| Over-Shipment Tolerance % | Specifies the percentage by which the ordered quantity is allowed to be exceeded. |
There are rules to define and use over-shipment codes, such as:
- It is possible to define as many over-shipment codes as needed.
- It is also possible to have two over-shipment codes with the same tolerance. In that case, the code can be used to define the source of the deviation (rather than the tolerance).
- Only one default over-shipment code can be set.
- In case that no specific over-shipment code is set at the customer or item level, the default over-shipment code will be used.
- It is not mandatory to set an over-shipment code as default;
- It is not possible to overship by default if there is no stated default over-shipment code.
