For responding to purchase orders or delivery instruction schedule lines via csv upload and if responses are already existing please note:

Prior to sending new responses via csv upload, the already existing responses need to be deleted, i.e. the schedule line quantities need to be set to “0”. If not, the already confirmed schedule lines will be resent with the new confirmation.

The clearance of those schedule lines is executed via the “clear selected planned shipments” and “save & send” functions.

The schedule response process unifies the response processes for delivery instructions and orders into one quick and efficient process. The schedule response process contains all demand schedule lines for delivery instructions and orders.

Note: demand schedule lines are schedule lines with date and quantity coming in from a demand document (e.g. delivery instruction). In contrast, supply schedule line contain the date and quantity you are confirming to your buying company.
