Schedules

The Schedules tab contains information about award shipment schedules. You must have one row for each schedule you attach to a document line. Each row contains the location, quantity, and dates for each shipment schedule. Oracle CLM Purchasing uses this information to record delivery schedule information for awards.

Use the Schedules tab to specify inventory organizations, ship-to locations and the date you want your supplier to deliver the items on the purchase order line. An award line with a quantity of six items can, for example, have two scheduled shipments on separate dates.

Click the Schedules tab to search for your shipment details. You can search by Supplier, Buyer, Item or Location. You can add additional search criteria to your search by using the Add Another LOV and selecting the fields from there. Click Go after you have selected an additional search criteria. Some of the additional search criteria you can user are: Order Date, Effective Date, Description, Document Style, FSC/PSC, MDAPS/MAIS, NAICS, Operating Unit, etc.

Enter schedule details: Schedule, Locations, Organization (Org), Quantity (Qty), Need-By Date, Period of Performance Start Date and Period of Performance End Date. For service lines, period of performance dates is the time period (start and end date) in which the service will take place. A line may not have both a Need-By Date and a Period of Performance Start Date / Period of Performance End Date.

To expand the schedule to full page view, click the Actions Update icon.

The Schedules page enables you to enter the following information:

Shipping region

The Shipping region enables you to enter the shipment related details. Select a location that the goods will be shipped to / services will be performed from the Location LOV. The Organization is automatically defaulted. The Delivery Event is defaulted from the line details (Shipping region). The delivery event values are:

When the Delivery Event is selected (that is, not blank), the Period, Promised Period field values default from the line. Enter values for the Period and Promised Period fields and then select a duration from the LOV (days, weeks, or months).

If you select After First Article Test Approval or After Production Lot Test Approval, none of the dates (Need-By Date or Period of Performance Start Date or Period of Performance End Date) are calculated for you because you need to enter them manually. Multiple schedules can be added here and you need to enter the dates for individual schedules.

If you have selected After Date of Contract or After Notice of Award and wish to have the system calculate the Need-By Date, enter a value for the Period. When the award is approved, the Need-By Date is calculated as Effective Date + Period and the resulting value is displayed as read-only in the line.

If you have selected After Date of Contract or After Notice of Award and wish to have the system calculate the Promised Date, enter a value for the Promised Period. When the award is approved, the Promised Date is calculated as Effective Date + Promised Period and the resulting value is displayed as read-only in the line.

Enter a Period of Performance Duration in days, weeks, or months. When you enter a Period of Performance Duration, the Need-By Date will not be calculated.

Period of Performance Dates Validation for Severable Services

If the award line type (Setup > Purchasing > Create Line Type page) is set to Severable Services (those services when stopped midway, the executed part of service is complete in itself and is measurable), then the period of performance dates need to be validated.

In the Schedules details page, identify the Period of Performance Start Date and Period of Performance End Date. If there are multiple schedules, identify the earliest start date and latest end date.

If the difference between the earliest start date and the latest end date is greater than 12 months, an error message is displayed, provided the POP Exception Reason field is blank.

If the difference between the earliest start date and the latest end date is less than or equal to 12 months:

Global Updates for Schedules

Global Update enables you to add common field values for multiple lines or update common field values for multiple lines on draft CLM documents.

Navigate to the Awards Schedules tab. Select one, multiple, or all lines (use the Select All link) and then click Global Update. The Global Update Shipments page displays with the fields that you can update for multiple lines.

If you want to add a new value to the schedules, such as Need-By Date or Receipt Routing, enter the value in the Global Update Shipments page and click Apply. If you want to update / replace the original field value(s) with a new field value, such as Location, select or enter the new field value and click Apply. A message confirming that the update was successful displays in the Update CLM Award page. You can navigate to individual schedules to verify that the update has taken place for the fields you specified.

Note: You cannot blank out any existing values using Global Update. You can only update add or update a value.
