2. For Delivery Rule, 

The delivery rule settings made in the sales order or service order screen for each order item affect the result of the availability check as they restrict whether one or more confirmations may be created. The following options are available:

• Multiple Deliveries

  This is the system’s default setting for sales orders. More than one delivery may be sent to the customer, this means that the number of confirmations is not restricted. The requested delivery date does not have to be met, and the delivery may comprise the requested quantity or only part of the requested quantity.

• Single Delivery

  Only one delivery may be sent to the customer, this means that only one confirmation is created. The requested delivery date does not have to be met and the delivery may comprise the requested quantity or only part of the requested quantity.

• Single Delivery – Full Quantity

  This is the system’s default setting for service orders. Only one delivery may be sent to the customer, this means that only one confirmation is created. The requested delivery date does not have to be met but the delivery must include the requested quantity. If this is not possible, the system issues a confirmation with zero quantity.

• Single On-Time Delivery

  Only one delivery may be sent to the customer, this means that only one confirmation is created. The requested delivery date has to be met, but the delivery may comprise less than the requested quantity.

• Single On-Time Delivery - Full Quantity

  Only one delivery may be sent to the customer, this means that only one confirmation is created. The requested quantity has to be delivered at the requested delivery date. If this is not possible, the system issues a confirmation with zero quantity.

Note that you can display the Simulated Confirmation Schedule hidden column for any of the “single” delivery rules. It simulates the earliest delivery date and quantity for each item to show earlier possible delivery dates.
