The optional Customer Sequence Schedules module (7.5.4) lets you receive and process shorter term, more detailed customer sequence schedules. With the optional Customer Sequence Schedules module, you can set up default customer schedule details, then tailor defaults for individual customers as needed. You can also receive incoming customer sequence schedules using EDI eCommerce and maintain detailed picking records for all sequenced requirements.

Customer Sequence Schedules Workflow shows a typical customer sequence schedule workflow in a supplier’s environment.

The supplier normally receives customer sequence schedules into the system using EDI eCommerce. Then, the supplier uses the sequence schedule to plan and pick material to be shipped to the customer. Using the information contained on the customer sequence schedule, the supplier packs and ships the material when the OEM needs it and in the order the OEM plans to consume it.
