For calculating ESD and EDD of Sales Order, OMS should consider receiving calendar too

we propose the following enhancement:​

- For calculating ESD and EDD, OOB OMS should take in consideration both the Ship Node and Receiving Node calendars for Sales Orders too​

How will this idea be used?

ESD and EDD are essential for REWE to ensure that items are delivered to stores on time. Since stores may accept deliveries from the warehouse at different time slots depending on the item classification, and may not operate every day of the week, these parameters are crucial for accurate delivery planning and execution.​

For calculating the ESD and EDD for a Sales Order, the Order Management System (OMS) should consider calendars configured at both the Ship Node and Receiving Node levels. And also, REWE needs multiple receiving calendars by Item classification, so each item classification can have its own Calendar. ​
