Committed date
The delivery date the plant has confirmed against its current load and material position, not the date sales hoped for.
In short
The delivery date the plant has confirmed against its current load and material position, not the date sales hoped for.
Plants routinely carry two dates: the one the customer was told and the one production believes. Every delay conversation starts from that gap.
A committed date is worth having only if one person owns it and it is recorded on the order, where slippage is visible early.
Where SysOMS handles it
