Issue key | Summary | Issue Type | Affects Version/s | Description | Links | Configuration Needed | Licensed Module |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
VDIST-917 | On time | Issue | 2.1.1 | The 'on time' calculation used to determine if a delivery is on time (used in the OTIF report & stats TV board) is too strict and will be changed as follows: - For fixed delivery bookings (where the from time and to time are the same), deliveries will be considered 'on time' if they are confirmed before the time or up to 10 minutes after. - Other deliveries will also be considered on time if they are confirmed 10 minutes either side of the delivery window. - If the delivery has a reason code with responsibility 'Customer no fault' (was 'other') or 'Transporter no fault' (new) then these will also be considered on time. | No | No | |
VDIST-855 | Pallet charging - lines with 1 CPP | Issue | 2.0.4 | Delivery lines with 1 CPP are calculating 5 cases as 5 pallets for charging resulting in incorrect delivery charges.
