Dear ,

In Material Availability Date for External Item is calculated based on the Plnned delievery Time and GR processimng Time in Material amster .

Material Availability Date =PR Creation Date +Releasing of PR Time +Planned Delievery Time +GR processing Time

Please try one example in sandbox and revert

dear friend, i am not sure what you're after...just some tips helpful for you

Example of Forward Scheduling for External Procurement:

Material shortage date plus processing time for purchasing plan plus planned delivery time = delivery date

01.08. (Friday) plus 1 workday + 10 calendar days = 14.08. (Thursday)

Delivery date plus goods receipt processing time = availability date

14.08. (Thursday) plus 2 workdays = 18.08. (Monday)

Example of Backward Scheduling for In-House Production:

Requirements data minus goods receipt processing time = order finish date

25.6. (Friday) minus 2 workdays = 23.6. (Wednesday)

Order finish date minus in-house production time = order start date

23.6. (Wednesday) minus 6 workdays = 15.6. (Tuesday)

Order start date minus opening period = order opening date

15.6. (Tuesday) minus 6 workdays = 7.6. (Monday)
