Delivery schedule

Choose between delivery schedule or single delivery per order line

Delivery schedule versus single delivery

Tradecloud works with a delivery schedule per order line. Each delivery line in a schedule consists of a position, delivery date and a quantity.

Some ERP systems like SAP work natively with multiple delivery lines per order line. Use the delivery schedule in this case.

Other ERP systems can only work with only one delivery per order line. Use the single delivery in this case.

Sending a single delivery per order line is only available for buyers at this moment.

Delivery schedule

Use the field lines.deliverySchedule to issue the delivery schedule of this order line.

Provide at least one or multiple delivery schedule lines. The total number of delivery lines is limited to 100 lines per order line.

Use the Send order endpoint.
