Please defines precisily what you mean? Planning a move is just setting the planned date. > What happens when we know that supplier will send us the goods before the > planned date? This sentence means nothing. The planned date of something is the date you think/known/expect it to happen. So if a planned date change because you have more information, you just change it. > Don't you think that both points can improve the forecast? > > >And it is prefectly normal that supplier shipments behave differently > >than other shipments because they are not under the control of the > >company but of external entities. > > I can understand that they behave different, but not why there are so > restrictions.

Otherwise most of the users won't enter it.

Wrong!!! You don't plan a move by putting it in a shipment. You plan a move by putting a planned date that's all. I think all your troubles are because you don't use correctly the tools. -- Cédric Krier - B2CK SPRL Email/Jabber: [email protected] Tel: +32 472 54 46 59 Website: http://www.b2ck.com/
