let the Current Time be 11:00 and Supply arrives at 11:00
Earliest departure time for crossdocking to a demand = Current Time + (Order Processing Time + Buffer Time) = 11:00 + (1+1) = 13:00
Latest departure time for cross docking to a demand = Earliest departure time for crossdocking to a demand + Crossdock Window = 13:00 + 2 = 15:00

1. Complete the required setups.
2. Create a SO and book it, the line status changes to awaiting shipping.
3. Create a PO with the same item number.
4. Receive the PO.
As the cross dock plan, the newly received PO material’ll be reserved against the SO.
