PdcCalculation.ChangeDeliveryDate

Declaration

ChangeDeliveryDate(NewDate as Date, ChangeCode as String) as Boolean

Description

This method changes the delivery date of a calculation.

Notes

Two possible situations: 1. The calculation is in production: The delivery date of the calculation is changed to the new date and also the reservations, purchase lines and more are moved to the new date (The same functionality like PdC). All children are also changed, but with a calculated delivery date based on NewDate, materials and operations. Is a child calculation not in production, it is skipped. 2. The calculation is not in production: The delivery date of the calculation is changed to the new date and also the reservations, purchase lines and more are moved to the new date (The same functionality like PdC). All children are also changed, but with a calculated delivery date based on NewDate, materials and operations. Is a child calculation not in production, it is skipped.

NewDate: The NewDate value is the new delivery date.
ChangeCode: The identifying value for the change of the delivery date.
